Forums - Microsoft - USA Today reveals Natal Name (Kinect) and Launch Titles

http://www.usatoday.com/tech/gaming/2010-06-14-vidgame14_ST_N.htm

 

It's called Kinect and

 

"

Among games in the works:

Kinectimals lets you train and play with 20 different virtual cats, including a lion, cheetah and tiger.

Joyride, a racing game, lets players use their hands to hold an imaginary steering wheel — pull your hands toward you and push back out for an acceleration boost — and their bodies to execute jumps and tricks.

Kinect Sports has six activities including boxing, bowling, beach volleyball, track and field, soccer and table tennis. To serve a volleyball, you mimic the real motion; in soccer, you can kick the ball or do a header.

Kinect Adventures includes a river-raft time trial and obstacle course, playable by up to four players. On the raft, playing as a duo, you and a partner must lean one way or another to steer. Jumping helps the raft reach special areas for extra points.

Dance Central, in development by MTV Games, brings a So You Think You Can Dance experience home.

Star Wars characters and iconic Disney favorites will be featured in separate new games being developed at Microsoft in conjunction with LucasArts and Disney."

 

 

Sounds...pretty meh

Kinectimals......

really ? -.-



I guess "Kinectimals" will finally prove Dogs are better than Cats as it will pale in the sales of Nintendogs.

Just as Pirates of the Carribian movies outsold pretty much every Ninja based movie combined.

So with that you have Dogs>>Cats and Pirates>>Ninjas. Confirmed. QED



I wanna see what Microsoft's doing with LucasArts and Disney. Could it be Kingdom Hearts of the Old Republic that we've all been anticipating?!?!



themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.

I can't wait to see internet videos of people waving their arms in thin air like a bunch of fuck tards =)

I hope that Microsoft has something worthwhile For those who are not interested in Kinect.

What an uninspiring name btw



Oh this is AWESOME! For all you die hard halo people, this is a must BUY DAY 1.



Why people expect something beyond what Wii is currently offering is beyond me. I blame M$ overhyping and ordinary people being so naive (stupid).

Oh and they name it Kinect...seriously is this the best they could come up with, its such a uncool random name.haha



lol natal
