If there's one game that I've been curious about playing this year, it's Steel Battalion Heavy Armor. The combination of controller support and Kinect-based motion control sounds haphazard at worst, and sublime at best depending on how developer From Software handles the mixtue of control schemes. Luckily, Capcom announced that a demo has been released for the mech sim. Available right now on Xbox Live, the demo will teach you the basics of controlling your mech through two full levels. 

A trailer has also been released detailing the tutorial level courtesy of GameTrailers.com. Given that the first action you perform using the Kinect is shaking an eager recruit's hand, I was immediately excited for the dumb potential of the peripheral's inclusion in the game. That said, even in the trailer the Kinect support looks a little dodgy. We'll have to check out the demo ourselves to see if that's the case in the final product.
