Forums - Microsoft - FPS on Kinect. Controlled with just 1 hand.

I like the fact it shows you can move in a 3d space for other games, not just a FPS.

I look at the video and I see clunky, slow movement with poor precision. Not an improvement over keyboard and mouse. And that's all I'm saying.



Not to mention that firing an automatic would suck.  All they use is single shot guns, anyone notice?

I'm not convinced Kinect can do it without being incredibly awkward at worst and unnatural at best.



I just sent an email to the address at the end of the video asking how he controlled the movement...



Sig thanks to Saber! :D

Those who actually genuinely expected Kinect to be better than Keyboard a mouse at FPS, not sure if serious.

@OT, It looks like a good concept, if well executed it could develop some very fun FPS games, I don't think anything competitive though.



Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

Guys, this is just some dude (maybe a few dudes) hacking this shit, I think it's pretty cool this early on. I consider myself a pretty casual gamer in the sense that I don't play a wide variety of games, I'm satisfied with the dumbed down experience the popular console FPS' offer. I think I'm part of a very large group of gamers that would really like to play a version of FPS like the one in this video. I'd be happy to at least give it a go whenever this becomes a reality, which I'm certain it will.



I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.

At 2:17 he states it uses less than 1% of its processor for tracking. I don't know if that is a lot, but it sure doesn't sound like a lot.

If you just aren't interested in Kinect FPS why bother with this thread? You may not like the immersion it may offer, but from the looks of things plenty of other people do. No need to call it a gimmick just cause you do not like it. Some of us like to get up and move around when we play games. Same reason I like wii fps, wich i usually have my arms in the air for. In fact the controls are extremly similar to wii fps, just without the analog stick.

Dude, it's not like he's doing the usual hit and run tactics (for example, only posting "This sucks").



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

I would love a FPS for kinect but when you think of all the controls that are required for a COMPLETE game I don't see it being very easy, espeicially making moves so unique as not to be misinterpeted by the sensor.

What we see in that video clip is the easy bit.

Anyway we shall see.



This is terrible because I don't want to believe that Kinect can be used for good games.



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.
