Mincraft Yourself with Kinect

If there’s one thing that’s a real pain-in-the-ass to build in Minecraft, it’s…well…it’s pretty much everything considering how lazy we are, but moreoever, it’s a towering, Lord-of-the-Ringesque statue of oneself. Somewhere on the cliff-face just above some massive Minecraftian lake, we simply want a ginormous figure of ourselves watching over our painstakingly hand-carved world.

Is that too much to ask?

Not if you’re asking the Xbox Kinect. Or rather, a very efficient hacker for the Xbox Kinect. Kotaku has the latest details on a hack that enables the data collected by the Kinect to communicate directly with Minecraft, translating any scanned figure into a reasonably similar arrangement of blocks and pieces. Now you truly can build anything in Minecraft. Anything? Oh, dear God, no...

    i cannot wait for DC online to come out. If nothing else than to get kanabo master off the boards for a couple minutes. Jesus, we get it. You act like G4 isn't giving the game any love. They have had like 10 stories on it in the last month. I hope it's good so you stay away a long time.

    Well on classic if your a super op (I am) you can make the game build most popular phototypes by linking it to a file on the internet

    This should be achievable with any camera. Nice.

    On the bright side, things will look more realistic now.

    On the down side, things will look too realistic now, if you know what I mean

    i like the "am". keeps people like you, cpmatthews, on their toes.

    but on topic, this was something that i think we all could have seen coming. thankfully, it'll make the creation process a bit less time consuming.

    So lazy you just couldn't be bothered to change the "am" to "are" after we. I see your edit process! I SEE IT!
