I'll be damned, it really is better with Kinect?

There are few things worse than listening to a Kinect user. The reverberations it gives off and the background noise it picks up are extremely annoying.

Love hearing someone shoot off a gun then having to hear it again a second later.

Then your single. I dare one of you to say that you significant other is ok with you putting a headset on so they dont have to hear your shooting in the game, only to have you screaming at the TV-ACCEPT INVITE!!!.... uhhh, ACCEPT! dammit, ACCEPT THE DAMN INVITE!!!!-
(your spouse) SHUT THE **** UP YOU MORON AND JUST CHOOSE THE OPTION WITH THE CONTROLLER , DUMMY!
End of kinect argument. lol

PS3 Owner here. 2nd time I have been seriously jealous.

You still use the controller for everything but the voice commands

Here I am thinking how cool it would be to jump & roll around in my living room.

Just sittin' here yelling at the xbox now.

I grabbed the kinect and just hooked it up. I can do basic functions on the dashboard, but saying "Xbox Loadout 3" and just "loadout 3" does nothing. Am I missing something here? Thanks!

In-game you specify the Kinect command by saying "EGO" first, not "Xbox". I believe you also need the chat channel set to EGO as well as another said. This is why a physical manual would have benefitted this game as the in-game manual is pretty clunky to navigate and seems to be missing some vital information (or it is buried).

Spoken like someone who has never used a Kinect in their life and hating on it because they think it is the cool thing to do. There is absolutely no reason to shout for it to recognize commands unless you never calibrated the system to your room. Mine recognizes voice commands in a normal to low voice from across the room with volume up on the game.

And FYI, I am not single and my live-in girlfriend has no issues with my gaming, Kinect or otherwise. Heck, she is even the one who bought me my first Xbox during the launch those many years ago. Kinect commands are of no different volume than my standard chat with people. Maybe you should actually educate yourself on the functionality of the Kinect before you spout nonsense that makes you look like a fool.

If you go to the Intel menu, there is a Kinect tab listing every possible command in the game, seems to be more than are listed in the OP and also where to say em. Got rid of my Kinect a few months ago but after seeing it work so well with Mass Effect 3 im gutted I dont have it for this

Nope, and it's the wife's Kinect that wasn't as much fun as driving to see her friends for exercise class.

I get where you're coming from: a friend of mine was yelling "Grenade!!!!" at ME3 during party chat. We kicked him, and it has never been an issue again. That said, EGO channel all the way.

The lack of a manual and the convoluted menus are bonus gameplay!
