Also, the news the new SB is going to be on the kinect is...

what.

I dont even see how that CAN work. Brings a whole new meaning to 'do the robot'.

 Yeah, me neither. Could be a breakthrough in interface design or spectacular failure.

 Or both. :)

I also don't really like the WWII aesthetic.

 Same here. Especially in case of mecha/walking tanks. BTW, as mech designs are changed so much, I expect serious continuity changes or even total storyline reboot.

This whole trend of "swing your body around in retarded ways" to control a game seems stupid to me, I can't wait for it to die.  At least in its current incarnation, the technology available makes it suck.  Sounds like it will be on rails and you get to maybe look around and shoot and stuff.

I'm interested in this. I actually wanna give it a try. I mean, it could go either way. Maybe it'll be immersive and intuitive...or, more likely, it'll be a god awful mess of random "sim" actions and a few "arcade" actions.
I want to put a bullet between the eyes of every panda that won't screw to save it's species. I want to open the dump valves on oil tankers and smother all those French beaches I'll never see. I want to breathe smoke. I want to destroy something beautiful.
