This video is a month old, but it’s awesome. As dumb as the Move and Kinect seem to me, I would totally get this.

I’m always collecting funny/interesting pictures and videos related to gaming, and once in a while I have to dump them here. So let’s go! First up is a Jurassic Park jeep carrying a companion cube.
Well I sat down ready to be impressed with what Microsoft would have to offer us at E3 this year and as I watched I began to wonder if they had built a 360 into a Kinect camera. Thanks to The High Definite and Uproxx for bringing us The 12 Best Kinect Hacks of 2010. There’s some really impressive stuff there! Most of it isn’t too practical yet, but the videos show us what could be possible in the future. They’ve got self-driving cars, lightsaber mods, and Predator-style camouflage filters. I’m definitely growing less hateful toward Microsoft’s latest bag o’ tricks. My favorite is this real-life Mario I’ve always enjoyed Bill Amend’s comic FoxTrot. He recently did a comic about Kinect. (Click for the full-sized version.)
The New York Times had an interesting piece recently about people using Kinect for creative new unintended purposes.
A very interesting video from experimenter Oliver Kreylos after the jump.

There the three of us were, with two representatives. Half an hour was the time we were given to try out the latest from Microsoft and I think it’s fair to state my feelings straight from the outset; I am not a fan of motion control. It takes away too many things; accuracy, fluency and in the case of what we have seen up to this point, depth in games, for the most part anyway. So was this new shiny toy (and it is shiny) going convince me to part with £130 next month, and will it set the gaming arena on fire like Microsoft would have us believe? Read on for an ego-centric preview from an internet troll!! |
