Ultimate Kinect hack: Playing Killzone 3 on PS3

Hacker gets Microsoft's motion controller working with PS3

Just checkit out before you scream 'OMG TEH FAKEZORZ" in the comments. Some bloke has actually got Kinect working with PS3. Working badly, mind, but it's a start.

As spotted via Kotaku, this is the work of hacker Shantanu Goel, who manages to navigate the PS3 XMB menu system, execute a game - Killzone 3 - and play it all using hand gestures picked up by a Kinect sensor.


This is relayed to PS3 using magic, wizardry and a little PC program that's apparently in pre-alpha state.

Well, he doesn't so much as play Killzone, rather he makes it move in a completely unplayable way and it doesn't seem to work very well. Baby steps though, people.

Don't believe your eyes? The code, instructions and everything else can be downloaded here, so you can try controlling your PS3 with great difficulty for yourself. Because convenience and functionality is so last century.

It only does Kinect.

Damn, I was just about to post this. I find it funny and will never ever use it...

hackers man...smh

What do you expect, The Kinect is superior to the EyeToy in every way? You have to manually adjust the Eyetoy just to use Move. My $20 PC cam self adjusts ..

So is Sony going to sue this guy too?ShuichiChamp24

Noooooooooooooooooooo

nightmares came true :(

I hope everyone knows that MS released their Kinect dev kits for free to encourage creativity.

Everyone understands this, right?

When it comes to seeing officially sanctioned Kinect games showing up on the PS3, don't expect that to happen any time soon. Neither Sony nor MS will let that happen.

Ill take it one further..One can say..what would stop MS from leaving a few doors open so it could be "hacked" and used on the PS3?....

Kinect is **** why should I care?

somehow someway, sony will find a way to sue this guy

Well Kinect finally has a hardcore game to bad it's on the PS3 :Pkuraimen

possible new sig?.....hmmm

The irony here is amazing.

You just know that Sony is smiling at this. But, they can't endorse it because that would contradict the stance that they have taken on hacking the PS3.

Meanwhile, MS has to be furious, but they have to OK it because of the stance that THEY have taken on hacking the Kinect.

Brilliant.

Sony wins the console wars. Confirmed.sethman410

Not so fast... Sony has to condemn doing this, and has to add features to their firmware to prevent this, as per their stance on hacking.

Floppage denied - KZ3 now a 9.5 !! :twisted:

There is a word for guys like him. Nerd. Its completely useless. Without the games its an awful peripheral.

itza lie..teh cell is two powerful for da kinect...itza gona burn it out.

NOOOO i don't want kinect to ruin PS3 like it did Xbox :(

PS3 doesn't need Kinnect to ruin it. It already is ruined. Killzone doesn't belong in a sentence with hardcore in it...

Jealous much that PS3 has more exclusive shooters than "The shooter console" Xbox?

Lol anyways shooters suck im glad that PS3 other kinds of games too unlike Xbox

Killzone 3 = PS move + Kinect. Best of both worlds

If anything MS is smiling..It's not a hack that's going to compromisethe hardware like the PS3 or pirated software sales where the parnet company is going to loose capital.

If someone has an interest in this they are still going to have to buy the hardware...That's a benefit to MS...

Kinect is actually pretty cool now that its on the PS3 imho

Lawsuit!!! :lol:
