Capcom Announces first Kinect title

Straight from the Tokyo Game Show Capcom announces it's first game for the Kinect system

[NabikiTendo]

capcom has also announced that they have officially killed the devil may cry franchise and turned it into some bs twilight mutation.

[DoctorXpro]

I like DMC new guy, what I dont like is his name.

[WildArmed]

lmfao.
I think alot of people are mad mainly coz it's Dante..
Dante's old look was awesome nough, didn't really need a change.

But i guess this is a 10 year old dante.. that's why he looks.. weird x_x
I've accepted it.. *sighs*

[ArmrdChaos]

He looks like he sang for the Cure....but on topic...curious to see how they will pull this game off.

[ConanOBrien]

the casuals will get mad

[MGRogue2017]

... Anyone that plays this is going to look like a melon in their own living room.. Just imagine what the neighbours are going to think when they see you in the window marching around & waving your arm about like a mad man

ffs, ridiculous.. They'd think you lost the plot. At least with PS Move, you actually look like your playing a game 'cause your holding a controller

Oh and let's not forget mum & dad.. They'll want to have a go aswell :D

Embarrising >.<

[Godmars290]

Don't have any idea what gameplay even looks like. Supposedly, it even uses a controller.

But I still expect it to play like Ring of Red: you get 1-2 squads of regular troops that support your mech. Will probably use gestures to control them and a controller for the mech.

[yourfather]

no one care what you playing look like

[kaveti6616]

Yes, let's all stop and consider what our neighbors think of us.

There are a lot of good arguments against Kinect, such as the fact that the hardware is poor and choppy and inaccurate.

But then you have to bring up something as irrelevant as what my goddamn snoopy neighbors would think if they saw me doing something.

Jeez, if you're going to fucking troll, bring something to the table.

[beardpapa]

haha, like that man that was arrested for being nude in his own home because his snoopy female neighbor saw him through the window and called the cops.

[Schobeleth]

That it makes no sense that this game will support kinect? The franchise did bad and sold even worse because it was a Xbox exclusive. It's a game with eastern appeal clearly and it's only being used to push 360s in the east. So dumb, in doing so, they fuck over PS3 users (and where any mech fans could possibly be)

It's easily one of the most hardcore mech franchises out there and it will support kinect, via no controls? Even if the kinect controls are optional (hopefully) I still can't see this going well.

[kaveti6616]

"So dumb, in doing so, they fuck over PS3 users (and where any mech fans could possibly be)"

Why should Microsoft care that it's fucking over PS3 users? The whole purpose behind this is so that Microsoft can attract more gamers.

If you like mech games and you just sit on your thumbs and curse Microsoft for not letting it go multiplat, that's your problem.

You being stubborn and unwilling to purchase a 360 means you're fucking yourself over.

[Schobeleth]

I refuse to buy a consumer product that is guaranteed to break. I never buy consoles at launch until I know of their reliability, and exclusives/features are also a key part of it. I just don't see enough to interest me in getting a 360. I'm just mad at Microsoft at gobbling up all the niche games to try and cater to the Asian market.

[IaMs12]

Schobeleth No matter what electronic device you buy even the PS3 it is guranteed to break sooner or later its how electronics go. Now the 360 does have a higher failure rate no arguing that but its also the fact on how you take care of your console. For example, my friends PS3 broke before my 360, he had to pay to get it fixed i didnt.

[ArmrdChaos]

Well...then do your neighbors a BIG favor and buy some damn curtains and then you (they) won't need to worry about it.

Yeh...I am sure they will think much more highly of you waving a around a dildo looking device with a pink ball on the end of it...all while watching the TV of course.

If you are a that worried about what you look like then I doubt motion gaming is for you.

[xAlmostPro]

mis-posted comment, my bad

[-Judge_Fudge]

screw you capcom....messing up one of my top 10 iconic gaming characters buy making him an british grunge pansy boy

[xAlmostPro]

i think americans are more known for grunge actually..

[earbus]

Love it mech kinnect hell yeah.

[lowcarb]

I'm extremely excited to see what this new Battalion games brings to the table. Awesome trailer and finally my dream will come true for next gen Steel Battalion visuals. 2011 just got even more exciting for me.

[Unicron]

No sarcasm intended, but won't you miss the appeal of the crazy 900 button controller at all?

[Cueil]

but super expensive... you can emulate some of the broader gestures such as pulling levers and ejecting yourself

[lowcarb]

I doubt there will be no buttons for the game. Were still not sure what the Kinect features will be but in time I guess hey will let us know.

[PS3-247]

Don't do it Capcom. It will be the biggest mistake ever.

[Mastodon]

How could trying new tech and new angles in this jaded gaming industry be a bad thing? Should they be expected to simply sit there and remake Resident Evil 4 until they're blue in the face? Or would you rather they just stopped all development and worked solely on Street Fighter sequels?

Its a bold step, I'm interested to see if its on rails and if it uses the Kinnect & 360 controller at the same time. So far thats the biggest question in terms of all these new Kinnect titles coming out of TGS - will they use the 360 controller in unison and will they be on rails?

[DelbertGrady]

If it was announced for Move he'd be saying "Capcom and Sony rock for trying new tech and new angles in this jaded gaming industry."

I want to see gameplay from all of these new Kinect titles. It will be interesting to see in what ways the devs use Kinect as a control input.

[Cueil]

that it uses the controller as well... my guess is that startup and such will be heavily Kinect and movements will use mostly the controller of course you'll have to eject with your hands

[Godmars290]

From the trailer, the game looks very similar to Ring of Red:

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

My guess, you'll have infantry squads supporting your mech, who you'll give orders to via Kinect, which you use a controller to drive the mech itself. The gameplay itself will be more fluid. Take place on one full map with network and multiplayer options.

[PandemicPrawn0]

I like where you are going with this Godmars.

The scenario you are putting forward could lead to some nice tactical game play elements.

[slave2Dcontroller]

If u guys wanna be pissed at Capcom about this(for whatever reason) ur anger is projected at the wrong folks, u see guys, this game is made by From Software(Demon's Souls). Capcom is just publishing it. Are we really going to pretend this game is somethin to be mad over regardless to what platform it on??? Gimme a F'n break!>¿<

[pixelsword]

I could be good, but it will be judged closely and harshly. I would imagine that the Japanese will make batter motion-controlled games than the Europeans or Americans.

Just an odd feeling.

[Sez]

My interest for kinect has grown. At first I was only interested in kinect for my pc. Then when I found out they might make it compatible with pc. I decided not to get it. Now that I see a few games that has caught my attention. I may still get it.
