all the workouts on XBL are free for gold members till the end of 2014... pretty sweet considering they have p90x, insanity and a bevy of other beachbody workouts... also the kinect tracking looks pretty damn good to me...

Not near as big as I expected. I couldn't tell how deep it was b/c of it going behind the display case, but the height and width looked pretty similar to the original 360.

it looks like a demo unit that isnt working...honestly i am not even sure that is a full unit to be honest. just a half the system there for display. So ghey.

The Xbox doesn't stop where it looks like it does in the pic, it just goes behind the display. You can't tell from from the pic, but you can in person. There are places for controllers as well just like the other demo stations, just not fully set up yet.

yeah i saw that myself but it just looked weird to me. I heard gamestop in rockerfeller center has a PS4 working to play. I might stop in tomorrow...but I might be afraid to touch those slimy controllers.

With the success of such products as the WiiFit, this is a monster plus for MS and a great use of the Kinect. Well over $1000 in workouts already in line and custom content specifically for Xbox Fitness. Kinect will monitor things like heart rate, calories burned, and even which muscles are being used for certain exercises. This will also fuel a lot of competition between friends and people of the same age when it comes to challenges and tracking.

If MS markets this right(lol), it will put an XB1 into a shit load of homes.

Reading into the comments, one of the posts has some great ideas in it that MS could use too. MS can make a shit load of money on branded weights that kinect can recognize and similar accessories that can, for example, track how much weight is being lifted. Could also create a progress report that shows a picture of your body before you started working out with Xbox Fitness and then show you the progression after certain amounts of time. A lot of people stop working out because they don't realize they are getting results. Hard to see change when you see yourself everyday, but if you have periodic updates to where you were to where you are now, it will keep people motivated and show them they really are changing.

Food barcodes can be scanned to keep a diet intake and give you accurate information on all the nutrients going into your system and make suggestions based on your personal plan. There are a ton of 3rd party deals to be made using this software. Possibilities are endless here.

I think I may have been sold on the Bone.

Anyone else notice the little jab at itself in the beginning where he had the Kinect covered lol.

When they sell the xbone without a Kinect will be the day I think about purchasing one I think.

It will never happen.

I think the whole purpose of the Kinect is that total interactivity. The more I see of how it works, the more impressed I am.

FYI Giant Bombs Bombcast this week was special!

anyway...Quick Look Xboner

[Primetime]

Watching that preview now. Pretty cool that the controller has no accelerometer or anything like that but acts like it does because the kinect can pick up on the movement. So for example, in DR3, when a zombie grabs a hold of you, you simply shake the controller to shake free from the zombie. Another cool little feature picked up from the infrared camera within kinect.

Dope. My wife would love the hell out of that, she's a fitness/health junkie. In other means she wouldn't complain if I spent more money on another console.
