All is not lost though. Capcom has today revealed one of the most epic collector's compilation in recent video game history.

In a (hopefully) entertaining mash up of action and martial arts education, players will assume the role Danny Cheng, a martial artist who one day dreams of becoming the next Steven Seagal.(br /)(br /)The trailer looks entertaining enough, though I remain verrry skeptical when it comes to an ambitious project like this. I always hope the game will end up as awesome as it was presented but I've been let down so many other times that I can't help but be nervous. To be fair, I've yet to play with a Kinect in any capacity, so I can't really say if this seems beyond the capacity of the technology or not. We'll try to keep you posted on new developments. In the mean time, enjoy the trailer!
