To Devs! Kinect game next?

If the next frictional release is horror then it probably wouldn't work on kinect. It's too family/group orientated and this isn't suitable. That's why the closest you'll get to horror would be an on-the-rails type thing like house of the dead or dead space extraction.

Motion sensor systems really don't lend themselves to accuracy. Even if they appear to, its usually pseudo-code that takes simple movements and gestures and represents it as something more complex to make it seem the user is in total control. I have done a little work in motion tracking and it's not as good as everyone thinks. Really it can only track big blobs like people jumping up and down and can't manage fine details like opening a door properly.

It might work on the wii since the movement phsyics in amnesia sort of treats the mouse like a wii-mote when it comes to grasping and moving objects.
