Ubisoft announced during Microsoft's press conference that all future titles in its Tom Clancy franchises will "leverage" Kinect on Xbox 360. This was demonstrated live on stage with the 'Gunsmith' weapon customisation feature of Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Future Soldier.

Weapon customisation in Future Soldier can be controlled entirely through Kinect voice recognition or gestures, including a very swish and fancy gesture that sees the gun dissemble into its component parts by simply pulling your hands apart.

You'll also be able to tell your gun to "optimise for close combat" or "randomise" to have it switch to the correct configuration.

Kinect gameplay controls were also demonstrated on a Gunsmith testing shooting range, including aiming, reloading and zooming.

      Gunsmith was a good idea but I wasn't convinced by how accuate the aiming was when they tested the guns, to be expected but it doesn't look like they've cracked the formula for kinect supported FPS's.

        the actual gunsmith part of it looked pretty slick. when he went to the range to test his guns did not.
