Were you wondering what would make you purchase Microsoft's Kinect? Well, if Ubisoft's Your Shape wasn't enough, Tetsuya Mizuguchi revealed his next game live at today's Ubi presser: Child of Eden. From what we can see, it looks a lot like Rez, albeit with gesture-based controls and much prettier visuals.
No release date was given, but we'll be sure to bug Ubisoft for more details as soon as we can. For now, we've got the official trailer embedded after the break. The trailer also indicates that Child of Eden is coming to PlayStation 3 (as a PlayStation Move game, we suspect).
Update: According to Mizuguchi, it's still being decided whether or not Child of Eden will be a downloadable or retail title.
indeed, so far game of show. was not expecting that one at all. too bad one game isn't enough to make me want to drop the *potential* 150 for a kinect. =/
This game has convinced me to get the Playstation Move. Especially with the other Move games coming out too, but this pushed me over the edge. I loved Rez.
There wasn't any actual gameplay footage in that trailer so I'll reserve my criticism for now. However, if the game can deliver on the concept of what the trailer is showing then I'm definitely interested. This is probably the only Kinect game announced so far that has really piqued my interest.
Are you guys serious? It looked like an Indie live game. If it was 5 bucks, it'd be great! Otherwise, you might as well just stick with Fl0w or Geometry wars
@(Unverified) um, do I have to pick? This looks beautiful, and seems to be the successor to Rez, which I absolutely love. Besides, how many games can you name where motion controls are more than a gimmick or a forced feature onto an existing formula? If anyone can do it, it's Tetsuya Mizuguchi
I don't care how much the Move set costs. I'm buy it just for this game. Everything else is kudos, these are the kind of experiences I want to see. Any game that can pull off being absolutely beautiful on a level that is fundamental to the game instead of being a backdrop is fantastic in my book.
This looks so AWESOME!!! I cannot wait for this game!! It was like Rez, but absolutely beautiful!!! Amazing! I will definitely buy either Move or Kinetic for this game.
The spiritual successor to Rez presents a first-person, motion-controlled take on the classic music-driven synesthesia shooter by director Tetsuya Mizuguchi.
