I wonder if they come with scoring points and achievements.. I mean gamer score.

Richdad6215d ago

I am sure I am not wearing one of these. They are not looking good.

jadenkorri6215d ago

preventing the spread of aids and many other sexually transmitted diseases...

MaximusPrime6215d ago

i wouldnt mind getting PS3 version if it is available. One logo on PJ will be fine, not many icons like the one above.

meepmoopmeep6215d ago

yeah, one logo, the picture above is too loud

Breakfast6215d ago

I didnt know ex-ro-bots wore pj's.

Fishy Fingers6215d ago (Edited 6215d ago )

Wonder if they have electric heating ;)

lol... here come the disagrees, lighten up.... I'm on my 5th xbox, I think I deserve the right to poke a little fun.

Saint Sony6215d ago

...electric heating and morning RROD.

Bigrhyno6215d ago

Well if it comes with RROD, then I'm out. My girlfriend wouldn't like it if she couldn't turn me on.

Covenant6215d ago

If you have this underwear and get the "red ring of death," I think a trip to the clinic might be in order. ;)

MaximusPrime6215d ago

i just beginning to wonder....
why the hell would microsoft release PJs?

Fishy Fingers6215d ago (Edited 6215d ago )

Same reason they release anything, to make money.

You be surprised how many nerds will pick these up, and if not, well you know what the MS staff will be getting for Christmas.

Peter Molyneux recalls how Project Milo, the Kinect game with revolutionary promise, died a death

Vapourware can end up being the stuff of legend, like Rockstar's Agent, Star Wars 1313, or StarCraft: Ghost. Without ever seeing the light of day, these games never risked the possibility of being played and forgotten, and instead live on forever as the subjects of lengthy YouTube essays.

Still, Molyneux's most notable lost game (or tech demo, depending on who you asked at the time) was arguably Project Milo.

I can see the potential of the kinect hardware... its rather impressive tech, but it was just not meant to be for gaming. If anything, MS had a huge missed opportunity to have used it for the AR/VR projects.

S2Killinit1d 15h ago

Missed opportunity? They lied. It was the biggest lie in gaming history.

merlox1d 10h ago

You can use the Kinect as an SLS camera for paranormal investigations. So it wasn’t a complete failure.

Remember Star Wars Kinect announcement? Biggest laughable acting seen

It was built on lies Peter...you know this.

isarai2d ago

Bro that thing NEVER existed, what we got was a concept video

Knushwood Butt2d ago

"Unfortunately, as we were developing Milo, so the Kinect device was being developed. And they realised that the device that Alex Kipman first showed off would cost $5,000 for consumers to buy.

"So they cost-reduced that device down to such a point, where the field-of-view...I think it was a minuscule field-of-view. In other words, it could only just see what's straight in front of you."

Hmm, exactly what tech was in it, that was cut, affected the development? It was only ever interpreting visual and audio inputs right? The xbox was processing those inputs.

Nor do I see how the field of view thing is relevant to the discussion.

isarai2d ago

Exactly! Tf kinda BS statement was that? i don't really see how fov is relevant at all, since when do you move all around a room while talking/interacting to someone?

Amplitude1d 11h ago (Edited 1d 11h ago )

This is entirely untrue. There was never a 5000 dollar Kinect prototype that could somehow use a wider field of view to scan and import generated in-game items and advance AI by over a decade. Anybody that fell for this was a stupid moron child, myself included. Anybody that falls for this lie now is a stupid moron child who doesn't realize that these people *only* know how to lie.

It was all Smoke & Mirrors.
