YouTuber Takes On Those Blasted Space Invaders With Kinect
Space Invaders was a pretty fun game in its day, but it could use a little bit of an update. Some enterprising folks in France have done just that, letting players take potshots at extraterrestrial enemies through the power of Kinect. In other words, some people have made the game playable for people who can't get enough arm waving.
The video, posted by YouTube account Derrgis, shows how it works. To move to one side, simply hold up a hand in the appropriate direction. To fire, hold out both hands. And that's about it. Need I remind you, it's Sunday?
