Before Black Friday..Sony listened..this is HUGE news!!
I honestly feel for Need for Speed..the original release date was well out of GT5's path..now...not so much..EA just let out a collective OUCH
Damn you Sony..now I got to rush and buy that wheel..can't play the mother of racers with the DS3 alone..
Great news for gamers...

Lol @ you obviously never playing Dance Central..
Dance Central is a hit because it is the first time you have to really dance. DDR is a long running series and still popular, but ultimately it's still a mat game..Dance Masters is the only Kinect game that can be compared to DDR..Harmonix hit DC out of the park..and they easily have a new franchise and one of the best if not the best titles of the Kinect launch
The best are
Kinect Adventures -Suprisingly fun.. A family winner..great pack-in
Kinect Sports- Party mode is a blast and contains arguably the best bowling of the motion control consoles
Kinectimals - Ultra suprise..wayyyy more packed in than I thought was in this title..
Dance Central - Crazy fun..the best dance ttle on the market
Fitness Evovled - Super engaging..provides a great illusion that ...
If that's what it costs then it smart..
People pretend that gaming companies should price their products at a loss..
The fact is if it costs 56 dollars and the consumers gets a pack-in game then it matches what Wii and Move are doing to make profit..
The haters hate when Microsft makes money, but are quick to laugh at them if they are not successful when the quarterly reports come..

I'm so glad I didn't sit back and listen to some reviewer before I bought Kinect. I like GamePro as a mag..bought many off the stands but IMO this review doesnt represent the actual product..
GamePro: 'the hard truth is Kinect can't register more than one person at a time'
The REAL truth is that I've been playing since last Thursday and two player works perfectly. Had a party last weekend and played split screen for 5 straight hour...
Why would Kinect need to play 2D Street fighter..when the 360 controller can it just fine. Please show us that Move enabled Street Fighter as well..
Why would Kinect do 2D Street Fighters when games like Fighters Uncaged are already moving towards the fighting experiences Kinect can take advantage of..
Suppoesedly, there will be a MMA game that's already in the works..
It's funny watching how hard these guys have to reach to hat...
Bam!
+ Bubz @ Dirty..wow didn't realize Kinect was getting that kind of love all the way around..
The funniest part is watching the hater cling to the End Gadget review like it's the second coming of video gaming sites..LOL

Some guy walks to a 'local emporium' in the UK and then writes a paragraph pretending that what he saw there 'proves' that Dance Central is not selling in America and elsewhere in UK?
Internet gaming journalism is NOW 'Lamer' than I thought..

Blaming Kinect because the games released so far havent used the voice controls as much? Weak
Asking for specific voice control because somebody at the edge of your couch may accidently say pause during your movie? Weaker
Kinect needs to show your living room while playing the game? Weakest..if kotaku actually played the games they reviewed they can see that each one tells you an area to stand and the game informs you when you leave that area..
...
LOL @ this guy pretending that Kinect is too challenging for young kids..but doesnt even let his kid actually play a kid game..
We played with kids this weekend and they absolutely loved Kinect..
The only mistake kids AND adults make is that the games are so immersive they sometimes step out of the play area of the camera..but the games tell you when this happens...
Kinect adventures is family friendly to the core.but a 3 year old isn...
Look like the site cut and pasted someone else's assessment of Kinect..
Kinect actually pulled off everything it demonstrated at E3..
No one cares if you can't navigate Xbox Marketplace..it's actually 100 times better to use a controller when you would be buying and downloading games..
But what would be HUGE is if they add Netflix support sometime soon..
As for the games..just like Move the initial batch a...
Other than the fact, that I didn't try to experiment with room size changes..I agree with Edge's assessment on Kinect
Bought it Thursdy and we have been playing every night since..
I bought Kinect Sports, Motion Sports, Kinectimals initially..then went for the Target special buy 2 get one free special and picked up Dance Central and Fitness evolved..
My place was Party Central all-weekend..between famiuly and friends we had over...
LOL @ someone saying Kinect is better than sex..
I always keep it 100% real because it's silly to sit on the internet and lie just to prove your point..
I always said that 'if' Microsft could pull this off then this would be a hands-down success because of the unique approach they were taking to motion gaming.
As the year progressed, Kinect got hit with the same fan blogger hate we've all come to expect during this conso...
I always love when people become Elitist gamers when something comes out that they are trying to bash.
I could care less if you believe someone like me who purchased Kinect or the usual haters who frequent every Kinect article to bash something they will never purchase.
It hilarious that people have to call people names who buy games to have fun. Millions of people bought the Wii for fun. Millions will buy Kinect and Move for the same reason.

Kinect doesn't need to be an FPS controller. The 360 controller and controllers in general are the best for console games period.
Even Move has implementation problems in games..because it competes with the controller experience.
I bought Tiger Woods 11 this weekend and all the bad reviews for the Move implementation were right. They made the experience to clunky to enjoy. I tried for almost an hour and gave up out of frustration.
...
I've more than tried it...
I own it..
Verdict: It works great..it's a blast and just like the Wii the true word of mouth is going to give this thing legs..
It doesn't matter if somebody takes a picture of no one playing Kinect in a department store..it's still going to sell
Of course it won't do as well in Japan..but that's nothing new for the 360 over there..
When the masse...
Been playing Kinect everyday since Thursday it's a complete blast...
I've been talking about Child of Eden every since the Ubisoft press conference @ E3..I can't wait for this game
This title is perfect for Kinect and I hope it get's the exposure it deserves..
lol @ Kilzone still talking pre-launch Kinect and lag..
People own it now..the lag issue was deaded as soon as I booted it up..
Coolest thing..it works..
Least fantastic.Wish it worked with Netflix as well as Zune video and music..
Either way..love this thing
Evil
LOL @ pretending that there ARE glaring ISSUES..
Dashboard..
You currently can use Kinect with Zune, ESPN etc.
They didn't match it with Netflix yet..I can imagine that Microsoft want to promote more use of Zune..smart
Hopefully we get the patch later on to use it with Netflix..obviously not an issue because EVEYONE doesnt have a netflix account..but anyone with Gold can use Zune
Thus far it's ...
Whether they listened or 'recognized' that releasing GT5 before Black Friday in the states was pretty huge..especially after the first rumor of it dropping Nov. 30th..
Great news regardless..
