Was there ever any question as to who Microsoft was tergeting with the Kinect? It makes sense they have some kid show it off.

Then I can't really blame Microsoft if they think having that kid promote is gonna help. I really don't care either way. If Kinect gets a number of good games I'll buy it. If not, I wont. That simple. But theres no question in my mind as to weather or not Microsoft's target audiance with Kinect is or isn't the casuals. It never was something I was unsure of.

My respect for Microsoft and the Xbox brand just plummeted. Does anyone else find it incredibly creepy that these teen stars, and boybands, pray on little girls?

HAHAHAHAH. Good way to put a smile on my face for the day. To me, clever in a way, but it proves without a doubt who Microsoft's target audience is for Kinect.

My ears! MY EARS!!! :cry: I couldn't stand it past the 2-minute mark.

Onto the topic at hand, this is yet another one of Microsoft's publicity stunts, though I can't say this is anywhere near as effective as their Halo 3 ad campaign. These stunts are things people only 'hear' about afterwards tossed in with a negative spin by just about everyone in the press, gamer or not, as opposed to the Halo 3 trailer which was a huge surprise shown during a highly-televised event.

MS needs to stop wasting their money and go big again. Then again, Halo had a huge fanbase at the time and still does, so a stunt like that was guaranteed to work for it. This on the other hand...I don't know. Go crazy, MS! I want to remember this as a spectacular failure or at least not a miserable one like it's shaping up to be. >.>

I'm guessing seeing or hearing him sing would cut it down by at least a year? If so, I hope you haven't made too many enemies on the Internet. They might start something far worse than The Rick Roll.

Well it makes sense. Kinect's target audience is the younger crowd and they love Justin Bieber. Why wouldn't Microsoft use him?

Also, people shouldn't act like this drove them over the edge into not getting Kinect. Nobody here was going to get it anyways.

My 2 cents, anyways.

Kinect will BOMB in the gaming community but might do well since this THING or girl is advertising it.

Justin Bieber is one of the most annoying people I've ever heard of. That is not good advertising. I guess they know their audience, though.
