Kinects still exist? I thought they were universally destroyed to prevent the end of the world.

Motion controls died for a reason, ever hear about a game called steel battalion? Probably not, it was a mech sim that previously ran off a full cockpit controller setup, then they had the bright idea to replace the expensive hardware with motion controls, humans gesturing at empty air can’t really replace the precision of actual controls… it was awful and the franchise died

It wasn't all bad, there was this one game about raising a tiger cub. That was pretty cool as a kid.

I feel old though.

kinect is coming back its back on the menu mark my words the next exbox the ex bocks 2 will come with a complimentary kinect 2, 2 featuring 500$ console price where 50 of those dollards go to kinect 2 2 so the console ends up slower than the last one despite being the same price

steel battalion kinect goes harder than steel battalion for the original xbox. this is simply a fact.

For the safety of 9 realms, I hope not.

Though I'd imagine that kinect technology transformed into eye tracking technology, TrackIR or whatever its called. Pretty useful in sim terms

It’s average reviews were sitting at 38/100 and they haven’t made another since it’s 2012 release, most people consider it outright unplayable

How much credit it deserves is doubtful, besides Kinect obviously being proprietary there is some small crossover but VR has been on the backburner for decades and uses some very different technologies, VR was coming with or without kinect
