I really love the concept of Project NATAL aka Kinect but considering Indian Scenerio I don't think it is much useful.......

Most of us rarely play casual games on 360..instead we choose wii....Also at present the price-tag is really a bit issue and a worrying factor here.

 

I might consider it with a bit less in price-tag and full support to hardcore games....Thats wat Many Indians think..I suppose. I may be wrong

:thumbsup:

Microsoft has confirmed to MCV that Kinect will not boast any voice control functionality at launch.

 

 

Speaking at Gamescom, marketing manager for Xbox Live EMEA Robin Burrowes stated that “we will be announcing when voice control will be turned on in due course”.

 

Earlier demonstrations of Kinect had depicted users switching between various functions and selecting media on Xbox 360 by simply telling the console what it was they wanted it to do. The peripheral will also be able to recognise the voices of individual users.

 

Earlier this month the platform holder touted such functionality as one of the key reasons why hardcore gamers will be keen to be amongst the first owners of the device.

 

Kinect will launch in the UK on November 10th.

 

UPDATE: MCV can also confirm that chat software Video Kinect will also not feature as part of the accessory's launch. Like voice control, that will also arrive at a later date.

 

 

WOW :rofl:
