I think gamers are afraid Microsoft will do what it did to the Pc gaming market when it went into the console field and gave it the old shoulder. Microsoft will have games in the future because they provided that at the beginning of this gen and lasted all the way till now. Kinect is something that doesnt market gamers of your choice but goes after a different kind of gamer, and or entertainment engineer like myself afficiano!!! Everyone will be taken care of just like everyone is taken care of with Windows. The more hate it recieves the better because the numbers will back up their claims and beliefs.

Dude, I am one of MS's biggest supporters (all the way to having a Zune HD), but even I am starting to think you are taking all these Kinects threads too far.

I can really care less what MS does with Kinect Same goes for Sony with the Move). I have no interest in the product.

NO.

MS is overpromising and underdelivering with Kinect.

like how they said you can scan anything, even your skateboard, and Kinect will recognize it. where is that game now?

the fighting game they showed at E3 last year where you can dp roundhouse kicks and crap. where is it?

that Milo dem (which was obviously scripted and CGI), where is it?

that Star Wars game that they showed (which was stupid. i mean, fighting Stormtroopers then fighting Darth Vader as the finale? really???)

there's more, but it gets kinda mean.

Incredibly hard to tell until it comes out.

The Move looks less than stellar, unfortunately.

bennie12

the scores that those games got were also bad. Dance Central will get AAAAE status like alot of people are saying, albeit I have it getting AAE, regardless its gonna score higher than lone move game, definitely sell better, lol, I mean the numbers that game is going to make. Lets be honest guys.

i will never play dance central, its just not my type of game, but you are right, it will probably sell a lot of copies.

Then I will admit I was wrong. But I know it will flop in the eyes of most here, gamewise. Now about sells.

The thing costs 150 DOLLARS. I can't see this selling well, but I will probably be wrong.

The fact that someone is genuinely defending Kinect makes me confused. :? It looks like garbage. Apart from the few unique titles it will possibly get, the amount of shovelware it's going to get is going to eclipse the entire Xbox 360 library, and bog it down.

Because I've seen it in action, and it looks like garbage. I know you'd give a spare kidney to save your Xbox 360, but cmon man. :P

I really wanted Kinect to be good. I actually ignored proper judgement and let my imagination for what could be get the better of me. Sadly the more they show the less impressive it becomes. There has not been a single piece of good news for Kinect since E3, the games are not there and even the technology seems lacking.

..

I understand the business decisions and maybe even more importantly the risk involved but MS quite literally did a 180 and started walking in the other direction as far as a target market is concerned. Its incongruent and its sloppy as a far as a game plan is concerned. You must have your reasons for the fanatical devotion to Kinect, but to me its been a disappointment followed by disappointment..

..

On a side note I find it pretty funny that when this generation started the biggest disappointment was Sony, with MS being that great comeback to all their arrogance and stupidity. Now it feels like things have been reversed...

It really isn't for anything else, but for this crap it's not worth it......at all. Even if it had good games I still wouldn't pay $150 for it. To many other and better things to use that money on.

I would rather buy the Halo Reach Legendary edition then Kinect.
