The kinect stuff looks like crap... I hope that is not the future of gaming.

Hopefully this is playable with only the pad, "Enahnced with the Kinect", not a kinect only game....It'll feel a little to Robot Jox-ish if otherwise.

Looks interesting but like others say I hope the kinect enhanced experience doesn't overwhelm the game:
"That hit was a close one, reach down toward your pants and make sure you didn't crap yourself"

Also it looked like framerate problems in some of the video shots, will wait to see reviews.

Looks interesting. I might want it if it doesn't require Kinect.

If Kinect or mobile gaming becomes the future of gaming, I will find another hobby. Seriously.

I'd definitely try this game, but I don't have a Kinect.

Kinect is supposed to just add to the experience, but they said at the original announcement that it wouldn't be required.
I always regretted missing out on the original games, those were the most sim of all the mech games---pc included.

New, very short, preview about Kinect with it:

I just hope MP is like Chromehounds and not more mindless TDM/CTF/Conquest.

Yikes, the box cover says "Kinect required".

"The graphics on the TV may be hard to see, but I wanted people to be able to observe what the players do to control the game. They mostly use the Xbox controller. From time to time, they use Kinect-tracked gestures to literally reach beyond those controls."
