for those with Foxtel, Fox8 have a Xbox 360 program on 3.30am 15/06/10. Something big about the future of Xbox.
It's their Press Conference from E3. - http://www.kotaku.com.au/2010/06/wat...ive-on-foxtel/
Thing is, I would rather have a Controller of some sort for games , especially Driving , Controlling Weapons (etc... "Swords/Shields" & "Guns") and Aircraft "More so for Combat Aircraft". :(
as well, as the feeling of direct control, which Kinect (http://au.xbox360.ign.com/articles/109/1096884p1.html ) "by" the looks of it , will not feel the same. :(
Although, this is not Real Life , i also prefer it to be similar to real life, as in that it has something physically to control things with.
(etc... i can't imagine people: driving with imaginary Steering Wheels, Brake & Accelerator Pedals, Gear Stick and so on in real life cars and going somewhere, Pretending to pull the trigger to fire an imaginary gun ).... Buttons "or at least 1 Button at an un-preferable minimum" at least is needed for these types of games.:(
The only thing, i see that the "Kinect" tech is good for is replacing the Mouse and "maybe" Keyboard on things that need them (etc.. PC and maybe later on things like Moblie Phones , Ipad , Itouch). :)
But, with Better Graphics (which is why, i didn't or plan to get the Nintendo Wii):mad:
Although , i will put up with new things over time ... but, the graphic thing definitely crossed the line, i hardly had to begin with. :D especially "at the time" a Next Generation One. :eek:
That shouldn't surprise me...
since "as another poster has posted" they have got a deal with Foxtel to put channels "or" shows over Xbox Live for people with Gold Subscription... and i think you need to be a subscriber for Foxtel as well. :)
I'm thinking more minority report stuff here, but I do understand what you mean about a controller though when I think of shooters. HOTD overkill is a fantastic wii game with the hand cannon. :)
But that is also more suited to the ps3 games. They're all shooters, well, quite a lot of the, um, worthwile few games the ps3 has. ;)
i could be wrong here..:o
But i personally, think there needs to be more than 2 senses (Sight & Sound) to play a game and i believe it needs to be at least 3 (Sound, Sight & Touch) In more than just basic ways, especially if you controlling something in a world you are not physically in...
The only thing i can think of, that will be "true" non-controller gaming (i might add 3d as well) would be technology similar to the Holodeck (from Star Trek: The Next Genertion, DS9 & Voyager) and based on those shown it could have the potential of using all 5 senses, not just the main 3 (Sight, Sound and Touch) if not 4 (Smell, which funnily enough should be what they are focusing on rather if not as well, as 3D even though i wouldn't like it on some things.:D)
Mortal Kombat 9 (E3) trailer was posted the other day. Gotta say that it looks quite impressive.
It's meant to be a reboot of the series now that the rights to the game have been bought by WB meaning that the story takes place somewhere between MK 1 and 2. It even looks like the old 2D side-scrolling games of old with some very familiar backgrounds.
Release is set for March '11. Can't wait :D
