Milo Will NOT Be a Kinect Game

Kinect Fan — Wed, 30 Jun 2010 19:27:20 +0000

At E3 2009, Milo was the star, introducing the world to the possibilities that Kinect has to offer. He was a little boy that you could interact with via Kinect, who can tell your voice inflections and facial expressions to see what they meant. At E3 2010, he was no where to be found, which led people to wonder where he was.

Microsoft has announced that Milo will not be a game that is released for Kinect. Instead, he was simply for tech demo purposes, and will not be a full game. Instead, the technology derived from that tech demo will be used in a lot of various Kinect games, such as Kinectimals that is being released from Microsoft at the launch of Kinect.
