Looks like the Kinect defense team is in full force today. I'm still trying to figure why all of a sudden people are embracing motion controls.

It has nothing to do with Kinect defense team, it has everything to do with the fact defense team. The item isnt made nor sold by MS, its a USB extension cord.
The only extra piece of kit you need to use Kinect with an old 360 is a power brick, which MS have said will be included with the Kinect.
What the op linked ISNT a power brick.
No, I just felt like stomping out the ignorance in this thread BEFORE it blew up... Im not getting kinect... any time soon at least.Looks like the Kinect defense team is in full force today. I'm still trying to figure why all of a sudden people are embracing motion controls.

I can really care less about kinect but in TC's case if you're going to bash something at least know what you're talking about lol.[QUOTE="Gxgear"]

can we look at you if you are the first person to throw yourself on the bandwagon then fall under it and get run over?[QUOTE="lundy86_4"]
[QUOTE="ProjectNatalFan"]
lol at all the people that actually think that Kinect for 150 wont be shipped with this. Clueless if you ask me.
ProjectNatalFan
Is there any guarantee of that? Or are you just assuming?
yes I have heard MS say that Kinect will work with all consoles. I also see that this cord isnt made by MS lol I mean come on.
This is just an extension cable... Why would MS pack in an extension cable?
The power cord and brick alread comes with Kinect.

well, the cows got steamrolled in the first 5 minutes, but there are going to probably be plenty of late comers...

[QUOTE="Cherokee_Jack"]While this extension cable thing obviously isn't a necessary purchase for anyone, the thing to take away from this (if the price listed is accurate) is that MS is charging $50 for a cable that probably cost them about 50 cents.wolverine4262LOL... but that would still be wrong... Yeah, but if PDP is doing it I'm sure MS wouldn't think twice...

All you were looking for was clarification of his OP... which was complete nonsense...Gxgear

Stuff like this should be locked when disproven.yeah well i think the TC really thought that it was required or didnt know and was jumping for joy trying to break a story. In the end it was an extention cord like you pointed out but to get to that point it was pretty funny overall. The absuridty of it all just shows what type of place SW is.

"
Ouch...
So basically Microsoft is forcing everyone to either upgrade to a slim console or shell out an extra $50?"

in my topic I make sure and say I am unsure if you actually need it to play KinectClearly, this is a vital accessory not just for old model 360s but new ones as well. We all know how sensitive the console is to movement while playing a game. It's probably best to keep the console in a completely different room when people are jumping around playing Kinect games. :P
"not sure if this is true" yupnow the backtracking begins lol
Goodnight y'all this one was funny.

My god Kinect has accessories being made for it by 3rd parties... what the big deal here?Diviniuz
Wasn't a big deal. Just a failed attempt at cows trying to claim ownage, when the price of Kinect even with that $50 cable is STILL less than the Move.

He even says it's an extension cable in his own post. That's what makes it even more astounding. The only explanation for this thread's existence is that he did not know what an extension cable is.[QUOTE="KaoSXFACTOR"]

You know that $50 is just the wand correct? :lol:

Um no.... You need the camera, $40 and the charger kit $30 And if you plan on playing a game that involves movement you need the sub move controller which costs $30 + the move wand which costs $50.
Want to play with a friend? Add another $80. Even if you play alone some games will require 2 wands so that's $100. So no. It's not just the wand and a game.....

Not really.
What you need is the PSEye and the Move controller. The DS3/Sixxaxis can be used instead of the nunchuck.
Other than that its all optional.

Subs aren't required, it is already confirmed you can use the regular controller in stead of the subs. So take that out of the equation. Since we're going for; least amount of money required to use motion control on the HD consoles...this is the final pricing. 1 Wand 1 PS Eye 1 Charger Kit (I'm not sure if you can't just recharge it with Mini-B USB...but I'll list it anyway) $50 + $40 + $30 = $120 Maybe in an alternate universe in which $120 (Move) > $150 (Kinect), you're right. But... Move wins.[QUOTE="FragTycoon"]

I have the eye, don't need a charger kit, wont play withanyone at the same timeand Ihave enough dexterity to hold a PS3 controller with one hand so....
$50, ifI actualy wanted it.
Why dose that make you so upset?
