Now THIS does look awesome. I never got to play the first Steel Battalion as the add-on controller cost so much money but the potential for this game is actually really good if you spend a minute to think about it. This is the sort of software I would like to see with Kinnect, We can thank Capcom for that. At least they are trying to make some software that appeal to core gamers. Check out some of the screenshots and footage from the article.

If you look at this screenshot you can see part of the cockpit, which I assume will be fully operational by kinect.
I wonder if Kinect is precise enough to allow you to do this. Oh and yeah I recall the controller, I wanted one
Exactly! Whenever someone slags of Kinect for it's line-up of games I try and point out that this is just the beginning and once the developers get to grips with it we should see better and more appealing games.
Just look at Move, it's launch line-up is poor in my view but over the next 6 months they have some real gems coming out for it.
Just worried that Steel Battalion may only end up using Kinect to track where your looking and move the character's head in the cockpit.
This video has the developers explaining how some of the gameplay feature work:

Also, it's being developed by From Software and it's always exciting to have them at the helm. It's good news that the game is using the controller and kinect together. Hopefully more games will start to use this combination, I think that is where Kinect's future lies tbh.
but every sentence has an F word or an S word in it.
18+ only !!!!
a superb game.
I had trouble hitting the heat button though
I'm not convinced by Kinect as a motion device but this game gets a lot of things right, voice command would of been useful in some instances though imo but I guess they left that out due to the problems it would introduce during online multiplayer.
