Don't worry, it isn't gone. My personal life has taken center stage a little bit since partway through E3 and now. There won't be one today, but expect PB & Jason to return next week. I thought I'd give everyone a heads up that I'm aware I've been absent, I suppose.
There should be a lot of fun stuff to cover. Anyone want me to talk about anything specific next week?
Something awesome.
I'm not really into podcasts, but I really appreciate that you guys do them and all the effort you put into them. if I did listen though, I would be curious to hear about Project X Zone, because I don't have a copy and have to live vicariously through others who have it.
Hmm...I read in a recent article that Sony decided to drop the $70 camera eye at the very last minute giving them a price advantage over the XBONE, which we all know by now. However, what implications will this have for that missing hardware option? You are basically paying extra for the XBONE because of the built in camera, so since their camera will have a larger install base, will XBONE games benefit from it, or will the rallying cry from gamers force them to ignore the KINECT 2.0 altogether and keep games KINECT free? We've aready seen a couple of XBONE KINECT 2.0 games drop KINECT controls, the Roman themed RYSE for example.
PS4 was said to have interesting features when syncing the new controllers to the PS4 eye cam. Like swapping split screens during gameplay, as a rumored feature for example. Also in a game like Drive Club, you were rumored to have been able to track your head movements to check the sides of your car for example. Kind of cool! Will these camera technologies mean much to the the next gen in gaming? What implications will this have towards camera tech in the future? Will Sony suffer software innovations due to lack of camera support?
^This was going to be my suggestion as well.
Was wondering where PB & Jason got off to. Thanks for the heads up. I definitely sensed a disturbance in the swartz!
That's cool. I need to catch up and give it a try.
