It was clunky/laggy and using voice commands wasn't 'common place' (although now it seems most have some voice activated devices now - Alexa, Google...) and felt odd - although 'Xbox On' was cool... Takahashi, Dean (September 5, 2009), "How many vendors does it take to make Microsoft's Project Natal game control system?", Venture Beat, archived from the original on January 11, 2010 , retrieved January 8, 2010 The Wii sold the dream of physically engaging with video games. It got people off the couch, standing and moving, turning an otherwise sedentary activity into something active. Its accessibility — through the motion-controlled Wii Remotes that took the place of standard controllers — made it an easily adoptable console for families and elderly people.

Kinect is a line of motion sensing input devices produced by Microsoft and first released in 2010. The devices generally contain RGB cameras, and infrared projectors and detectors that map depth through either structured light or time of flight calculations, which can in turn be used to perform real-time gesture recognition and body skeletal detection, among other capabilities. They also contain microphones that can be used for speech recognition and voice control.

It took the claustrophobic survival horror of the previous two games and focused more on the action, which fans felt was a misstep. However, the game’s Kinect controls did arguably add to the immersion, so we’re including it here. 2. Dance Central 3 Just like Kinect Sports , it’s pretty clear what the inspiration behind this one was. Wii Fit was released in 2007, and Your Shape: Fitness Evolved is aiming to compete with that game, albeit with sharper graphics and the Kinect peripheral at the core of its design. It’s a fun fitness instruction game with workouts from Men’s and Women’s Health magazines. 20.
