How generic, the kinect is an eye toy clone....you forget microsoft had a xbox vision cam? That was a eye toy clone and it sold like the eye toy....crappy. The eye toy can't do anything the kinect does or sony would be doing it. The fact is kinect is an amazing piece of tech that sony nor nintendo had the funds to risk producing and marketing. If the could they would trust me, microsoft has already made millions of the pre orders, this thing is going to make bank for microsoft.

Funny last year when the ps3 slim came out out was all about sales and how the 360 had a year head start and sony is closing the gap. Now that the 360 is owing sales mean nothing lol. The best part is 360's line up is better than sony's lol. Microsoft has a counter title for every one sony had planned. Sony is nearly doomed, wait till after the holidays when xbox lead is major and you see software sales double on the 360 versus the ps3, this kinect can't hurt the 360,after the hol...
Shows you how much ps3 has going for it lol.
I don't know if you noticed but the u.s sales are more than every other country combined. The xbox only trails in japan and it's still the number 1 selling console overall worldwide weekly almost outselling the ps3 2:1.
Like you fanboys are acting like you dont sense the excitement for kinect. It's the reason why 3/10 stories on the front page of this site every 2 or 3 hours are kinect related. The same reason a $150 is keeping pace with a $60 AAA exclusive blockbuster title (gt5) actually it beat gt5 buy almost a thousand pre orders last week. The marketing hasn't even begun, the normal person has no clue about kinect.
These articles are always negative, why? Is it because the 360 i...
Whether you like it out not, you guys do realize its gonna sell millions right? All the talk of once people try it they will return it is b.s. once they try it they will love. They are not thinking about how not hardcore this is, there thinking how fun and simple it is, which is the goal. Microsoft knows what it's doing.
I want dance central and kinect sports, that's 3 kinect titles, my gf wants your shape fitness, thats four titles along with having reach and fable 3 soon, I'm more than satisfied with my lil box that could :), I also want medal of honor but idk can't play 2 shooters at once :/
because despite how many negative articles n4g wants to post, were still getting it lol, everything in this article has been said before. Yes we know about the 6ft rule even though I've played it only 3 or 4 get away. Yes we know if you have an old xbox you have to plug it into a wall. Yes the kinect has to be 2-6 ft off the ground, why would you want it less than 1 ft or higher than 6 ft?? Complaining about simple requirements. Ill go check the pre order charts as almost 15,000 people si...
I was gonna take a pic of all the ones at gamestop but I felt weird cause the worker stands in front of them cause they're in that glass case, same with wal mart, next time I won't be as shy
Japan sales don't mean dick, only in the japan the last place console is 1st in the world. Microsoft literally doesn't need the japan market to succeed, minus the lifetime totals in japan and it would still be ahead of sony and says alot for a company only on there second console.
I just noticed most companies golden age is there second console. Snes, playstation 2, sega genesis, xbox 360. Let's hope microsoft avoids the 3rd console curse.
Most feedback is overwhelming positive, especially if you go to the macy's store and gamestop will have it soon if not already. Go hands on, the negative feedback only helps. It's from people assuming, then when you play it you realize holy shit the lag isn't an issue, I thought out would be slow and unplayable lol so thanks haters cause people actually play it they love it.

orly? Notice its only $ 89.99 btw
First off smart man, why would you need voice recognition for dance central? Secondly every single report I read on the voice recognition it worked flawlessly. The reviewers even go as far to say it worked even though the room was loud. Youtube it most times there in a crazy atmosphere with crowds watching and playing and it picks up "xbox stop" it has a nice canceling mic like my cell phone does so it works fine in noisy conditions.
Kinect is not for hardcore games, what don't you idiots get? Do you even wanna stand for 4 hours playing a game? No you do not, no one does. Kinect is ment to be played in 1 or 2 hour intervals usually taking turns, you know casually. There will be challenging games but don't espect a full on rpg or shooter. Microsoft has not promised any thing of the short, so stop with the what about us hardcore gamers, you hardcore gamers will have c.o.d, reach, fable , crysis, bulletstorm, kindoms...
Why don't you guys try it first? The lag is very small, doesn't hamper the gameplay at all the lag is almost needed so you get back to postion, and yes it does matter if you both jump, if you both jump st the same time you go higher and further, of went to game stop today to reserve a kinect and guy said they don't take reserves lol. I said dude my gf works at gamestop (she quit months ago) you guys take pre orders, he's like hold on......stalls for 5 mins then is like oh ok, ...
No idiot the 360 was $299 for the basic and $399 for the pro set.
I'm a kinect and xbox supporter and I will admit those are good numbers, still hard to believe because its not sold out anywhere on long island. I will honor these numbers though, can't wait to see kinect's and you guys will say it's cause of marketing, but I've have yet to see a kinect commercial besides the macy's one from last month. I'm seeing move commercials every 20 mins, granted there showing titles that aren't out yet, there more funny than informative...
The japs will eat this up. More negative comments, looked like it worked just fine during the tgs demos.
Kinect is not for the hardcore, you guys are idiots lol, stop being so butt hurt that it's for casual gamers. You will have your kingdoms,gears,halo's,fabl e Microsoft will disappoint when it comes to throwing money at developers. E3 will bring the focus back to hardcore. You'd have to be an idiot not to use E3 as a launching pad for the companies most important accessory. I'm buying one, I wanna see it marketed I wanna see that there serious with follow up support, and I'...
Um because every week for the past 3 weeks that I go to gamestop and put $60 on my bundle the kinect demo is packed, so much that they now have 2 stations. Everyone loves it is impressed, why? Cause when fanboys who haven't played it complain about lag and how lame it is, then people who neutral try it they see the lag is very little, they start to wonder....what else are they wrong about. Kinect haters are the biggest salesmen lol. All you do is make people wanna see if it's true and...
