All this for what appears to be shovelware...



At least MS is trying to make the game not sucked, they could have sent it on its way during the holidays but they want to ensure its the best it can be. Like em or not, you have to respect that.

Isn't the game still in a sorry state? I remember a thread from Carl just two months ago.

It's more like the game was in such an unfinished condition that it couldn't be released any sooner. Like having only a handful of playable levels and poor ones at that.


I dont know if its in a sorry state, but Amazon does have the game slated to come out this tuesday, so we will know soon enough. Maybe the game was that bad, but im going in with a semi positive attitude. They probably could have still released it in the state it was and not have made much of a difference. IMHO

My thoughts exactly, still waiting for reviewes, which I'll post on the official thread.

...And its still going to be a piece of crap.



Atto Suggests...:

Book - Malazan Book of the Fallen series 

Game - Metro Last Light

TV - Deadwood

Music - Forest Swords 

All they really need to do is realize that what I said back when Kinect was first shown to the public was 100% true and put normal controls on it.

The simple fact is... unlike wiimote/nunchuk (or move), Kinect CANNOT play a great number of genres. You need actual controls for most.

Kinect has far more interest for me when it comes to a TV system like GoogleTV or iTV that it ever will as a game controller. Visual and audible controls are great for this type of human interaction. For games, its just shit.

After this post of yours, I expect a bragging thread from you once this game is released. You could even turn this into a franchise thing. You know, the same way I do.

"I was right all along..." - That's catchy.

Ya know... I like it.



What a waste, should have took 100 staff off that and put them on a core title.



I'm looking forward to reading the reviews to this game :D. Still, I think that it has the chance to be a profitable project.
