Blackwater for Kinect Ad is Moderately Ridiculous

Have you heard of Blackwater?  Well, it’s the Kinect’s first attempt at bringing the first person shooter genre to the device.  Judging from the advertisement, the Kinect’s tracking capabilities have increased tremendously over the past year.

As can only be assumed from the advertisment below, the Kinect will now have you using your furniture for cover, squeezing air triggers to shoot, and just generally making an ass out of yourself to accomplish your “mission objectives”.

If it did indeed play out like this, and you do half the things that are shown in this trailer, then this game stands to be one of the coolest in memory.  The cynic in me tends to think that’s going to feel more like Time Crysis than anything.

We’ll see.  Blackwater is schedule to release on October 25th.  Have a look at all the pew pewing below.
