The Kinect is watching you. Star Wars Kinect highlights coming soon, we streamed it yesterday
I'm Han Solo 🎶
I'm a turkey
I'm collector's anxiety
HOLOGRAM GIRL TOP SONG OF 2008!!!
First
I adore 2000s attempts at futuristic gaming and trying to abandon the classic controllers. By god they wanted this to work
Tbf it worked with dance dance revolution
I mean it was for the most part pretty responsive.
The Wii was pretty much the only succesful attempt. That and handheld gaming with the PSP, DS and Switch.
@@leithaziz2716 tbf handheld gaming had been around for a while, as far back as the microvision, 1979. the gameboy was the first to really be popular tho
@@Lazer_Specterno it wasn’t lmao, the kinect was unbearably imprecise
I remember Kinect Sports had an instant replay feature where they'd show what you were doing at a certain point in the race/event, and once as a kid the replay it showed was me accidentally punching the ceiling and then crumpling to the floor holding my hand. Thanks, Microsoft.
kinect sports replays are peak comedy.
F lmao
LMAOOO
My family turned off the feature as soon as they learned that it was uploading every single replay to Microsoft's servers. We ran out of data real fast the first week.
I feel so sorry for kid you, but god is that funny, thank you for the story.
the best part about the kinect is that regardless of it being a commercial failure, it is very often used in robotics and industry as a whole
Yeah they made a really good depth camera, then squandered it on dodgy motion controls.
That's cool
not so long untill they do an operation with kinect like the commercial
yup, we actually made some educational motion games using it at my university, quite useful for that
Thank you Kinect for blessing us with:
I'M SOLO,
I'M HAN SOLO
I'M HAN SOLO, I'M HAN SOLO
SOLO
han solo dies
can’t wait for that video
Oh My GAAAAAAAAAAWD!!!
The funny part is that game was actually the funniest part of Star Wars Kinect
SOME OF THOSE SONGS R SO GOOD THO, ik they're just covers but idk how many times I've listened to Han Solo and Naturally....
Ayo. Fourteenth. I remember this shit. Specifically, that weird semi adventure game where you were on boats and stuff trying to lean around to avoid obstacles
Kinect adventures is the game you're thinking of
That boat game was the peak of entertainment
Kinect adventures its the best sold game on the 360
Same
Kinect adventures was for the kinect the same wii sports was for the wii, my xbox 360 came with it bundled
10:27 the opponent immediately rolling as the Dark Souls music comes on is so fitting
Should have equipped Havel's ring, man is fatrolling
I didn't even know rolling was a thing you could do in the table tennis game.
he immediately recognised RT as the dark souls boss
His instincts kicked in due to the music
I think it's funnier that it plays Soul of Cinder as well. Simple table tennis game? Uses the song that effectively closes out the Dark Souls trilogy.
RT hitting his mic and the Kinect getting it on video had to be the absolute highlight lmao
Honestly those highlights had such a good comedic timing, it just looks intentional
The best part is that it is synced with the music
I loved the photos in Kinect Adventure, I remember one where my father ended up jumping so high as the photo snapped and you just saw a blur of him with his feet in the air.
It was like trying to move a static NPC in Gmod constantly clipping up and down lmao.
No joke, for the last 11 years, me and my sisters have been playing this game and the second one unironically
I am the foremost kinect sports player
That's been me with the GameCube Mario Dance Dance Revolution game, I even packed up that mess and took it to college with me 😂
@@ingtapoot Lmfao
I remember playing this as a kid- it is truly so fun💀
The really wild part is that a Kinect is still a stock system for a lot of machine vision applications in academia, I know a few people who've used them in projects. They're surprisingly acceptable now there's documentation on how to actually use them.
That's awesome
I think some arcade games use the kinect for motion tracking, or at least they used to
Haha not just in academia! Though MS did come out with the Azure Kinect as well a few years back (and I think they're discontinuing it now 😢)
We've got some hooked up in the geology lab with a kinetic (ba-doom tish) sand pit and projector to make 3D topography maps on the fly and model flooding and stuff. It's a surprisingly versatile piece of tech - the profs love them cause their usually pretty cheap for what they can do. I still have a hard time reconciling the cool stuff we use them for in academia with the bug fest of smacking walls and siblings that was my experience as a kid using them for their intended gaming purposes 😅
I use a kinect for VR skeleton tracking. It's one of the best and cheapest devices out there for the job!
Seriously unbelievable how well Chloe did at modifying the music to sound like it was actually in the arenas as the diegetic music rather than simply the video's backing track, bravo!
“Xbox, execute this man” is a new personal favorite RT quip
RT is the only person I know that can break the controller while playing Kinect
I agree
the man's got talent
The post-game highlight camera clips are unreasonably funny to me. Seeing Dan just stand there first frame and be in absolute agony second frame after hitting his hand is prime emote material lmao.
