Madden NFL 13 Demo Kinect Impressions

[Steve_OS]

Only Kinect impressions here. I'm interested to see how people like it.

Gimmicky. Plus on the demo the playclock is at 10 seconds before the team even gets to the line, so it doesn't give enough time to bark out anything before the clock runs out.

I actually think it could be very useful compared to finding audibles, adjustments at the line of scrimmage with the controller but in it's current state it is not reliable...probably picks up half of what I say...

It was working well during the first two games I played but now it's getting iffy for me.

Only certain phrases seem to be working. I think it's due to the crowd noise.

I like using it but right now it's acting a little bit strange. Hope that it will work better in the actual game (and/or maybe have some settings to adjust it).

You can go into settings and turn playclock off. This allows you to experiment all day if you want.

Yea it sucks right now barley picks up calls. Have to scream in mic hopefully it's resolved before release date

It works pretty well for me. I like the addition.

Works well for me and I don't have to scream either and I'm sitting 15 feet away from it with the AC on full blast. I think some of you might want to re-calibrate your Kinect microphone.

And far as getting to the line with only 10 seconds on the play clock, you just moving through the play calling screen too slow. I get up to the line with 22 seconds to spare, have plenty of time to say adjustments.

Only thing I wish was that it allowed you to cycle through the play book and call plays via Kinect as well. Other then that, I love the addition.

That's interesting since I re-calibrated mines and it's still acting iffy.

I have a fan but it doesn't really make any noise. I have 5.1 which is pretty loud when there's crowd noise so I'm thinking that my problems are due to that. My kinect is close to my left and right speaker (the kinect is on top of my TV).

Some commands work 100% of the time and others don't...makes me wonder if I am just not saying the commands in the right order or I just need to learn the commands better...

For example as the 49ers I can say "Davis" "Streak" and Vernon will run a streak but if I say "Post" or "Hook in" nothing happens...can you only call a few hot routes?
