It’s a showcase for the worst that Kinect has to offer, where nearly every gesture is either ignored or misinterpreted – often with game-ending repercussions.
Ever since a new Steel Battalion for Kinect was announced, we have been wondering how exactly the original game's 40 plus button controller would translate into motion controls. Now we have a much better idea.
The Kinect/controller hybrid was on display at Microsoft's Spring Showcase, and we had a chance to try out the novel motion controls. Also check out the game's new trailer.
The original Steel Battalion required an expensive controller that
looked as complex as an aircraft’s cockpit. From Software’s sequel to
this mech combat game only requires a Kinect, but does that mean it will
be easier to control?
