Like how? How is it going to be incorporated into core games to make them actually better? Its been 4 years and we haven't seen a single instance.

lean feature in battlefield? useful tactic in the game. You can use Kinect to call timeouts, sub players and run plays in 2k without having to lift a finger. I'm assuming the same goes for madden. This shyt can be very useful when done right...it's not a gimmick if it's used in games nikkas fukk with...when it's only used for something like kinect sports nikkas will be quick to say..."ahh look...it's the only time we get to use kinect" when that's not the case.

Devs just need to be creative with the Kinect and welcome it with open arms. Limiting it to minor features like "pause" or "jump" in games isn't really putting it to use. I'm not even talking about splitting controls 50/50 between the Kinect and a controller...but they can apply it a bit more into games. I think it has endless possibilities and uses.

lol. lean feature really, breh? calling time outs? those are small trivial things easily handled by pressing a button. As in the amount of time and energy put into the Kinect is not worth being able to call a time out instead of "lifting a finger" aka pressing the button next to your thumb. You're talking crazy, man. None of that shyt makes Kinect a worthwhile thing to even have.

BF4, Madden, NBA2k, Forza to navigate instantly to all the various menus the game has
The system, Xbox Fitness, Xbox TV which will have interactive features, Fortaleza Glasses make use of it as well

So basically this bytch nikka just wants to say "Nah, nothing they do will work" even tho he hasn't used it in any of these games he's hating on
I guess he has to stay true to the thread title, regardless of what info is shared :manny:

small trivial things easily handled by pressing a button? I play 2k14 24/7 and it's a process for me to do my tweaks with subs and timeouts because of how serious I take the game. There are times when I don't want to have to go into the menus or bring up the in-game subs on the screen while i'm trying to run a play...the Kinect comes in handy with this. No menus, no pop-ups, no pausing the game (especially if i'm playing with someone else) and no wasting my shot clock going through subs on the court.

your thinking small...it's why you don;t understand where i'm coming from. Anything that makes the experience simpler in terms of controls is a plus in my book.

fukking Madden has a million options pre-snap on both offense and defense...you telling me it wouldnt be simpler to use your voice to do all those tweaks to your team instead of pressing a bunch of street fighter combos just to make your DB spy the qb?

Okay. So they should keep pumping money into Kinect because you can audible with your voice and call a time out with it as well. Gotcha. Thanks for the informative lesson on "thinking big".

Japan, but from the 989
I don't blame the console itself...I blame the people behind it. The old fukks who thought they could dictate the video game market rather than cater to it. That's why it's going to fail. They have handicapped themselves from the beginning. It's like someone trying to come out with a new VCR in a Blu-Ray world.

Can't speak on the 2.0 but the hype for the first Kinect died down super fast for me. I was :gladbron: over voice commands in the menu, doing audibles in madden and voice shyt in 2k. Wasn't as responsive as you'd think and like someone said earlier it was way easier to just use my thumb.

Had fun with the first kinect sports though :whew: broke my light from the ceiling getting into that volleyball

Sony Playstation, PS2 (GOAT system), PS3 started slow but snatched the crown back, and now PS4.

Xbox has a spark when it started, but yeah....
