I'd like to focus more on kinect on this post. Some would say that it's near impossible to make an "hardcore" game for something that is motion-based such as kinect. I myself knew that it would not be an easy task to make a game for the kinect; that would appeal to "hardcore" gamers.
That quickly changed when a certain title was show. Child of eden.
The creator of rez, and lumines has returned, and he's most certainly proven that it IS entirely possible to create a "hardcore" game that would appeal to that specific type of gamer. This video will help.
Ah, but what about casual gamers? Some would enjoy games that are easier to navigate, and easier to enjoy. The difference between these two types of gamers? Well, casual gamers are usually there for the fun. Regardless of the games outcome. Hardcore gamers however; are a more "take no prisoners" sort. They still have fun, but they generally take the outcome of the game more seriously.
While Child of eden is more likely to appeal to the hardcore--something like kinectimals is more likely to appeal to casual gamers.
Kinectimals?
Cute, is it not?
I find it funny that when some gamers see this; they call it the end of gaming. Certain individuals need to understand that not all games will involve guns, and or shooting things with guns. If such things are not involved; then such items as these are automatically classified as "gay."
