This is my experience for Kinect from my first go at Eurogamer Expo 2010 to the day it arrived, includes all the Lows and the Highs. Also my thoughts on what the future holds for this new piece of kit.
We've previously seen what we can take off the Prometheans, but what will Master Chief's backup be bringing to the fight in Halo 4?
Quite a lot of old favorites, as well as some new vehicles and an old enemy.
I know there were going to be mechs for a while, but seeing it actually shoot at that ship is so awesome.
Bit-Tech: Perhaps the biggest surprise was that the tide of console gamers is a cultural phenomenon which does not appear to cross every border. According to NPD's research, while the UK has the highest incidence of console usage out of all the markets analysed Germany boasts the biggest number of PC gamers.
France, meanwhile, is clinging on to dedicated hand-held consoles like the Nintendo 3DS and Sony PlayStation Portable at a time when NPD's analysis shows that gamers in most other nations have ditched theirs in favour of getting their portable gaming fixes on smartphones and tablets.

you mean like japan, europe or the US where the 3ds is breaking records?
People are ditching the 3DS so fast in the US, 3ds sales have doubled over ds first year sales and the year isnt even over.
No source, no truth
who approved this garbage?
Considering most PC Gamers will own 1 or more consoles , declaring the UK as a "console nation" is complete and utter bollox.
owning a console and playing the occasional game once in a blue moon doesnt make you a console gamer. Just like owning a pc and maybe playing some random flash game doesnt make you a pc gamer. Alot of pc gamers bought ps3s, its a blu-ray player and media hub that plays games.
I'm from the UK and game on nearly every platform I can think of.
But yes in general I'm more thumbs than fingers when It comes to my games.
Remember in December of last year when Paul Christoforo became the pariah of the internet? Ocean Marketing was at the center of a scandal that took the internet by storm after Christoforo exchanged rude, angry emails with a customer of Avenge Controllers, for whom Christoforo was providing customer service. I recently had the chance to speak with Paul about the whole ordeal and what his life has been like since.
If Gears gets the full Kinect experience I think a lot of 360 owners are going to feel a bit let down. Leave those games alone!
if gears gets the full kinect experience,i won,t be touching it with a barge pole same goes for forrza.its for kids and family the 5 min boredom deal breaker.then theres the tech head who wants to talk to it,i doubt it will get any better as sony has the camera controller patented to [email protected] ms decides to try that line then its a new advert of we need a controller
if its just an option like move for those core games, then it will be alright
I hope so. One thing I can see happening as time passes looking at this kinect I have here is the motor that moves the cam when it comes on wearing out. Send it to msft for repair seems a bit flimsy. Fun for the kids and none gamers though.
Bless him,he's an little baby.You haven't been playing long enough to have seen stuff like this before?The gameplay experience is very Eyetoy(yes I know the tech is more advanced but you do the same things with your old fashioned human body).
