At this year’s Ani-Con the guys from Xbox HK showed off their new Kinect system at their booth. Ani-Con visitors could try out demos of either Dance Central and Kinect Sports. The dance game only had five playable tracks while the sports game only let gamers try the Hurdles track event.
At a special press conference held the day before the beginning of the Ani-Con Xbox invited celebrity idol models Chrissie Chau and Jessica C to help demonstrate how to “Kinect” with the new Xbox 360 add-on.
The Kinect works as advertised and watching Chrissie and Jessica C dance to Lady Gaga’s Poker Face was quite a spectacle.
The Kinect is a controller free gaming add-on for the Xbox 360 and allows players to interact with games just by moving your body and talking. At the Con there was some initial problems with the game frequently pausing on its but the Xbox guys said that this was caused by the frequent bright flashes from the photographers cameras.
