[360] Kinect....Yay..or Nay ?

[Maynard]

i have zero interest in it. in fact, my interest is so low that i didnt post anything in this thread

No chance that ever comes out. Journalists at E3 all said it was only shown behind closed doors and it was all smoke and mirrors bullshit.

Not to mention it's fucking Molyneux. Hes' the king of "promising" shit that never comes to fruition. Hell, there was supposed to be Kinect support in Fable 3. LOL.

I do think MS did say the Milo thing was officially canned but not sure.

I thought "Milo" was just supposed to be a tech demo anyway.

anyone get it? don't be scared!

 

[bluntside]

Not the least bit interested.

A friend of mine is excited about it because he has three kids and they'll play the shit out of it. So I'm sure I'll end up giving it a flail or two, but I can't think of a single game (release or future release) that would make me consider buying this.

My one buddy with 2 kids is getting tonight. At least I'll get first hand testing of the thing I've bashed for the last year lol.

My living room simply isn't a good setup for the Kinect.
My couch is too close to the TV.

Hey mommy, you sexy! Can I get that number?

Hahahahahaha.

I was considering Kinect. Mainly cause I never touch my 360 anymore and this would give me a reason to. Pretty sad reason to get it. I do like the idea of controlling everything like, movies and ESPN via motion and voice. However, the exclusion of Netflix really puts a damper on that.

Also looking at PS Move. I think I'm leaning toward the Move. I can't figure out how Kinect is going to have games that appeal to me without a controller of some sort. How the hell are you going to make an FPS for Kinect? How would you shoot. I think theres a better shot of PS Move having games that appeal to me.

I feel the same way. I can't even begin to wrap my head around ANY type of "mainstream" or "core" game that would be compatible with this thing.

I'm confused, do you need this if you don't bave a 360 Slim?

I won't be surprised at all when 360 comes out with a controller for the kinect. Like you guys are saying, there are not that many games you can play hands free. Sure you could golf with an invisible club but that's retarded.

did the numbers for Kinect come out yet?
is Microsoft on its way to hitting that 5 million mark by christmas?

its not a bad thing or something thats going to affect any of the games

much like the wii controller hacks out there using its wireless motion sensing capabilities for things other than the wii

Didn't it just come out a few days ago?

 

[MmmmBeeeeer]

I played this at a friends house and I must say I was quite amused with it, the only game we played was Kinect Adventures, but it was pretty fun with a group of people.

I was actually surprised at how well the technology worked, other than when a labrador is jumping around in front of you thinking you are playing with him :laugh:

There was a slight delay but nothing you couldn't compensate for. Would I buy it? No. Good party game with friends? Yes, definitely.

Thats not "hacking".

At least gamespot updated the article to clear up what it is.

After reading all the reviews from different sites,No way I will waste my money on this. Would rather go out and get the new Fall Out.

Ok I found a usefulness for the kinect.

The already many injury videos posted throughout the net have me laughing my ass off.
