Crytek's Xbox 360 exclusive Codename: Kingdoms is further into production than you may think, Microsoft development boss Phil Spencer has revealed.
MovieStinger: "Microsoft started their media briefing off strong today showcasing titles like Modern Warfare 3 and Gears of War 3, there was even a new look at last year’s Codename: Kingdoms, now renamed Ryse, which will run on the powerful Crytek engine (Crysis) and use Kinect’s motion technology. Unfortunately, like the Miami Heat in Game 2 of the NBA Finals, Microsoft’s briefing quickly started to fall apart towards the end. That is, until they debuted Halo 4..."
TechNoid writes: "Microsoft accidentally leaked their E3 line-up, which features the mysterious Ryse. But wait, wasn't Ryse registered by Crytek?"
I think it's already over stayed it's welcome. It can disappear again and never surface again for all I care.
that's my most disappointing thing in the whole show, I was thinking about it all day, they should've said that it's a Kinect title long time ago.
It looked good, but it was too short, and didn't it look like another rail game? I was hoping that it would use kinect to a minimum.
Waste of an 'excusivity contract' with a big name dev if you ask me. Expected so much more from this.
did you see star wars
if we can't get a star wars move game with the LS that melt everything i lose hope
GameDynamo - "The Electronic Entertainment Expo is a show on par with some of the most sought after trade shows in America, showing us all how far video games have come in the last decade. One of the heavy hitters in the show is, of course, Microsoft. It might seem as if there isn't a whole lot in store from the software giant other than Kinect games, but we've been surprised before, so we might be surprised again. So far, there are a few confirmed and rumored titles we've gathered from various sources that Microsoft followers should keep on the radar."
I expect to either see a whole lot of something(new games and exclusives hopefully) OR a whole lot of nothing(Kinect junk and the games we already know are coming) Considering their track record as of late I would think it will be the latter.
Obviously, I'm most excited for Sony's conference since I only have a PS3, but I always love to c M$ conference to c wat crazy shit they pull out of their ass at the end lol.
Gears, Forza and Halo? Again? Sorry but this is boring. MS needs to open new studios instead of shutting down.
Sony owns more studios then MS and Nintendo combined, thats why they lead the industry for 15 years.
Well, I think it will be exactly like the last one; two or so exclusives, some timed-exclusive map packs, kinect, kinect, kinect.
thats actually turned out to be an on rails kinect game. So its really forgetable now.

"Codename: Kingdoms, which has been revealed as being a first person “melee action” title that features “Kinect support.”"
That features support, doesnt say it is a Kinect game. I mean hell, First person combat alone isn't terrible. I play my Elder Scrolls in first person.
I'm hoping for new exclusives and IPs, but I fear most of their offerings will be Kinect shovelware. ¬_¬
2011 it is then
I bet the game will be terrible, they didnt even show anything. PC gaming made them rich, but now they are going console...
why do I get the feeling this is nothing more than another timed exclusive? I would bet that this game will be on the PS3 between 6 months to a year after it is released on the 360. Sorry but when it comes to game exclusivity I don't believe anything that MS says.
i dont expect much but lets see what happens
I bet its been worked on awhile. It takes more time to get the most out of a box than can only do so much. So they gotta cut as many corners as they can. Its so funny cause you got games like Uncharted 2 that get developed in 18 months, and then you got the most highly acclaimed devs who are supposedly the best at making graphics, that have been working for "awhile" on a project. I guess it just goes to show that devs do alot more talking than actually making games?
