Thread: The mainstream convergence of Gaming

It is tough to put video games across on th as they're a completely interactive medium

I hate X Factor, i also believe that is what Kinect is, a X Factor of Xbox 360 but i believe we going to get some really bad game before it gets better

Out of intrest though, does Kinect have online capabilities? Because boxing my friends over live would be a major selling point (:

Whilst online connectivity is possible using kinect (essentially its just another input device), there isn't any game available that allows this - This is quite possibly due to the hardware being new and developers are just learning the ropes, rather than not actively preventing it..

As for down the line. Im sure co-op / Death match of avatars/characters will be possible (because that data will be on each 360/game already).. live action video representation of the person? Im not so sure.. (factor in the lag on the device in single player, then factor in the extra lag over the internet)

they wouldnt be able to regulate content on live video so it cant happen. it would turn into chatroulette where 4 out of 5 people are men with their cocks out, and if you cant beat them, join them
