During the demo, Molyneux and his volunteer, Dimitri, taught milo how to skip rocks and helped him clean his room. At one point, Milo expressed sadness over a recent move. Dmitri cheered him up. The volunteer even asked Milo to squash a snail. After a moment of hesitation, Milo did so.


I highly doubt that guy was a volunteer. His name is the same a Milo and Kate's codename, so look like a poorly planned stunt.

Also prior to reading this, the idea vaguely interested me, but it now sounds like one of the lamest games ever made. Snail squashing, WTF? Regardless of what high-tech stuff it has in it, I am not getting a game that is that dull.

what was that about Annie Lennox?



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

Molyneux finished the demonstration by talking a little about the rest of the game. The tutorial will last for about three quarters of an hour, at the end of which the player will be recognised by the game. From then on, it'll open up and be less "on rails", with the player able to take Milo on more, darker, adventures.

Heres another, more interesting tidbit.  And one that will probably be utilized by many a Natal game:

 

Lastly, Molyneux departed with one intriguing nugget of information about the title. He wouldn't say when it was going to be released (I'd put money on Christmas 2011 -- Microsoft isn't going to want this one hanging behind Kinect's release too much), but he did disclose that Milo's mind won't be on the disc -- it's in the cloud, and gets much smarter the more people use it.

Why do I think this will be a hit with the pedos?  Hey Milo, wanna "play"?

They are really loser's if they stoop that low...



Love the product, not the company. They love your money, not you.

I'm stoked for Kinect and this is amazing technology but this is still kinda terrifying.....especially Milo living in the cloud and growing smarter.....holy crap Skynet anyone?
