Microsoft: You're Going To see More And More Core Kinect Games

Quote :

Xbox 360 players are going to see "more and more" core Kinect games revealed in the future, as interest from developers "spikes" following a phenomenal Christmas.

That's according to the senior producer of Microsoft's interactive entertainment business, Kevin Unangst, who told CVG at the firm's spring showcase event this month that the core games revealed so far are "just the beginning" of what's in store.

"There are many [hardcore games] coming," he said. "This is sort of scratching the surface of what's happening, but we've got Child of Eden here today, we've got Twisted Pixel's Gunstringer... and certainly you're going to see more.

"We're not even a hundred days since we launched Kinect yet. It was very intentional with Kinect to go out and deliver blockbusters like Kinect Sports and Dance Central - games that resonated with a broader audience."

Unangst added that although Kinect games can be built with virtually the same tools and technology used to make core games, "we're going to do it in a way that's organic and natural to the game".

"We did not go out and say, 'we're just going to slap Kinect on and put that out there,' we don't want a bunch of add-ons - it's got to make sense in light of the game," he said.

"There's a whole host of things [for core developers], whether it's voice control, face recognition and all the tech that Kinect makes possible. Now that we've got it in the hands of developers you're going to see more and more core games.

"This is just the beginning."

Amen.

You mean just like on ''Feb. 24th, we'll be announcing some new hardcore games that will make everyone happy!''

Stop talking out of your ass MS. Just show us something.

I think in the future most people will use motion control.

Just a hunch.

As horrible as that sounds, you might be right. But then again we still have the core genre's at the right moment to save us.

I don't think it'll be horrible. It'll just be... different...and someone is eventually going to do it right.

Just look at what Halo did to console FPS games. All Kinect needs is the equivalent of that.

Assuming Kinect is even the one to move motion controls properly into the core game scene.

Yeah halo is great but then again it did popularize the genre that made call of fucking duty big. =/

Promises, promises. I'm not going to believe a word they say until we actually get to see these "core games"

LOL at above comments.

"Core Kinect Games" doesn't mean exclusive to Kinect. It means core games that support motion controls. KZ3 is labeled as a "PS move" game, and it can still be played with a DS3.

But anyways, ofcourse we are going to see more core games in the future. What I don't like is their inconsistancy. They have one great year and they follow it with a bad one.

The PS Move has buttons. Kinect doesn't. So I don't think it'll be as easy to slap on motion-control to Halo as it would be for Killzone.

No it's not. Think you got that the wrong way around.
