GTFO.

Shut it.....how about you GTFO?

Do you play FH2? or are you one of those blind hater cows going around trying to convince people that "driveclub really IS a good game".

In FH2 Kinect works great, there is no need to spend time pissing about in menu / map screens.....just say "anna, nearest event" or something else that you want to do and your course is set. Its well implemented and I use it every time I play the game, many reviewers enjoyed it too.

Its use in FH2 is exactly how kinect should be integrated. Add it into the game, but only to make it a useful part of the experience instead of having it try and do do something it wasn't supposed to do (like steer your vehicle or aim a weapon).

You're an idiot if you really think people are "daft" for buying X1 without a Kinect. All I gotta say

and you are an idiot for not understanding why i think that

Nope. I understand completely. But thank you agreeing that you are an idiot.

Fantasia = 8

Dance Central Spotlight = 8

D4 = 7 ( better w/ kinect = fact )

For hardcore games yes it's pretty much useless other than voice commands during games. But for games like these it works and works well.....these games scored as well as any PS4 exclusives so far LOL

Also not only is kinect good for the above games it's also top notch for navigating your Xbox One, which I use on an everyday basis. Useless my ass!

Indies don't count they say...

TowerFall Ascension 87%

Velocity 2X 87%

Rogue Legacy 86%

Resogun 85%

Transistor 84%

Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee - New 'n' Tasty 83%

Sportsfriends 81%

Don't Starve: Console Edition 80%

By the way all 3 games you posted have 79% or less on meta..

What's really useless are the Playstation Kinect and the Playstation TV and even the forgotten Playstation Move. Sony seems to create these things because they never follow up and make good games for them like how Microsoft continues to support Kinect. Recently I've been using the Kinect for movies, recording, and turning off the system. These voice commands became second nature and an extension on the controller. So far the Kinect has a variety of games with decent scores while the Playstation Kinect not so much.

It's definitely great for FH2. I use it as well. It's main problems was it being a huge selling point and there really wasn't any great games that supported it at launch. It works ok for navigating the UI, but I never used it for TV or NFL Fantasy Football or any of that crap. I wanted it more for games. Kinect Sports Rivals is ok and Dance Central has always been good, but we need new IP's for it. Haven't tried D4 yet. I hope M$ has something innovative up their sleeves.

@chutebox. Right, so you bought an optional camera for playstation, either before or after deciding that kinect is daft.

If you don't like it, fine, but don't call me an idiot for recognising it as a useful device which works well in a number of applications. to buy an x1 without kinect is daft imo, because you are limiting your ability to enjoy the console to its full potential. if you cant grasp that, you are an even bigger cretin than I thought.

@blackace, I don't use it for those type if games tbh. I use it to navigate the interface and voice control sometimes in games like fh2.

Now that its optional again, it may mean less devs using it in an interesting way. Don't know

I didn't call you an idiot for that. I called you an idiot because you called people who don't buy it with an X1 daft. That's all. I never said it's not useful (here at least) or any of that. So not sure why you are throwing that on me. And you just keep showing just how stupid you are. Relax. It's plastic. Don't cry over it.

lol keep hiding on gamespot scores which mean total shit to the great great majority of video gamers who actually user reviews as measurement.

That is a joke after you people hyped minecraft,super meat boy and many other on xbox 360,now all of the sudden since MS basically loss all indie support those are not valid,since the argument is been done by me,you may as well quote me downplaying indies on 360,a game is a game period.

Kinect and Cloud POWAH are ground breaking! MCC will be the best release of the decade! This is beyond contestation. All hail the might and glory of the X1!

I don't think it's useless, but its not essential. Definitely did not need to be packed in with the Xbox One originally.

@chutebox. So please explain why I am stupid and an idiot, you claim to have said its because I called people buying one without kinect daft, but on your last post you say that you didn't call me an idiot for that reason..

So what exactly is your point?

You've contributed nothing but insults to this thread, why not explain your point shitface?

I've already explained it. How you didn't understand is beyond me. I did call you an idiot for that comment. Because it's just plain stupid.

From your quote, "but don't call me an idiot for recognising it as a useful device which works well in a number of applications"

This quote shows me you either didn't know what I was talking about or went in super defensive mode about Kinect whenyou didn't need to.

You saying people buying X1 without Kinect are daft is basically you calling anyone not agreeing with your preferences stupid. Much likes this "conversation" has been stupid. I'm done. But go ahead and keep insulting people who don't like the same things as you.

@sts106mat:

I said GTFO because you said something stupid. Not useless. It's there because I was pointing out your narrow viewpoint. But I don't expect you to understand.

I insulted you because you were being a child. I know I'm going to be the called the same right now. So like I said, lets move on.

nah, I wont call you any more names. I still dont think what i said is stupid, that's my opinion.

I'll put the insults away and we can start afresh some other time.

Sounds like a plan, bud.
