Kinect is on show at Gamescom today and NowGamer has sat down to chat with Kinect project leader Kudo Tsunoda about the device and how much of an impact it will have at launch.

Kinect launch titles such as Kinect: Sports and Kinect: Adventures have, so far, been targeted towards the more 'casual' market.

However, Kudo has reassured NowGamer that the Kinect launch roster will offer real value to all gamers, with 25 hours worth of gameplay in each game.

Kudo explained, "There's at least 25 hours of gameplay in the Kinect launch titles, which is more than most action games." The claim comes as many gamers remain worried about the core appeal of the Kinect peripheral.

25 hours? 0_0

25 hours of doing what exactly? I can understand Dance Central, but 25 hours of petting skittles? I think Microsoft (or Kudo) is responding to criticisms in hands-on previews about the repetitiveness and short time values in kinect games.

When I read this, the only thing that crossed my mind was "how quickly were people getting bored out of playing these games for such a statement to be made?"

I played more than 23 hours worth of Wii Sports. And that was because I lost the game.

@hatmoza: yeah I'm wondering the same :S I mean 25 hours? how? what? where? Are they hiding loads of information about modes and such (I saw this excercise or something mode on Kinectimals yesterday which I haven't seen before) or is this straight up BS.?

I'm sure there's extra modes, but I highly doubt its's anywhere near 25 hours for most Kinect games.

wow whatever dude. I wonder how much gameplay is in mgs4?

25 hours of pure LAME Sh** when u could be playing some real games or hanging out with friends , doing real sports or seeing real animals...

Kudo should STFU.

Lol. Interesting...