10:26 the dude did a dodge roll as soon as the dark souls music kicked on 😂
Yea that was awesome
Proof that he wasn't the Dark Souls boss: RT was.
I had a kinect as a kid, fucking loved it. I loved kinect sports, the one where you get to have pet tiger cubs, one where you do like white water rafting and minigames, and dance central
Kinectimals! I remember it too! As many faults as the Kinect had, it was a blast for sure
Dance central was also peak
@mayaartsy9919 Yeah, like the technology wasn't great but the games were pretty cool actually
@@annikawinter5771 real, the better games were the ones exclusive to the xbox for sure, since they actually had to try to focus on it
I kinda miss dance central, I wish the series was still around, I actually enjoyed it
The minigames one was Kinect Adventures, I remember 100%ing the game in less than 3 days then being bedridden due to muscle strain
-playing tennis with a man who can change reality at his demand
-dark souls boss music starts playing
-*roll*
RT during movie night: "I really need to record actual human running"
Also RT: 6:49
RT playing Kinect reminds me of the time when the Xbox Kinect was first revealed back in E3 2009 under the title; Project Natal and remember 12 year old me being blown away at what it could do! But was sad that it didn’t turn out anything like that and I’m surprised Microsoft didn’t get sued because of it.
Also, *happy 1000th public video on the channel!*
hi
Why sued? False advertising?
To be fair to the developers, the Kinect that was released had WAY worse hardware than the prototype that was shown off when it was announced.
rtgame is the new mascot of every early 2000's console
more like mid-late 2000s
dark souls music starting and the ai *immediately* rolling can NOT be scripting 10:20
that was too funny
I appreciate how they made the edited-in replacement music still sound diagetic
You know the Kinect was a masterpiece when it was having a harder job reading your movements than the EyeToy, which came out in 2003 and was somehow more functional.
Apparently, some people actually use it in VRChat because the Kinect is surprisingly good at capturing motion. It's basically just a case of the games of the time not implementing it well.
@@LloydTheZephyrianYeah they're amazingly good depth cameras for the price. The software just sucked ass.
@@LloydTheZephyrian they're also regularly used for 3D scanning and 3D modelling because they have amazing depth cameras. SOURCE: my cheap ass used them for years in college.
People are using them for augmented reality pinball tables.
the pokemon low hp music for the boxing was a great touch
honestly the perfect music to use as a replacement
10:23 The Dark Souls soundtrack over low intensity table tennis is a surprisingly good mix.
I was super confused on the 2008 release date because I remember playing "kinect" with my friend in 4th grade (circa 2003-2004) until I looked it up and realized that my brain entirely rewrote the PlayStation EyeToy as a Kinect
5:04 You joke about just throwing the ball, but there was a trend way back of dudes who legit bowled this way. They'd lob it into the air and it would come crashing down close to the pins. Some alleys put specific bans on it because it was screwing up the lanes.
This feels surreal to me bc I literally still play this game every so often. The table tennis was always my favourite. Dance Central is another one I adore - my friends kicked my butt at it just a few weeks ago
12:36 Something very menacing happened in that bathroom
I cant wait for all the kinect post-game clips to be added to the greenscreen catalogue
10:20 The moment the dark souls music started playing the ai went and rolled, it MUST be sentient surely
Expert job on the music replacements!
6:04 My favourite bowling technique
...the nostalgy, I remember that when I was little I used to play this with my sister, while the whole family watched, everyone laughting and happy... Now we barely even talk with each other, I lock myself in my room doing really nothing, eh.... I guess its still nice to remnisce. Thank you Dan for helping me live this life I wish I never had, thank you for always making my day at least a little better.
Hey buddy, sorry to bother you, I just wanted to make sure everything was alright ? Your message hinted at you being in quite a dark place and I think most of us have been there (or are living in right now), so yeah, I just hope it gets better
God, this but with Wii Fit. Everyone cracking up at how silly we all looked playing the chicken flying game or the ski jump, nobody knowing how to do it properly... big sigh.
I hope you're doing alright man. You sound like you're in a bad place; I promise, as hard as it gets at times, it gets better. And the good parts are worth hanging around for.
forgot how good the slideshow at the end of each game always is
Kinect sports was a blast, anyone who didn't get a Wii but a Kinect instead knows the feeling of watching your gramma throw a bowling ball without breaking the tv while doing it.
dan calling the opposition team "the enemy" is so fucking funny lol
Gosh does this bring back memories
I like how the system says that your experience will be better the further away you are from it.
Technically true.
