after reading all the posts. i can see that most of you guys are like me and have an incline towards the move for price, games and performance. But i think we still need to wait a few more months to see what each piece of technology actually hold true. I am putting down some questions and problems each might have, lets see were it leads us.
A few problems Kinect might have:
Since there are no controllers if you have a lot of friends over, won't movement effect game play (since it doesn't have any registered tracing)? does it really have that good movement recognizing and tracking system as shown in the promo vids, i doubt it.
Ok moving arms and upper body is one thing. but how long can you jump around? even if the experience is a lot of fun. Given that we play games to relax and entertain ourselves.
Since this is a first, the technology might have lag and/or other problems with it, and if that happens you could have to get a new kinect (given our experience with Xbox's red ring of death) its not very promising reliability wise.
Plus the games are more expensive then Moves' ones.
As gamers we have gotten used to some sort of controller or keyboard or joystick or whatever it might be, as it makes us feel a part of the experience and greater sense of control, will the Kinect actually be able to make us feel the same way without any controllers. I mean if we are playing say football on Kinect, instead of kicking air in your living room and possibly breaking something, wouldn't we prefer to actually go out and play football with a real ball? Since we are doing most of the stuff anyway?
A few problems Move might have:
The controllers might breakdown, as chances of us throwing it around are high.
Might be hard to play with it for a longer period of time.
Might have lag if two + players are playing simultaneously.
Will other lights in the background distract it?
(i cant think of anymore right now if you can then add it)
