Ubisoft's announced that ALL future Tom Clany titles will support Kinect.
The publisher made the announcement at Microsoft's E3 press conference, where it showed off Ghost Recon: Future Soldier with Kinect.
Players can gesture to move and swap out parts, or even use their voice to do the same job.
"Thanks to voice recognition Kinect allows for quick weapon customization based on mission conditions and objectives," it said on stage.
It looks a bit clever. More soon.

I've read it. I'm liking it. I'm liking it a lot. Microsoft, now you're talking and I'm listening. New game play ideas and nothing about a super duper xbox replacement. Now you're speaking my language.

Is such superficial functionality really a big deal though? It was expected that Kinect would be used to augment hardcore games in these sort of ways, but it's all optional fluff really. Not going to miss it if it's not there.

Best thing at presentation by a mile.
I loved how they used Kinect for this, it was fantastic and looked completely intuitive. Im also happy that the new rainbow six game will have this as well and im glad that 2012 will be the year of SQUAD based shooters, for too long mindless crap like COD has dumbed down the games playing public.
The rest of the presentation for Microsoft however was beyond weak, same old rope different number next to the name.
When that disney thing came on we nearly wet ourselves with laughter in this house and star wars was so bad i almost cried.

The shooting wasn't too great (although it was clever), but that gun assembly demo was awesome.

i have to admit i was never that bothered about kinect and preferred move, this however, has interested me alot, i liked how in the rainbow six games you could use voice commands, although it wasnt that great at realising what you say, being able to use gestures too would be alot better

It is for me because this is exactly what I wanted from Kinect. I don't care for dance games and the like but using Kinect to supplement my controller in an intuitive way leaves me on the cusp of buying one.
