Hands-on Impressions of the Kinect 2.0 and Its Features

Microsoft’s Kinect motion-control device was the butt of many jokes during its last-gen run, not too unlike Sony’s Move controller. Many gamers dismissed the technology as a gimmick, and most game developers never figured out the perfect way to use the Kinect to enhance their game’s gameplay. With that being said Microsoft has believed in the device since its release, and continues to push its benefits on gamers whether they like it or not. Microsoft is so in love with the Kinect that they decided to make it a mandatory pack-in item with the Xbox One, which released on November 22, 2013.

Any games "better with Kinect" yet?

Sitdown3798d ago

Sports rival.... I personally can attest to the Wave Runner game.

I dont have a xbox one yet but the kinect for the 360 works great with the last mass effect. The ley to kinect is setting it up correctly you may have to do this more then once and If you remove it from the system its best to set it up again. I can almost control the voice command with a whisper, when theres more noise in the room you do have to speak alittle louder. If 2.0 is better then it has my vote.

Its very functional...............after a 4 week course on the subject of "Kinect 2.0:how it works and how you need to change to make it happy" , along with refresher courses over the course of the consoles life span................at a mere price of only $49.99 a month. /jk

I all honesty i havent met one person that i have talked to about the xbone that have said the kinect works properly, they mostly just dont use it at all.

rainhell773798d ago

Well you have idiots or stupid friends! Pick one

Sitdown3798d ago

That's probably because you don't meet a lot of people in general....

Bigpappy3798d ago

Obviously, that cam on the ps4 is not kinect

lawgone3798d ago

Sure MrMagoo, I bet you've talked to lots of xbox one owners since it came out 3 days ago. And they have told you, I'm those 3 days, they mostly don't use it. Uh huh. Nice try.

MightyNoX3798d ago

Here is your friend's problem, they're not using THIS Kinect.

Will Kinect 2.0 EVER be good as the first Kinect? :(

Nipples3798d ago

The kinect 2.0 ruined my life! Everytime I turn on my xbox one to play my sexified kinect 2.0 my nipples become irrationally pointy in anticipation, causing my t shirts to obtain what I call nipple holes. These nipple holes leave my shirts practically unusable. Since I got the kinect i have had to replace my whole wardrobe and have been forced to use pylons to cover my nipples. Now I am broke and unable to use my kinect. Thanks a lot Microsoft.

lawgone3798d ago

Honestly, I didn't like the original Kinect. It seemed like something that was mostly for kids. But I'm really liking the Kinect on the Xbox One. It's worked really well so far. Sure, there is a little learning curve but it's not bad. The major stuff is intuitive and the rest you can learn later if you want to use it.

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5063d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905063d ago (Edited 5063d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5063d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5063d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495063d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5063d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5063d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
