[Official] Kinect - Over 4 million units sold!


Recommended Posts

I'm going to make a guess here and say the new dash should scale to whatever res you have, I don't see why it wouldn't look fine at 1080p or 720p etc.

All I want is a native 1080p UI, the only console that has that is the PS3. PLEASE XBOX!

I have my current system set at 1080p and maybe it's just me but I think the dash looks fine. What's off with it?

I doubt Microsoft genuinely gives a **** if people bust the NDA. Its probably more a formality than anything. If they were worried about leaks, they would only be doing internal betas.

Is what I was thinking. Sending out packs they knew this was bound to happen somewhere I can't imagine MS to be that naive.

They do, that's why there is an NDA

MS is very serious about NDA's. They have NDA's for a reason. They don't want to give competitors the upper hand or advance information so that they can be successful with a new product. They also want to test it in a every day environment before they release it to the general public so that they have a quality product.

I also abide by my NDAs. I recommend others do as well.

Yes, that's whey every time its been broken during game betas in the past, they haven't done anything to anyone :rolleyes:

suuure... as far as you know... I can tell you it's different, but the NDA prevents me from telling you anything so. But I'm not going to be talking about the beta.

I'm not trying to tell you not to abide by them. I abide by them as well. I'm just saying I don't think they care as much as you guys are assuming when its this late in the game. Competitors can't have an upper hand regarding Kinect. Nobody else is making anything like it or could even remotely do anything with any information before November when it releases. They aren't stupid, they know information is going to get out there NDA or not.

I would agree with that.

Doesn't change the fact that if you DO break the NDA, they will find you and they will ban you and boot you from the beta

Yeah I've not particularly seen any evidence of that when it comes to their Xbox betas. They can ban you, sure, but they can ban you for anything else they want too and they usually don't resort to that unless there's hacking or cheating going on. Think about it, there's not much information they could actually care to hide anymore, so to ban anyone in this beta for putting that out there is just to lose $50/year unnecessarily. They just aren't going to do it.

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
