Mass Effect 3 IS better with Kinect

MEG: "It keeps battles more organic. It develops a sense of urgency and intensity, and a heightened connection with the movements of your character, his action, and as a commander controlling a highly skilled elite squad. It created a sense of immersion that sadly the demo failed to when I played it on the PC."

matey5204d ago

You dont say the matter of urgency is what wiimote and COD/CONDUIT/ have had 4 ages and its zero lag Kinect isnt zero lag no matter how much money you throw at it and Kinect hasnt taken off as much as wiimote did plus the WiiU will have better graphics and support Wiimote+ 4 COD/MassEffect ect so who cares.does Kinect have argmented reality/panaramic like WiiU pad i dont think so

Aloren5204d ago

How did this article about voice command in mass effect with Kinect led you to a speech about the "better support" and augmented reality features of the wii U? We haven't even seen a game yet...

360GamerFG5204d ago

Man!! I always thought Nintendo fanboys were a myth. I am very pleasantly surprised. Pleasantly because you are hilarious

Aloren5204d ago

Strange question... is Soul Calibur 5 150€ better with an arcade stick ? is GT5 300€ better with a G27 ? is KZ3 90€ better with move ? is SWTOR 75€ better with a G13 ? is your PC 150€ better with a SSD HD ? is a phone 700€ better when it's an iphone 4s ?

It always is to some people. Maybe even you.

aaron58295204d ago

i dont know about the rest. But GT5 with a wheel, IS A MUST !

:)

Aloren5204d ago

I'm sure it is ! and I wouldn't play SWTOR without my G13...

So, yeah, exactly my point :)

AtomicGerbil5204d ago

It's a perfectly reasonable question, although the answer is subjective and of course some users will already have one, so the question is then pointless.

But, from an unbiased point of view, is it worth it?

OmegaSaiyanX5204d ago

Actually a PC is better with SSD :-D

But with Kinect its just another option to create a different sense of gameplay, some like it some dont. I have kinect and will give it a go although looking back Xbox 1 was doing this with Rainbow 6 and Ghost Recon via the headset...

Baka-akaB5204d ago (Edited 5204d ago )

all of those games usually control better with the associated controller . It's hardly the same case here with ME .

It isnt faster nor more efficient

Still i'll agree that it's up to each individual's taste.

Oh yeah of course, because when you buy Kinect, you area allowed to use it to play Mass Effect 3 ONLY right? What a stupid question

AtomicGerbil5204d ago

That's not what I was implying, wipe the rabid foam from your chin and take it from the point of view of somebody who doesn't already own Kinect.

It's a question that any reviewer may ask.

paddystan5204d ago

I have the device and I agree.

I liked the demo while using kinect.

The demo seemed pointless to use kinect as you only had 2 powers at your disposal, and they were easily button mapped. But once you start to fill up the huge power wheel, along with the power wheels of your squadmates, this is where the voice commands shine. Based off the demo, Bioware implemented kinect very well.

Baka-akaB5204d ago (Edited 5204d ago )

Ok then , but the comparison here seems to be with the pc version ... wich use the easily faster and more efficient hotkeys instead .

Besides i think the difference will be better displayed once we see people trying veteran modes on kinect and then on pc.

Software_Lover5204d ago

Well, when it comes to the pc then yes, hotkeys are probably preferable. But for me, by the time I buy the pc version of Mass Effect 3 from steam, It will be 5 bucks and I would have beaten it on the 360 4 times.

But your point is taken.

When logic meets EA it generates anti-matter ..... so try not to apply it in any meaningful way. Entropy is what matters in there !!

The community warned them this would happen but nope they knew better they continued with the live service push the made the art style cartoonish and this is the result

isarai_lee84d ago

It's always so bizarre when studios announce something super early in development under the suggestion of forming the game to player feedback, and then they push against all feedback heading straight for the cliff while everyone is warning them along the way

lol ya think? they're sending all that work to the cheaper labor market as soon as possible. and FYI, that labor market has exploded in the last 5-10 years. They have enough people to replace every single job. But honestly, EA is over filled with useless upper management as it is. You could probably trim 25% of their staff with no real loss in production. They aren't gamers, they're business execs. Just look at how many AI related jobs they're already starting to post. Its also hilarious that PIF owns Battle field 6

lodossrage118d ago (Edited 118d ago )

Wait,

The same congress that attacked Lina Khan when she fought the Microsoft Activision purchase.
The same congress that allowed Disney to buy 90% of Fox
The same congress that allowed Liv Golf to buy the PGA
The same congress that sits back while Paramount tries a hostile takeover despite losing the bid for Warner Bros.

NOW, the suddenly cares about doing what's "right" for works? Yeah, right.

thorstein118d ago

No. There were elections and some of the scum were replaced.

TheColbertinator118d ago

Different elections. Different scum. Same results.

rlow1118d ago

i know its a long shot, but i hope this gets shot down.

ZwVw118d ago

EA now owned by The Saudis and Ubisoft to inevitably be owned by China. In hindsight, once EA and Ubisoft started having their financial woes, they should have pulled a Koei Tecmo/Bandai Namco by merging their operations into one.
