This sounds terrible...

I still haven't opened mine yet. Been way too busy with other games and work.
By the time I play this, I'm sure DLC missions and weapons would be available, and the official Kinect for PC.

The mic on Kinect sucks.

sigh more memes here we come

This should be on PC also. It seems gimmicky, but I would still like to try it out.
by arcturus8406 Monday, April 30, 2012 at 03:54 PM

this sounds really cool if it works properly... in my experience, the Kinect's voice command function is spotty...
by RSTAR7824 Monday, April 30, 2012 at 03:56 PM

This sounds terribly fun...

Oh boy this will be unique...

Time to look like I'm rage quitting on a game when I'm really using the push shout on a frost troll, lol its' funny/awesome when they go flying off cliffs
by TheBiasedIrishman Monday, April 30, 2012 at 03:58 PM

I don't have a kinect, so this is a useless waste of space. They could have just made it a free, optional DLC instead...
by Bilbo Baggins Monday, April 30, 2012 at 03:59 PM

Seems fun and immersive, assuming it works properly.
by ThisFreakinGuy Monday, April 30, 2012 at 03:59 PM

I don't know... this actually makes me interested.
by EpicPizzaBaconWaffle Monday, April 30, 2012 at 04:02 PM

Oh f*** yes.
by A Person Monday, April 30, 2012 at 04:06 PM

Now I get to shout at my screen.... at it actually does something now!
by Hazza Monday, April 30, 2012 at 04:12 PM

It is free and some idiots are freaking out
by LoneWolfGamer21 Monday, April 30, 2012 at 04:22 PM

Dont care too much about the kinect since I usually play games far into the night after the rest of family goes to sleep so I doubt shouting will go over well with them. I also see myself going blank on half of the words of the shouts and getting myself killed.

I cant wait for the dlc announcement tomorrow however, need to remember to buy some points with my birthday money (still need to buy Mass Effect 3 as well). My hope is that the dlc wont be scheduled for a July or August release. The last thing I want to do is to wait in anticipation for 2/3 months for the dlc.

Here is to a May 8th release =)

Edit: Also, good luck to anyone who trys to remember all of the word to each dragon shouts =P.
