Psychedelic audiovisual experience Child of Eden will be available on Xbox 360 on June 14, a launch date for the PS3 will be made later. Ubisoft representatives at PAX East confirmed the date today at the show, currently taking place in Boston.
There's still plenty of time to discover the pleasure centers you want to attach those four vibration devices to.

Kind of surprised that this is a full retail game, wonder what the price point will be.

I would pay three times that.
In fact, I think I may if the Kinect functionality is worth it.

This. I could imagine pointer controls (worked great in Sin and Punishment 2), but they wouldn't be my preference. Especially in a music-based shooter, I find the more consistent cursor speed you get from a joystick to be more entrancing than the precise-but-variable speed of a pointer.
That said, after five years of Wii-bashing on these boards, I apparently missed the memo where suddenly we're supposed to hope everything gets motion controls.

if it works better than kinect and standard controller... i might pick up a move for this game... but based on some interviews and playtests with the kinect version it seems like its not very responsive...

go to the 57min point to see the impressions on the responsiveness.

Destructoid gave a similar impression a while back...
I will certainly pick up the Move version if it is supported. I still have my REZ PS2 copy, but this would be sweet with accurate motion controls.

Very interested to check this out. It's hard to imagine a full retail game that provides value that isn't utterly exhausting to play via Kinect.
It's fascinating just to see how that works.
I'm sure the other versions will be good, I'm just interested in seeing a full "real" game using Kinect.

I don't like these Rez type games. Maybe because I don't like techno.
They should make a game like this but with Metal. It should have pentagrams and demon heads floating around. Your should be able to play as Eddie from the Iron Maiden covers. It wouldn't do as well with game critics because they are techno guys. I think we need more Metal Heads representing in the game critic community.

So, since I play video games, I'm automatically into techno music? Huh, you learn something new every day. Thank you kind sir.

I am a huge metal head.
Rez is one of my favourite games of all time.
I must be some sort of anomaly...

Cool. I've been looking at this game for a while. I'm happy it's finally dated.

HELL YEAH! REZ WAS THE BUSINESS. DON'T MIND REZ HD. AT ALL.

I'm glad it's dated so I know when to stock up on mariju... ummm, I mean stock up on something else like brownie mix.

Bought day 1. Really hope it has move support though, this game just screams for it.

@kcswanko The is no need to compare Q? to the crap on the Wii. This will not be like Wii games in that it will posess quality.
I would not soil my experience by playing this with Move. Move support would be a tacked on port. No thanks I will play it as designed.
