I think they are just using the engine.
But the cryengine 3 last gdc demo had a medieval style castle level in it.

they said "their new partner" (Crytek)

so it's an exclusive game by crytek for MGS

I want this remote free stuff at home. Totally sci-fi.

[Tap In]

the voice control of Kinect is spot on, not sure about the hand motions yet though

 

[Laa-Yosh]

That's kinda... interesting? Not sure what's the right word...

virtual world stuff... not sure where it will go form here but it has potential

the Kinect sports is definitely an active game considering your legs are involved.... maybe an actual exercise game would sell like WiiFit?

 

[Laa-Yosh]

The controls are awesome though.

 

[AntShaw]

Pretty impressed with the UI and voice recognition/navigation. Controls for games look intuitive. This is going to be a great Holiday season.

and there is the exercise game (UBIsoft).... wow, cool


they really are making the Xbox much more than a game console... an entire living room experience is actually evolving here

 

[AntShaw]

The fitness game will surely revolutionize the genre.

Whoa, Crytek fantasy game only for X360?

Microsoft ... the one company more intent on killing PC gaming than any other ...

 

[Scott_Arm]

Looking forward to the vid of the exercise game. Can recognize if you're wearing a jacket and when you take it off? Pointless, but neat.

 

[RobertR1]

I was impressed that it read her dimesions.

Yeah, arm length etc is cool. Someone better make a wicked boxing game. I want to fight you online.

Dance game by Harmonix.... they are hitting all the Wii points and with full body and no peripherals... nice.

Damn.. I may finally stick one of our 360's in the living room now, get a family gold membership and add Kinect to it... seems like what I was hoping Wii would have been, family-wise.

 

[Laa-Yosh]

All the companies selling input devices for shameless prices are crying now, no need for those with Kinect (I still want to say Natal although now I get the new name)

Star Wars game using Kinect !!

and Forza with Kinect...
