Just wondering on peoples thoughts about using it as a control device for certain things in the game. I'd still use my joystick, but I thought it might be nifty if I tilted my head or something then it'd display the side window view or something. Maybe a way to look around the cockpit.

TrackIR , I think, was confirmed in the PCGamer review.


Wether or not it actually is hasn't been officially announced.



I do not think I am allowed to link offsite websites, however, if you Google TrackIR you will see their official website. It's incredibly useful for flight sims and games like ARMA2


Cheers.

Yeah... I know... That's why I posted this. I was just wondering peoples thoughts on it... what they would use it for... Is anyone crazy enough to completely control their mech using the only the kinect. That sort of thing. But thanks for the info for the people that don't know.

Moving to HARDWARE at the request of the OP since this was a general discussion of what users would like to be able to use.

Just wanted to know what people plan on using it for. Is anyone going to do something crazy with it? Is there something specific or a multitude of things.

@Helmer - Thanks for trying to help, but all of those links are about wanting support for it. I know it's supported, just want to know what's on peoples minds for how to implement it.
