E3 10: Kinect Adventures! looks tech demo-y, kind of rad
Kudo Tsunoda and co. were on hand at Microsoft's E3 press conference to present Kinect Adventures!, which we've seen videos of before; we just didn't know it. This is the game that includes the river rafting minigame you've no doubt seen already. Yeah. While "20 unique Kinect adventures" were promised, we only got to see the aforementioned rafting game and an obstacle course-esque one. As far as launch titles for a device like this go, I found the obstacle game to be pretty neat. Players stand on a moving platform and need to jump or duck to avoid oncoming objects. The goal is to collect as many coins, or whatever the heck they were, on the journey. At some points, this required specific body positions and weird poses in order to collect them all. Also, while this all goes on, a camera will fly around at snap pictures of you looking super goofy. If you're a crazy person, you can then share these photos on Facebook. Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
Legacy Comments (will be imported soon)I just watched Microsoft's conference, and thought the Kinect was kind of cool. The only sh!tty part was that the movement was delayed. I hope Move is really 1:1 and has no delay... New Xbox 360 dvd cases are purple? Or are those just the K'nex.. er.. Conne.. Kinetic.. ehm.. "Kinect" ones? New Xbox 360 dvd cases are purple? Or are those just the K'nex.. er.. Conne.. Kinetic.. ehm.. "Kinect" ones? I just hope these kinect games aren't 60 dollars each. They dont seem to have high production values in the graphics department, and there's no way some of these games will be substantial enough to justify a disc release This game was my favorite, clearly showed me something that cannot be done on the other consoles.
