Kinect

So I started to... look at other technologies.

I spent a fair amount of time, about three years with Microsoft, trying to program the Kinect camera to capture everything that I was seeing with my eyes.

And I was very fortunate in that regard because we had one of the top 12 programmers for the Microsoft Kinect.

And we spent about three years trying to perfect this.

And what we ended up with was a product that still had about a 25% error rate.

So, that's what I think happened to Mass Effect Andromeda.

And I tell you, when I played Mass Effect 3, for an example, I bought it for Xbox and I have a Kinect.

So what you can do with your Kinect is it have voice control so you can say when you're in a cut scene, it gives you options on what to say so that way your character can say what you just said.

So, is like you're kind of the commander, in a way.

So that part was, it was okay.

It's radar.

Remember 15 years ago, 20 years ago, Kinect and the Microsoft video game consoles, all of them, Sony, you name it, where you like do the game and you dance and it sees you or whatever.

That shooting out equivalent of radar through your house, it can see like through multiple walls.

It's recording everything, sound, video, everything.

Any sort of licensed car slowly disappears off the map, yeah.

Probably like a Kinect level.

Oh, actually, yes.

Actually, that would be good, actually.

How hard is it to actually get them to play it? Yeah, that's the really tricky bit.

Here's an interesting question.

Kinect games.

Where do you put those? Like Just Dance, that's...

That was part of all the other blunders that the Xbox One had with Donmatic.

The fact is, you had to get it with Kinect, and it was $100 more than PlayStation 1. was a death nail yeah like it that that's a big deal and now kids like i got i think of the children kids are not gonna get they're not gonna be able to get these things for christmas asking for 1200 consoles when parents are used to not even paying half that amount oh

yeah for sure it would

have been a big deal two years ago to hear that this was going to come in at 600s
