The fact that Microsoft said all its future games will eventually be compatible with Kinect is a bit worrying. The company’s E3 press conference mainly focused on the motion sensor and gamers in general were left with a bitter taste that the corporation is focusing and putting too much emphasis on the peripheral. A Sony employee has taken notice of Microsoft’s plans to utilize Kinect for all of its future games.
Tim Moss, the director of Technology at Sony Santa Monica Studio – he was also involved in the God of War team – recently said on Twitter quite a hilarious jab at Microsoft by saying:
http://t.co/lJGpKM0 Thank god I don’t work for Microsoft !
The link takes you to an article stating the news that Microsoft will make Kinect compatible with all the console’s future titles.
Tim has a point, however. Microsoft is certainly putting a much too large emphasis on the remote-free motion technology. Case in point: during Microsoft’s E3 presser the company just put all their focus onto Kinect and even showcased titles that didn’t need it, such as Fable and others. Instead of displaying and announcing more core games for the console they decide to put all the buzz around a product which doesn’t need it that much.
