awkward and frustrating would come to mind before boring imo. at least that's what i've thought of the motion controlled shooters i've played and the wii/move is like 10x better suited to shooters than kinect.

But...pew pew pew. How can that be boring!?
Honestly, someone should make a snowball war game for Kinect. If I remember correctly there was an FPS (First Person Snowballshooter) South Park game for the N64. It's time for a sequel!

Kinect will always suffer one big problem when it comes to a completely controller free shooter, if you take it off the rails moving is a massive problem unless you incorporate something like this

How dare you bring up the N64 South Park games!  I guess I had some fun but I would have never purchased those unmentionable games.  Turok was 10x better FPS than whatever crap came out of Cartman's ass.

No shit. Luckily it wasn't devised for such a thing. When will people get it? Kinect isn't trying to be and doesn't need to be a total replacement control system. It's an alternative for certain types if games, and it works very well in those games.


You just blew my mind man.

Never played it myself so I don't know how bad it was. Turok was great, especially the second one.

No. Gaming belongs to the hardcore and anything new must cater to the hardcore.
