Kinect Forza Demo: Do Not Want

TechnaBob: To show off the capabilities of the new Kinect, Microsoft presented a demo of Forza Motorsport, which will be released next year. The demo showed how we can drive cars just by putting our hands in the “10 and 2 positions,” as if holding a steering wheel. I think it also involves stepping on imaginary brakes and pedals. I don’t know.

[Al Bundy]

No.

Next article will be about how much they "don't care".

[FURY__UNLEASHED]

The fact that 360's 2 biggest games by far, Gears 3 and Halo: Reach, do not have Kinect support, nor do the developers plan to implement it, proves Kinect is NOT optimal for hardcore games.

On the flip-side, the fact that PS3's 2 biggest shooters, KZ2 and SOCOM 4, have FULL PS Move support proves PS Move IS optimal for hardcore games.

is not picking up on the fact that this is "demo" was fake.

Watch the hand on-screen move before the guy's hand at 3:00.

Microsoft is the only gaming company passing off fake "demos" and fake endorsements.

What does that say about their confidence in their own products?

[Snakefist30]

My Dad will make fun of me If I do this kind of things like waving my arms and legs around like an idiot.SERIOUSLY!!!!

This is what Al Bundy thinks of Kinect...

lmao BUBS FOR YOU
shit i rofled lol

[NYPunkster]

So checkout the hand movement 3:00 - 3:04 oops! Another fake demonstration. lol

[twostep18]

holy sh!t lol
its starts movin like 5 sec b4 his hand
good observation
bubs

[rbrtchng]

Another fake demo. I'm kinda pissed about this sort of shit that MS pull now.

[Karum]

That's a pretty good spot there....clearly not real.

If there is any lag in the game/demo it is supposed to lag behind you...not you lag behind the movements you're supposed to be making in the game.

Although in saying that I would expect that kind of thing to work as demo'd when they get it finished, I doubt it's beyond the capabilities of Kinect to actually accomplish what they were trying to show.

Still pretty fail being showed up like that though, basically the 2010 version of Milo.

[Pandemic]

My arms would get tired by just holding them up for the whole race...

[jakethemuss]

To accelerate your car you make noises

"VROOOMMMMMM" or "vroom"

This combined with the hands for a wheel create the ultimate driving experience.

[SillySundae]

.
brakes too!!!

" SCREEEEEEECHHHHH! "

[badz149]

"user experiences that could not be delivered until now"?? - how hard is it to do THAT using normal controllers?

[astar123456789]

the hole thing on kincet leave the way it was

[Paradise Lost]

Wow you look really retarded trying to look at the car.

[Tony-Red-Grave]

microsoft should stop its bleeding shit everywhere and anywhere in its hardcore fans section. realky this is just terrible and im not putting move into the convo since its solely kinect

[twostep18]

dude is acting
hes not even playing that sh1t
so annoying

[bjornbear]

first time I saw it i genuinely thought he was playing it.

this is the 3rd fake "game" MS shows for Kinect

no wonder they don't present a price, they know it will fail

[weazel]

Why do they keep on pulling the acting nonsense. Either flat out state its conceptual / target experience, or don't show it until its ready. This crap just patronises everyone.
"..mmm,good job."

[BubZ-SkullY]

the thing i hate most in this vid, is when the dude stepped back, the camera moved forward?????? i don't understand how this is possible

[Newtype]

Wow, that's so much BS. Acting again.

[karl]

the guy didnt even touch the other cars...

so perfect that i dont believe it..

[level 360]

Utter rubbish and a load of dung heap for this type of genre.. might be good on a kiddie racing game but not the type that most adults play where absolute connection to the way you drive and sensitivity to varied simulated road surfaces is an absolute must.

[soul899er]

Omg obvious acting is obvious -______- I wish they wouldve shown this thing when they were ready..

[Michael-Jackson]

Forza is not a real driving simulator, so this is ok.

[iamgoatman]

Ignorant much?

And what do you think IS a real driving simulator?

[ChronoJoe]

Perhaps a game that doesn't have auto-steer permanantly stuck on? And you'd know Forza has that if you were at all interested in simulated racing, but instead you're just trolling. Go to any racing sim community and see if they take Forza seriously, at best it passes time till GT5.
