When I was 8 I was playing my snes and genesis with game pads...

20 years later I am playing my Ps3 and 360 with game pads

So yes I actually do think we will in be using them in another 20years time!

Kinect doesn't "make it worse" to me. What makes ya'll think you speak for all gamers? I also don't know why you act like you "KNOW" everything that’s going to happen in the future, and come here just to come across like a complete douche. That is your right and hopefully you like being perceived that way, because that’s exactly how I do, but don't come here and bash someone else's opinion just to shove your OPINION down their throats like its fact. It's better to keep your mouth shut, and see how it plays out before you speak, and don't just spout off a bunch of crap that may end up making you look so stupid when you're wrong. Why take that chance?

show me one good serious kinect game. I'm not saying you shouldn't like it , it just sucks in gaming and that's a fact. I think they must remove it until they come up with something good related to gaming . Forcing it will backfire at the xbox and fans too because you know what ?. Sales will be less so less games . Playstation move is a looooooot better then kinect and have hardcore games support but you see us show off about it ?. Because it's not something worth it right now . People are not interested in motion stuff yet because they still don't see it necessary and it gives them worst experience when it should give them better..

People are not interested in motion stuff yet because they still don't see it necessary and it gives them worst experience when it should give them better and they are much more expensive then the normal controls . So i think i speak for all people who play serious games not dancing .. :)

I can't speak for anyone else but I know what I need it for. Doesn't matter what you think. I want it and i'm getting it.

Look even if kinect works great the bigger problem is that you have spent so much on research for options people may or may not want ... If they dont you are screwed if its a hit , Sony already has the capability to implement similar ideas ... From a business perspective I feel MS should have stuck to their roots ... Xbox 720 would have been just fine ... Great actually

It's probably voice commands that can be done with just a mic.

"I can't speak for anyone else but I know what I need it for. Doesn't matter what you think. I want it and i'm getting it."

Yeah that was an odd answer to a very simple question.

*hint. see the 8 disagrees on an Xb1 related articles and me talking something good with some logic applies to it for the XB1 and Kinect. Oh, once again this thread is hijacked by..hmmm..I will keep my mouth shut or I'll lose another bubble. LOL

Yeah. Don't do that. Lol. They don't like that.

Same reason as you have 2 eyes instead of 1. 2 cameras working in sync (this is important) provide something called "depth of vision" (aka 3rd dimension). Try to do some routine tasks which require depth of vision with your one eye closed, you'll get the feeling for a while (before your brain's ability to lean, adapt and compensate kicks in).

What has the brains ability to process visual data got to do with a computer processing visual data? Are you saying 2 cameras are needed to work out whats in the room and at what distance, or is there something else?

Thought you'd understand the analogy. Well, the 2 cameras when work in sync via specific software algorithms can and will simulate the 3rd dimension information to the machine. Have you ever seen trick photography where a person "appears" to swallow sun, or "hold" a skyscraper in his hand etc? those trick shots happen due to lack of depth of field. in this case, If a gaming device lacks that ability, the console can't guess fine movements in Z axis (towards console or away from console). If equipped with 2 cameras, PS eye in this case, can inform PS4 for very precise movements of lets say facial expressions, which are very minute changes (as opposed to movements of hands etc.) and occur in all 3 dimensions. Unless you have a 2D flat face.
XB1 has one camera, which however superior in terms of optics, can not provide this additional but crucial info to the XB

Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wik... and my own professional knowledge in the field.

Beyond this purpose, I have heard that second camera on PS eye can be programmed by the developers for two different purposes at the same time (don't know how will it actually work). Fanboyism apart, but in terms of technology and possible implications, I guess PS eye is supirior to Kinect 2.0. Did I mention that PS eye also incorporates 4 channel microphones?

*EDIT*: I am personally not a fan of this entire motion gaming $hit. I'm glad Sony didn't make it the central theme of PS4 and treated it as a minor optional thing.