Fun fact: Sonic Free Riders was a Kinect continuation of the Riders series, where the Sonic characters had hoverboards and raced with them. It is notable for having some of the most well-designed courses on the series, some pretty fun items, incredible customization options, and a godawful control system that was made only bearable by the fact the motions required were just tilting your body and jumping
ah man, i really forgot just how nostalgic the music used in the Kinect games are. i only had a PS2 and a modded Xbox original until, like, 2013 when the family got a 360 with a kinect. i was so used to classics and weird shovelware gameboy ROMs that something so new was absolutely mind boggling to me, hearing the music i remember the smell of the resort we were at, how the sun was shining so bright yet it was still chilly, and even the taste of the gum i was chewing practically the whole time we were there. such good times.
did you know you can throw the bowling ball into the crowd? i remember there being an achievement for it as well as breaking the floor, and on the javelin throw, you can throw it so damn hard it goes past every single landmark and impales a screen on the opposite end of the field. man, i actually want to play kinect now. Kinect Adventure was a great one too, i love the one with the balls bouncing off the back wall like a game of Breakout, i played the hell out of fruit ninja kinect (which actually has a VR edition now), and there was a game called Wreckateer that i played a helluva lot. i tweeted that there should be a VR version of it and the devs even liked my post
i'll never forget the time i spent playing Halo 4 on legendary difficulty just so i could get the Praetorian or whatever helmet for my avatar so i could use it in the Kinect games, too. or was it a master chief helmet? or... was one of them for getting a back assassination on the praetorian? it's been so long...
oh, and because the boxing segment reminded me, i remember one time my brother, dad and i were all playing it at his house shortly after the divorce and my younger brother literally pissed himself laughing in the middle of two-player boxing. kinda weird that that, of all things, is so ingrained in my memory
That's an awesome story, for some reason I remember me and my little brothers pissing ourselves from laughing very vividly too.
3:59 RT is like a Logitech controller... gets the job done right up until it doesn't 😂
I love that the Soul of Cinder music combined with the abysmal performance from the AI presents a Dark Souls where Dan is the boss
There only one thing left to complete the kinnect cycle and truly compare to the wii. Seeing rt play just dance in a suit again
9:37 time to add those punches a to a green screen movie 😆
one of my favorite kinect games was where you stood on a platform of some sort that automatically moved forward and you had to dodge these obsticles that get in the way. I think it happened in a giant forest or something of the likes
Kinect adventures I think!
The best use of the Kinect that I played with was in Skyrim. You got to command your followers, re-organize chests by different filters, and actually shout your shouts in game. Honestly pretty cool for 12 year old me in 2014.
THIS
Dance Central was pretty legit tbh. Kinect was actually really good for it, felt like a proper workout.
Now do just dance with the kinect :)
This game was a part of my childhood. I had this instead of a Wii and Wii Sports so this game was my Wii Sports and I remember being pretty damn good at it. Especially the bowling. It honestly worked really well a lot of the time and was sometimes a bit of a workout depending on how long you played with family. The highlights at the end would always make us laugh. So if you have this at home still, maybe break it out for a family gathering 😂
I always thought RT was just the Right Trigger not a whole controller
The audio editing in this is just perfect. Every new song had me in stitches. Spectacular job Cloé!
10:39 editor has good taste
kinect sports was great.
but season 2 was AMAZING i hope he plays that one too, darts, golf, and tennis were amazing, skiing was great too
8:57 can't wait for someone to edit something in front of dan here
Dude this thing was my childhood and the reason my folks are into games haha.
Hi, rt! Just writing this comment to tell you that I absolutely love everything you do on this channel! You brighten up my days. I first saw your video in 2018, but my English wasn't good enough so I couldn't understand the half of what you said, but now I can enjoy your content in all its beauty and chaos. Thanks RT ❤
Oh and I'm also studying to become an English teacher now :)
I like how kinect wasnt even the first to do this. EyeToy for the ps2 was the same thing just years before it.
I remember a trippy futuristic skateboard/snowboard type game for that!
Somehow I had an EyeToy but never once connected the PS2 to internet...
@@Aura-Of-Syrinx I don't think the PS2 had that many online games. It required an adapter iirc.
@@kirby1225 i was specifically thinking of monster hunter :P
@@Aura-Of-Syrinx right.
I’m glad to know that RT’s body, was in fact, ready
Kinect games were my childhood and I was surprised to hear that nobody liked it on the internet. I get it now, after playing countless masterpieces that use regular controllers.
Still, I will never forget those times when we with my elder sister were constantly getting angry while playing tennis against each other
i forgot RTGame existed glad to find you again
KINECT WAS MY CHILDHOOD AND STILL IS I HAVE BOTH KINECT SPORTS AND KINECT ADVENTURE, ITS ONLY PLAYABLE ON XBOX360 BUT I STILL LOVE IT. But no seriously i love these games so much, we would play all the time cause we dont have a backyard, its just trees. I will say it’s always better with friends and if your tall it gets wonky but its still great. Also kinect adventure is the better one.
