Microsoft has put forth an official Software-Development-Kit (SDK)for would-be PC/Kinect hackers and software makers. This is no doubt a move to encourage game development for Windows, which makes sense since the next version of Windows, Windows 8, is said to come with XBOX Live included (watch for the anti-trust lawsuit ala the Internet Explorer litigation).
What kind of games or software do you think people will make with an officially supported SDK for Kinect? Security-ware? Perv-ware? Or just games?

More than Angry Birds in your Browser, Google may be looking to compete in the interactive entertainment medium that we all know and love. Industry Gamers reports that an open job position listed on Google’s website is a tip-off to things perhaps to come (not unlike how we knew Blizzard is flirting with brining Diablo III to console).

| I’m the gamer your mother warned you about:
I was introduced to video games on the Atari 2600, and quickly moved to a Nintendo, where The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, and Dragon Warrior dominated my early non-Mario years. Now days, I do mostly PC gaming, and some console gaming. I’ve been in and out of rehab, and there’s no saving a nerd like me. NerdLife4Ever. ikecube has written 92 posts on Delta Attack. |
