Forums - Microsoft Discussion - The Gunstringer preview: Kinect goes 'hardcore'

I'm in. Looks great and the previews sound encouraging. I love rail shooter, I love Kinect and I love the humour of Twisted Pixel games.

Looks like another rail shooter to me. The character just runs and avoid obstacles while the player waves his hand to rotate the camera and aim. This is not hardcore.


Call me a troll if you will, but I agree with this guy.

 

I just don't see how anything but rail is possible without a controller...


In the announce video it showed sidescrolling platforming stuff as well.



Hardcore? It's a railshooter with auto aim(just need to point at everything and they will be red and then just shoot.). Looks fun but too call it hardcore is not right.

I think it's time again for a debate about what is hardcore or not, cause really, how in the world is this hardcore? cause it has guns?

Thanks for all the great 360 updates Nsanity. You're just about single handedly keeping the MS board alive.

I don't know why he even bothers since it'll just turn to shit with trolling (see the above post) like every other thread in the Microsoft forum.


Perhaps "A Bad Clown" was not trolling. But at the end you are right.

It is so boring. A Microsoft (or Kinect)-News appears and immediatly there are the same PS3-Fanboys and say how bad it all is.



As 360 continues to shine, the hate will only increase...that's the only way some people know to respond to things that shatter their little sense of reality.

The fact that it looks fun okay, but those journalists calling it the first hardcore Kinect game... this is not hardcore, it's just not as casual as the rest. If they make something similar to Metal Slug then that's a core game, but this thing...

And which game are you thinking of when you say cutesy platformers that people found hardcore?



Sounds good, but I don't think the gaming press are helping the game by trying to make it out to be more "harcore" due to shooting or whatever.  That's just encouraging negative feedback and moving the focus from what the game's about and its own style.

 



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

I see the term hardcore in quotes to mean sarcasm. Like it's not really hardcore in the usual sense but in comparison to other Kinect titles, it's more so in that direction. People are using it to bash a little too much. 

It does look fun, I'll get it.



I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.
