ive played with it a few times... i was not impressed... i can see how some may like it, but i feel much like all motion control gaming, the charm can wear off fast.


i own all three major systems... the wii motion part wasnt the selling point for me... it was the classic nintendo titles... zelda, mario, mario kart, etc....

The sales numbers are the impressive part. I didn't realize it was doing that well. 10 million units and 10 million games have been sold since its release.

Doesn't a game come with it though? I'm sure they count those in sales.

i can't see how you weren't impressed with it.


i mean compared to wii and Move....

you don't have to have a fricking magic wand slash glowing dildo in your hands to play.

the games aren't amazing yet, but entertaining for a group of people.

you can control the xbox with voice and motion control, not just the games.


of the three....the kinect is above and beyond better than the others. give them time, they've got at least 3+ years before Mcrosoft puts out another system. Quality games will come soon enough.

The games Xbox are making sucks but you should see what some hackers have done with the technology and hooking the Kinect up to computers. It is pretty impressive technology and I feel Microsoft and other developers have only scratched the surface to what it will be able to do.
