    We got a kinect for Christmas and one day it just... Disappeared. Gone. Without a trace. And it never made sense to me. Until today. Bill Gates BROKE INTO MY HOUSE AND TOOK MY KINECT TO COVER UP HIS LIES.

    My sister and I wanted a Wii for years (*all* of our friends had one) and somehow our parents translated this into “Surely they want an Xbox Kinect” even though we’d never even heard of it, and the way we found out we’d gotten it-at the end of the day on Christmas because it was too stuck behind the tree for us to see earlier-feels fitting.
    Also Kinectimals personally betrayed me by crashing and losing my save data on the second-to-last sub level on the final ice mountain and I have never forgiven Microsoft for it. I still don’t know how the game ends

  • @emoryh

    As a child I spent hours on these games and actually 'beat' Kinectimals. I think how it worked was once you explored enough areas with your animal buddy you got to like a mountain where you met a golden cub - I can't remember what animal it was. But anyways as a kid who wasn't allowed a pet, loved cats, and had a lot of time to kill, I greatly enjoyed it.

      They can always argue that it was going to be part of the game but they scrapped it. It's still shady, but that's the video game industry as a whole and it has always been that way. The best thing to do is not buy it.

    Dude I played Kinectables, and it was almost impossible to play the game. Like my entire family would play this game and no matter what we did we always failed the challenges and it was super frustrating because as kids you want to basically be friends with these animals and do the best with them, but it’s heart breaking when you can’t do the best for them and they literally get sad and depressed. The only time it actually worked was the app game, which was a lot better.

    I think the Billy Crystal thing was them trying to also appeal to the older demographic, which the Wii tapped into perfectly at that time. His comment about "not having to find the right buttons" really reads like that.
    I'll be honest, there is something to that concept if done right. I have the oculus quest now, and had my dad try golf +. He never plays video games, at least since he played Wii golf. He was doing better than me, right away.
    Kinect failed, obviously, but this general concept is finally becoming a reality with vr.

    To be fair to MS, the kinect was made of ground breaking tech. it was the first functioning and accurate point cloud tracking system, it could differentiate people in the same frame, even if they were partially occluded. it was blob tracking on steroids. i still see people use the kinect and point cloud tracking today and its been over 10 years. And on top of all that, they released an awesome SDK for the kinect making research a thousand times easier.
    i blame all of the lies and bullshit on peter molyneux and MS's marketing team for somehow dropping the ball on ground breaking tech that worked really well

I just wanted to make sure no one else could play it. I genuinely thought it was so cool. My dad also had one! I would also play Kinect Adventures there! I have a couples stories from the club specifically.
    Whenever I played the game, people would be walking in the background. Of course! This is a club. But it would always pick *them* up instead of me, so eventually the teacher had to yell at people to clear that area because I wanted to play the damn game.

    Thank you for this. I was also a dumb kid who was very excited about Xbox Kinect. The thing about promising tech in this way is that, especially for kids, it’s changing our understanding of what is possible and expanding our understanding, only to have it entirely crumble when it inevitably doesn’t work. But I guess on the other hand it teaches us not to blindly trust advertising or even live demos 🤷🏼‍♀️ shitty way to learn a lesson, but I guess lesson learnt.

    Remember when they had the “preview” commercials for the Kinect and one of them was a surgeon using it to change CAT scan views mid-surgery? That would have been disastrous if actually implemented anywhere

    I remember both of these games as a child and playing them RELIGIOUSLY
    Kinectimals didn't work half the time and turned into some weird lore based game and I played the adventures one with my brother and we played like two games, the raft one and the aquarium one, because the other ones just werent fun

    Fun fact: Kinects are actually kind of useful for VR now because they can be used for a cheap (but kinda janky) full body tracking.

      Yeah Kinects have been used in a lot of research applications too, they're pretty good at capturing positional data. Shite for gameplay. But good for research with some aftermarket processing and noise reduction.
