At X’10 – I go hands on with Microsoft Kinect
One of the highlights of X’10 was getting a chance to go “hands on” with Microsoft’s controller-free controller Kinect. The various mini games in Kinect are actually quite the workout (see about 1 minute in the above video), and though there is lag, it didn’t seem to affect gameplay.
I also got a sneak peak at the Kinect friendly version of the Xbox Dashboard, which allows you to navigate the console with either gestures or voice commands. Both features were working spot on, and it seems that Microsoft’s goal of making Kinect an additive experience for the Xbox, has really paid off. One quick note is that the voice controls aren’t bilingual yet, but they are working on it.
