And what's in store for 2011

We have a Kinect Star Wars game coming out for next holiday [Christmas 2011].

I think you could just easily imagine being a Jedi and using Kinect to make you feel you're part of a Star Wars experience, building yourself up into a Jedi.

I've seen a bunch of the game and it's super compelling.

And another one next year is Forza, which is the best racing game of this generation of consoles... Those are the two games I'm most excited about.

Another one?

I don't think they'll call it Forza 4 if it's a Kinect-only game. I could see a real Forza 4 with some kinect features like head tracking though.

He should have said best non-vaporware racing game.

that would have changed what exactly

three random racing games better than Borza or Gran Snorizmo:
-Test Drive Unlimited
-Motorstorm Pacific Rift
-Project Gotham Racing 4
-Wipeout HD
-Split Second
-Burnout Paradise
-Project Gotham Racing 3

PGR4 can't be better with no rewind option. Disgusting loading.

They've already demonstrated kinect with Forza 4. The game tracks head movements and can be played with your hands stretched out grabbing an imaginary steering wheel. Racing like that isn't too accurate though but I imagine head tracking will be useful in cockpit view. It's obviously going to be designed around using a normal controller/wheel.

None of those are driving simulation games though. It's like comparing Dragon Age and Zelda because they both have goblins or some shit.

Any game with "Simulation" as a description is for middle aged dads who smoke too much.

I would say that rather than giving you supernatural speed and handling like those other games, simulation games feel exciting because of how realistic the limits of the cars feel. Most people like something in between realistic and arcadey like the codemasters racing games and those are fun, but they kind of dilute the meaning of "simulation".

I don't think the codemasters' games claim to be simulation. I'm referring to Dirt/Grid here btw. Both of those are my favourite racing games of this gen.

Of course they won't call it Forza 4,it will be a Kinect enabled Forza 3...arcade mode+bunch of Kinect related features,optional of course...something to make stards go into overdrive

playing Forza 4 with an imaginary wheel > playing an imaginary GT5 in your head

Gran Turismo 5 isn't imaginary, it has an official release date of November 24th!

Why the emoticon? That actually looked pretty good.

Lets just say if I want to play a shitty casual motion control racer I'll stick with Mario Kart...
