Star Wars Kinect is a Flawless Masterpiece 

Power off

Box X! BOX X!

XBOX

PlayStation.

Yes I remember when I would have to practically scream at my Kinect to get it to work 😂 I SWEAR it was deaf “XBOX! X… BOX! EEEEEEEEEEXXXXBOOOOOOOOOOOXXX!!!… KINECT! WHY WON’T YOU LISTEN TO ME DAMNIT!!!!” Omg the memories 🤣 thanks Dan for digging up the nostalgia thats usually buried deep within my brain!!

> Wearing black clothing in front of a black background

And beige pants to match the wall even better

I mean Kinect Developers probably only accounted for suburban middle class homes lol, our house was the same, we didn’t have much room for ours so it barely worked

> wearing hard to squat down pants to actually go low and jump

i love how it thinks the microphone is his arm or leg sometimes

I swear nobody who calls the thing crap even researches how it actually works and that they may be causing it to have more problems. Like it's very limited and devs definitely didn't understand how to best use the tech outside of maybe the two launch games, but it's better then people give it credit, people use it for vr programs and it works well enough from what I've heard.

Yeah i'm lead developer on an interactive wall system, basically a big 4 meter by 3 meter interactive projection, kids can throw balls and hit targets while playing educational content. I build the prototype with the Kinect V2 (the Xbox one version), its really good. The Kinect V2 was a big boon for interactive systems in healthcare, education, etc. The Xbox shipping with Kinect V2 may have gotten you a shitty periphery but it enabled a host products that gave joy to the elderly and those with mental disabilities. The only people doing anything like the kinectV2 and at their price point is Orbbec, random Chinese company, good lads. It has kept us and similar companies going.

@@valen9835 Yeah, a Kinect is actually the cheapest way to get full body tracking in VR right now.

@@maddizzle1744 Really? I still have one at home, now I only need a VR headset...

Exactly, was annoyed from the beginning.

Execute order yoinky sploinky

Given how aggressive they’ve been in demonetizing his videos, there’s some real honest truth to that

How are you everywhere

@LadybugSheep Then it'd be a double negative.. Whenever I see comments like this, I always need to ask myself whether they've passed basic English. If they haven't, they shouldn't be correcting other people's grammar. If they have, then they wouldn't make mistakes like this.

@@LadybugSheep stop trying to correct a perfectly fine sentence with a answer that is still grammatically wrong

Ikr! It was driving me nuts!

The mic doesn’t help either

I was thinking this moments into the video

The Kinect doesn't see color. It uses an IR grid camera to determine distance to objects.

@@KingofJ95 it definitely saw colour when I used to play with it. The colour of my clothes, the lighting and the background 100% affected how well it worked. Black clothes made it work terribly and paler clothes helped it chug along. Better lighting also helped. From what i saw just looking through kinect options it tracked my legs, body, arms, and head and it seemed to do all of that by what everything looked like. I know nothing about the technical side but i spent tens, if not hundreds of hours playing with that thing, so I feel like i might know a bit.

Yeah, looks like he is barely bending his legs when he is jumping except a few times here and there.

You gotta understand, guys. Dan is 28. He's lucky he can even still jump.

Someone get this man a cane

​@@xxhobocatxx286928 is the new 40 😭

@@sefy5082just make him a cane that looks like a lightsaber then maybe he’d use it

Replying to this comment to give it a signal boost.

In a way it has similar issues that VR and pretty much any devise relying on human motion to control the game. Videogames inherently are a way to interact with virtual worlds in a limited way. That's why controllers and keyboard are nice. You have only so many buttons to press and game designers get to relax with not having to account for inifnite many ways to control your character. Then you have this. Essentially infinite many ways to control the game but the game is programmed to do only so many things and if you don't do things close to perfect, or like Dan did, unintentionally sabotage the camera, it just doesn't work.

And that's the problem, how is the average Joe supposed to know all that?

​​​@@CuestrupasterI mean I do agree it's reasonable to not realise the issue immediately and to blame the technology but if you take your surroundings into consideration it's also pretty obvious dressing like your wall is not a smart way to play with a motion capturing device

​@@Cuestrupaster I'd figure it'd be part of some manual for using the Kinect just as a safety measure.

There's a special lens attachment he could have bought that reduces the distance needed, I used to have one.

From what I've heard, the depth sensing means that the wall cosplay wouldn't be much of an issue if he were able to play at the optimal distance. Well, unless it also uses some RGB inference.

@@MrSonny6155 I don't know how it works but I remember as a kid you could go into a mode that would show you the skeleton it draws to track you. I had the original version

I need to get a copy of the movie to edit that in now

Allow me to erm akshually🤓 here, the lyrics say he’s free from the carbon and thus it would be foolish to reference him at the end given that he was already out of the carbon you fool

The cover story was a tragic accident involving ketamine and a Honda Civic

as hes the drift king he could have easily not let that traffic 'accident' happen, it has to have been planned

Yoda was actively laughing at you. He gained enjoyment from watching you suffer. He ain't retiring any time soon

I laughed so hard after he said that

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought of that

well done you got the joke

@@zts3902 I don't think RT meant to make this joke

"Well, I thought it was obvious."

Same. Playing this game with my best friend is one of my favourite childhood memories

It was magic. So much nostalgia

sonic the hedgehog(2006)

Rancor Rampage getting all of the different versions was the best!!

I have a theory that kinect games had long loading screens on purpose so that people would sit down plenty while playing and not like pass out from exertion

That part was so good 👏

Very clever 😁

not to mention standing way to close to the camera

@@karlmarx9255 or the khaki pants in front of an eggshell wall

​@@GTAmaniac1 in a low-light environment to boot!

In college they called Dan the Drift King, not the Genius King

@@karlmarx9255 Way too close? Considering he was hitting his ass against the door handle, how was he supposed to stand further away?

I’m Solo, I’m Han Solo, I’m Han Solo, I’m Han Solo, Solo

you're han solo.

Yeah, I'm feelin' good tonight Finally feelin' free and it feels so right, oh

Yep. They seem to forget that Kinect was notorious for not recognizing movement and being just bad to use. The dancing game used as basis here is pretty much the only thing I ever heard players actually praise. Also a lot of people talk about colours when I'm pretty sure that's not what Kinect uses for seeing motion, meaning they would have set it up "incorrectly" too.

​@@NukkuiskoHyvinVaiPoisblack is basically the only color that you should NOT wear since it absorbs all light instead of reflecting it back to the IR sensor

_I'M LOVIN CLOUD CITY, MY HEAD'S IN THE SKY_

_I'M SOLO, I'M HAN SOLO_

That old frog refused to die purely so he could keep chucking rocks at teenagers and laugh when they get bowled over. King

It was great!? Why you crying lol 😂 it’s the best thing in the game IMO XD

Qui-Gon Derulo could never~ 😭

daRTh drift king

Omg I spent hours playing this game as a kid. I had so much fun throwing bolts, and if I remember it was the first game I ever completed

and then jumping again and almost throwing up

Kinect animals.

Yes please

Hopefully PowerUp Heroes, that was my childhood!

Kinectimals

Oh please 😂

EHCKS BAHKS

and then it stopped recognizing his voice again anyways.

No matter what critics say, that alone probably makes this game a success

He is Han Solo, Solo.

I remember being too scared to play the one mini game with the rancor lmao

Why do i have the same memory, but it was with my brother This is a small world
