Lol @ MS Haters. So far the gimmick called Kinect has sold how much? And have fun pulling up your radial menu in ME3 for combat actions and conversations while I'm using voice commands.

The move can do voice commands. The Kinect doesnt have that over the move either, try again. Its Microsoft paying for voice recognition to be exclusive.


I havent really seen Move in action (in terms of voice commands). I know because my friend owns one and im intending to buy it.... well... this comming christmas.  

 Heres the specs. The mic is there and its powerful, Its just that no one has assigned a job to it. As I said Microsoft markets their products properly in the US.

I mean, if Move have such "powerful" mic. Why dont they fully implement it to the ps3 system like the Xbox has with the kinect. And believe me, it works flawlessly. 

If Move have the tech, why does Sony ignore it? You get what i mean? 

Maybe, MS already has its voice recognition tech plus a voice "reg" library updated to the kinect it self? Why Move doesnt?

it actually does...


one thing people don't seem to get is that sony tried with this kind of tech already and moved on and for me personally i'm quite greatful that they have i'd much rather have them working on the types of games that they are working on now than kinect games

Truthfully dude, I dont know, but the voice recognition can spot your position in a room and provide echo cancellation so it can recognize commands. The fact that Kinect has three cameras instead of just one is where it has the edge just as a camera. The Move uses controllers to control its depth instead of infrared cams. Commands can be programmed into the move, but thats up to them. The tech is there, its just up to them to use it. The Move is a ball of gaming potential and I will have it when it has enough supported games, but I am def a fan of the tech. Kinect is also good, but much better at gathering casuals at my dorms. Tons of girls at my dorm who bought an Xbox solely for Kinect and Dance Central. I swear if I was to tell them about something else they would have a heart attack. Fun game though.


Yeah,it is isnt it? Dancentral 2 might be one of my favourite kinect games out there. 

Anyways. 

"I swear if I was to tell them about something else they would have a heart attack."

Sorry but I just didnt get what you meant there.


Other games. They dont play any other games.

What's even more terrible is the view count. You'd think that something officially from MS would at least garner a few thousand views. Yet, most of their vids have less than 1,000.


Well...it is a secondary viewing channel. These videos are majorly seen on Xbox Live. This brings me to another point, if Xbox Live videos are visible on Youtube and are official to Microsoft what the hell are gamers paying $60 a year for, outside of paying Activision to play Call of Duty online? 


- nobody pays $60, deals are open all the time for $40. 

- cross game chat, party system, pretty much makes it easy to see your friends and what they are doing

- Weekly deals on marketplace content.

Basically PSN Plus with deals but overall better. Again I still think your committing a heresy by paying for PSN Plus...goes against the PS3 gamer bible. 



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

We all know this game is gonna suck. But as a 360 gamer who takes pleasure on sales....this game will move a lot of 360s and forsure sell over a million. Star wars fans buy anything lol.

Funny how a game like this will put 360 over PS3 in weekly hardware.

Thats them. Microsoft sells Xbox Live at $60 so thats the price ill start at. If you found your way about it. PSN Plus gives you what you should be paying for and lets you have for free what you should have.

Again your pleading ignorance. Stores have $40 sales on Live every month and really you have a WHOLE YEAR to find such a deal so no real pressure :)

Just seems PSN PLUS is Live Gold in deals but lacking cross game chat, party system, and basically the seamless community features. Thus its a heresy. 

But this was neither here or there, but when I see Live ignorance I do what I do.

Wow ...

Lucasarts didn't make an exclusive lightsaber fighting game for the Wii in 5 years, and they produced this for Kinect?

That was Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Lightsaber Duels 

Was initially interested in this Kinect game but was turned off as soon as I saw the first video. The presenters do not help at all, only so much of them I could take, whcih stopped me watching the video so fails to build my interest in the game. Additionally if they are in the games' fan club, I sure dont want to join.

So basically , you're wrong R2. Kinect All Access  *********************.

And when I see PSN ignorance i do what I do. you can easily see what your friends are doing on PSN. just hit the damn PS button and go to your friends list, unless your lobotomized chimp anyone can do it.  PSN has weekly deals, had them forever. regular AND Plus.  Seems like LIVE is just regular PSN with a couple of bells and whistles thrown in.  I'll agree with you on cross game chat(even though i think its dumb) and hell im even with you on the SWs Kinect, but fans dont buy everything. Force Unleashed 2 says hi. soccer moms and casuals, they'll eat this up
