Kinect isn't even out yet and everyone has determined what Kinect will and will not be used for. Nobody know what is in the future for Kinect so lets give it a little time. I for one hope they do headtracking for 3D that was demonstrated in that youtube video. It would be a sweet add on to games like Gears and Halo and I wouldn't have to buy a 3D enabled tv and glasses.

uh....3D headtracking is not the same as a 3D tv, thats like comparing planes to windmills.


I didn't say it was. I'm saying I won't have to buy a new tv just to experience 3D. Watch this vid.

that is still not what 3D tvs do >_>;

Sigh I didn't say it was the exact same thing as a 3D tv. If the 3D effect can be produced in games without having to use expensive 3D tvs and equipment then I'm all for it. With headtracking its possible to get the 3D effect. You are saying I'm wrong? Was I watching a fake youtube video? Explain how I don't know what I'm talking about genius.


but the thing is, this is not the 3D effect, its just you moving in 3D space, just like every other 3D game ever created, just with motion sensoring to move this time instead of analog sticks.

3D effect is that the scene itself is rendered in 3D and that.... putting it simply , stuff pops up out of your tv , its Stereoscopy and has nothing to do with head tracking and/or tracking 3D objects.

Severance is right, not the same thing at all. Though, mixing slight headtracking with 3D would be quite compelling.

On topic, devs should stick to what actually enhance playing instead of causing problems, complications and being overly convoluted. Luckily, in my opinion, this game and the harry potter one are the only 2 games for Kinect that look as bad.
