I was hoping this game would give me a reason to purchase Kinect but it just looks meh to me.

-LUKE_SKYWALKER-4640d ago

Yeah I am looking forward to Kun-Fu Hi Impact more.

I tried the PSN version and the concept was nice but felt buggy and unfinished.

If the improve the Kinect version then maybe I will purchase it.

subtenko4640d ago

This game looks good, but if it plays anything like the StarWars kinect game then Im NOT buying it! This is why M$ shoulda just made a frikken controller, but we'll see what this game does..

we need video of someone playing the game

Agree or Disagree if you Agree

I would love a good horror game, (it's one of my favorite genres), but I'm not sure that developers have enough experience with the Kinect to make one for it. Oh well, fingers crossed.

Drekken4640d ago

Kinect will not connect with the core. Give up and keep Kinect casual... seems to be what it works with.

yourfather4640d ago (Edited 4640d ago )

kinect-only not connect with the core i agree
but i think hybrid type can connect with core
yes maybe Steel Battalion:Heavy Armor is what Microsoft need...oh wait i'm in N4G

Dread4640d ago (Edited 4640d ago )

Dont say that, ur only allowed to hate on kenect and ms.

shame on you. If you were a real gamer you would only say positive things about Sony and negative things about MS.

once again i got your back SDF :)

BabyTownFrolics4640d ago

hey blacktar187 stop trolling kinect articles:

gamingdroid4640d ago

Yeah, I' curious to see how Steel Battalion:Heavy Armor.

Also looking forward to the new dash, ME3 and Ghost Recon.

"but i think hybrid type can connect with core"

But isn't the whole marketing of Kinect is that "you are the controller" and that you don't need a controller to play great games? A hybrid version game makes it just a PSEye clone that's three times the cost.

The voice commands of ME 3 are nice, but its been done before with mics in Endwar (for the 360/PS3). The Weaponsmith is pretty sweet in Ghost Recon (though curious how the game will be as a whole - haven't seen much gameplay videos for the game).

But as I said, if they do a hybrid version for a game, then the whole marketing thing of "you are the controller" is just a lie to get people's money. Still waiting for a good game that is Kinect only, and hopefulliy this one turns out to be it.

yes they already talked about hybrid Kinect game at last year,and you don't need to buy some nunchuk to play hybrid game because even 360+Kinect bundle still give you one wireless controller so i don't think we need to care about marketing if that's good for everyone bro

Maybe if it isn't awkward to control and broken because of input lag...

SkullBlade1694640d ago

I still don't give a damn about motion control. Not buying it.

Looking back to 2011 and Kinect’s Rise of Nightmares

Jack writes: "First released in September 2011, SEGA’s Rise of Nightmares was made especially for Kinect on Xbox 360. Among the range of games available for the peripheral, it is the least likely title ever made for the Kinect - there’s no dancing, no pets, no sports. (Though by its end, hacking through hordes of re-animated corpses here starts to feel like a sport.)"

rise of nightmares would make a good VR game. Surprised Sega didnt try and remaster it for PSVR. Or... maybe they are working on doing that for PSVR2????

Neonridr967d ago

considering SEGA hasn't made a single title yet for PSVR, I can't imagine why they would pick this one to start TBH.

Not saying I wouldn't love it as I'm a huge horror fan.

5 Horror Games That Deserve Sequels

BD writes: Have you ever fell in love with a television show, spent more time than you would care to admit binging on each of its episodes, only to find out that it’s been cancelled, prematurely and without any real warning? I have, I’ve been burned numerous times, and it never gets any easier. This problem isn’t limited to our favorite TV shows, video games can cause that same abrupt stop, and it often hurts just as much.

As much as I’d like to see another entry in the Condemned, Dino Crisis, or The Suffering series, at the very least, those games got one or more sequels. I’ve decided to eschew horror games that have already seen a follow-up in favor for those that haven’t — the one-offs that deserve to be more than that.

I don't think Alan Wake needs a sequel it would probably just kill it. Alan Wake was good because of its originality, American Nightmare wasn't nearly as good.
