Kinect Injuries to kids on the rise

Player accidents are bound to happen when you're waving your arms around like that close to other people. At least these minor injuries aren't as bad as smashing your 50" plasma with a wiimote.

Enjoy the Kinect kids getting owned! in this video from MSN.

Not surprising. I bet the Eyetoy also had these problems.

HOW!? How do you do that to a TV without anything in your hand?

haha! that video is epic

How the hell do you do that to your TV without holding anything?

Some people's clumsiness never fails to amaze me. I'll be honest how un-athletic and uncoordinated are some people?

Nah that's from the wiimote, watch the video link

I got hit by my brother for beating him so many times in Street Fighter 2, at least these are accidental.

In that case it was something else, but one guy did hit the chain from his ceiling fan while playing volleyball on kinect which, in turn, flew off and broke his new LCD TV.

This is what happens when kids who don't do any real physical activity are then forced to start doing such things in a enclosed space.. I can't wait for the videos of fat people who wreck something in their house or hurt them selves using kinect start surfacing.sSubZerOo

It's amazing how many Casual Gamers try to wave the Remote/Wand/Hand right in front of the TV and how close they get to the TV when playing the game, some people need to understand that They need to aim thier Remote to the Sensor Bar and Wave their Wand and Hand at the Camera, NOT the TV.

and every Motion controlled game HAS TO HAVE A WARNING telling you to be sure that you don't hit anyone. Like the Wii, it tells you everytime. (even if the game offers little motion what so ever).

That's what it is, I think.
