| [Original Story]
The first images of what purports to be an early build of a Kinect-only Gears of War RTS have emerged.
According to the accompanying report, players control a squad of four by tracing a line across the screen with their hand. The screens also show familiar characters from the Gears of War series, including Baird.
Apparently, the images come from an early video presentation of alpha footage, hence the crappy quality. Epic and Microsoft have yet to respond.
Interesting spin-off or shameless cash-in? Time will tell. Halo Wars was pretty good, mind.
[Update]
It's possible that the game, called Gears of War: Tactics according to the report, is in fact the canned Gears of War: Exile.
Back in 2010 it was rumoured that Epic Games was working on a Kinect-only Gears game, claims that were given a little more legitimacy when the studio trademarked Gears of War: Exile.
However, in April last year Cliff Bleszinski said that Exile had been cancelled. "Gears of War: Exile was an unannounced game that I can't give any details about that has since been cancelled," he told reporters.
Now all that remains to be seen is whether Tactics and Exile are the same thing, or whether what we can see in the images below are what the canned project evolved into.
