    Kinect Support

    Concept »

    Kinect is a camera and depth sensor-based peripheral for the Xbox 360 that allows users to interact with and play games using their whole bodies, rather than using a standard controller.

    The reason why I hate motion controlled gaming, for the most part

      So this guy basically plays through an entire race in thus Kinect racing game WIHTOUT MOVING A MUSCLE, and lands third place. I guess Microsoft wants to appeal to such a large fanbase that apparently that fanbase now includes dead people.

    Already a thread about this, and that one was kind of dumb as well. this isn't evidence that motion controls suck, just that this game doesn't implement them well.

    This is a problem with one game and not all motion controls. Also, this has already been posted.

    except the fact that all games with motion controls are basically this brainless, at least in my moderate amount of experience. It's a pretty good example of why they're bad, imo.

    I'm not much into motion control gaming unless it's some sword fighting game very well implemented. However, I still think that video is BS. Anyone can easily record the game their playing, then record themselves sitting there for 5 minutes, and put the 2 video's together.