Kinect sports 2 is such an upgrade i swear, that was my childhood
These games are a core memory for me so being able to watch content like this is truly a treasure! First Kevin's Kinectimals video, and now this?
I still have and regularly play on my Xbox360 and honestly all these years I've spent playing have been the best. As long as you have a good area to play in, all the games are super fun lol
God this take me back, all the rage trying to connect it. who cares that i literally have the kinect in my room rn.
Same
I remember this my dog kept walking into the sensor and messing me up
I remember playing Dance Central and Just Dance games with friends on the Kinect and we always had a blast. It's so janky but I'll always remember the great times that arose for years
I admire Dan’s insistence on playing whatever the hell he wants rather than chasing trends because it leads to gems like this where he digs out old games we vaguely remember as kids and get to relive and make fun of as adults now
8:30 The way the character lines up with RT's camera makes it look like he's wearing shorts.
I remember playing this game all the time it was so much fun. You should definitely make more Kinect videos because this was really funny.
Why is it that every movement dan does makes him look more and more like an alien that only studied humans out of a text book
I still have one of those kinects along with that game in my cupboard from yrs ago. Strange seeing them in a video, lol
the kinect was so revolutionary at the time as a paperweight, really groundbreaking stuff they made there
Funny he grabbed a book for Kinect Ping Pong, I used an old paddle we had laying around
Say what you will about the kinect, it really was the best way to play just dance games. The wii versions? Shake the remote. The switch versions? Shake the remote. But actually having to dance to get points rocked.
I really liked the irony that the kinnect has been the most successful hardware of its time for every field except gaming.
This shit was my childhood
Fun fact, my town used to have some sort of a summer program where kids could sign up for different courses/clubs, usually either for free or at a small fee.
One of the clubs, organised by my IT teacher was a "computer club", where our teacher brought her own Kinect from home and we literally played THIS GAME (and this game only) for 2 weeks straight, everyday
Y’all, my day was pretty shitty, and you would not believe the mood boost I got from seeing a new RTgame video.
RT turns into a human centipede for content
9:38 ora ora ora ora ora ora ora!
He strikes me as the Ari Ari type of guy lol
I remember playing a bunch of kinect games when I was younger. Its nice to see you playing this blast from the plast
I remember playing one of the jumping games with my dad and because you had to jump I still remember when the replay came on at the end and we saw my dad fail to jump and fall flat on his face in stop motion
10:26 YOOO NEW DARK SOULS GAMEPLAY
The local hospital's MRI scanner uses a Kinect mounted to the ceiling as the patient orientation sensor. I haven't asked them what exactly it's used for, but it generates a wireframe body model on the MRI scanner's screen.
The Kinect was awesome! It is so nostalgic but it was so cool interacting and using motion controls to play games! This brought back memories
"how many people who owned this game played it a second time" i have sunk hours into this. i have beat every single champion. i hold every world record in Kinect sports 1 AND 2. i am unstoppable.
I have such fond memories playing on the Kinect. Disneyland Adventures was my favorite game to play
I played this ad the 2nd version multiple time actually lol. genuinely loved plaything these as a kid.
“No, honey, we have Miis at home.”
Miis at home:
I legitimately loved playing Kinect games when I was younger. My favourites were Kinectimals, Kinect Adventures, and Sonic Free Riders.
Holy sheet. I had this and played this so much when i was younger. That intro music almost got me in tears
Man this brings back memories. Volleyball and table tennis were my absolute favorite. My siblings and i would always play the multiplayer mode and the post-game highlights were the most awaited part for us
One of my friends back in the late 2000s/early 2010s had a Kinect and I distinctly remembering using it to play Just Dance. The controls were more accurate than with the Wii (where only the one arm seemed to matter) but I was too young to really judge its quality outside of that
Brings back memories though 🙂
6:04 the funniest part of the video for me. Remembering this always made me giggle for no reason.
10:25 The CPU suddenly rolling out of nowhere as the DS3 soundtrack plays was beautiful to see.
Ok but this game is legit so much fun if you have people over, we've spent many hours on Kinect Sports 1 & 2 with family and friends.
I like that almost immediately after the Dark Souls music started playing, the opponent did a dodge roll. Damn that muscle memory is deeply ingrained.
dan didn't even experience just how egregious the music is, they literally play copyright struck music at EVERY successful turn in bowling, volleyball, track and field, and ping pong, which continues into the second game as well. these random clips of pop music and heavy breathing defined my childhood
