i can imagine the kinect to be used during menu sequences...like those futurist space dudes using their hands to control monitors and stuff

pretty scifi

it will probably be broken though

i dont own a kinect so i guess its not my problem

While I doubt it will have a huge effect (no pun intended) on the gameplay, it still seems utterly, utterly pointless at this point. I doubt it will be a good addition to the game, but there's a slight chance it might be decent.

uglyest cover. doubt its fo real. mite even be a PR stunt... just to get there names out in the headlines.

even if it is in the game i doubt it will be kinect only... i think you could still play the game with only a controler. don't get all the hate and the fuss tbh..

I'm really getting disappointed with the yellow journalism on this site.

we all thought we'd be playing the next iteration of the saga of Shepard by now
Did "we"? Given that ME3 was only announced in Dec 2010, and that it originally had an estimated release date of Dec 2011, I'd be surprised if anyone thought they'd be playing it now.

Smart money says that adding this Kinect support is a major reason why the game is delayed
Really? Who's smart money? Or are you just trying to rile up your readers?

Please, escapist, do some decent reporting for once.

Ive got mixed feelings about this. As long as its not a "core" mechanic of Mass Effect 3 then I'm sure they can implement it in a useful way.
If they cant then they better remove it...period :)

Better with Kinect? Nice to know EA doesn't turn down the opinions of total idiots. NOTHING will be better with Kinect. Full body motion control is a terrible idea when it WORKS, but when it barely can register movements properly? Kinect was a worse idea than naming a console after liquid waste, and Mass Effect 1 wouldn't have been better with Kinect, let alone the faster paced sequels.

Well if THIS is the reason they delayed it to 2012 then they should release the PC version sooner.

Remember Iron Man and his computer? I think that could be pretty swell!

I'll see your 2 words and raise a question to everyone. :)

Ship control.

Question: By what means did Joker control the Normandy1/Normandy2?



Ok maybe not a ship...but a fleet?

Dude you are missing the point. The escapist said what they needed to say. ME3 + Kinect = WTF?!

I cant believe your issue is with there 'reporting' rather than the fact that ME3 will have Kinetc support.

So, now we'll maybe have ONE good game that uses the Kinect? You'll have to do better than that, third-party devs.

Get the Japanese to make us some good porn games for your 3D motion sensor device, and then we'll talk.

Give Bioware a chance people! This could be something awesome or a pile of dog shit, wait until it is out before you completely hate the idea.

Stop fucking with ME3, taking out rpg to make room for more action, although enough was taken out in the second, ME needs to be ME it's what its good at, then there was the thing when it sounded like they were making a bloody dating sim and now they are making it to a fucking Wii sports resorts. I'll say it again stop fucking with Mass Effect. Conclude the space epic you started properly and then go make some bullshit spin-off where Shepard goes cycling with friends and use all the kinect you fucking want.

Nononononogodno.

Please don't do this. If this happens, it will conclusively prove that BioWare has completely fallen under the control of EA indoctrination; a mindless husk, existing to do the bidding of the most soulless game developer in existence.

EA will not stop until their genocide of every good, promising game franchise is complete. They will then wait for a new form of digital media to emerge, and begin the cycle again.

God help us all.
