Microsoft: Eventually All Our Games Will Use Kinect
18:00 at kinectaku.com
This is just the start
Big publishers are already backing Kinect in a big way: Peter Moore took to the E3 stage to announce that, starting next year, all EA Sports games will support Kinect, and Ubisoft's Tom Clancy's games will all get sensor features too. Where does Microsoft stand on the issue, though? Head of Microsoft Studios Phil Spencer has hinted that one day, all the publisher's games will use Kinect.t's not a mandate that everything we do in first-party has to support Kinect right now. But I will say, specifically with voice, that there are some things that just seem to make navigating and playing games so much easier, that I would guess the answer will be yes in the end, that you'll see all first-party games using some form of Kinect functionality.With the company revealing its biggest title for next year — Halo 4 — at E3, will we see Master Chief come to Kinect at last? Or is Microsoft hinting at the importance of Kinect to its next console? Would you even want all Microsoft games to feature Kinect? Let us know in the comments below.

Even though Microsoft's entire E3 line-up leaking before the company even set foot on stage, this year's presentation was full of big announcements for Kinect owners: Mass Effect 3 and Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Future Soldier both stole the show with their Kinect implementation, but there were plenty of other magic moments too.
SEGA: “Wii U Due in Spring or Summer 2012”

Let the countdown commence!
Nintendo's E3 2011 reveal of Wii U ended with a fairly open-ended "coming to your living room in 2012" which, combined with the company's previous assertion the machine wouldn't see release before April gave us a launch window between May and December. SEGA's Alan Pritchard may have just narrowed that for us.

Hopes for E3 2012: more SEGA games, more Nintendo games, more Kinect games, more Move games, no booth babes. Thanks.

22:45 at kinectaku.com
But it might help
It should be obvious what Let's Cheer! for Kinect will entail, but if you're not sure, here's the official press release from 2K Play that delves into more detail about the upcoming cheerleading game for Kinect.
Sony Steps Back Into the Groove with DanceStar Party

Like SingStar, with a few differences
Last year's SingStar Dance wasn't a bad first effort at a Move-controlled dancing game, but the controller's capable of far more, so it's good news that Sony's London Studio is having a crack at a dedicated dancing title with DanceStar Party.

Two legends collide
You've hopefully watched the trailer for Super Mario on 3DS, but one thing you won't have seen is a level created in honour of The Legend of Zelda's 25th anniversary this year.
