[QUOTE="Ninja-Hippo"]I like Cracked, but has David Wong EVER seen a new piece of technology and not concluded that it will be the death of the gaming industry?RogueShodownCracked articles tend to exaggerate everything to make the topic more entertaining, but that really shows the limits of Kinect. I don't really see anything amazing coming out of it that people would want to pay $150 to have access to. Unless Kinect somehow becomes compatible with other electronics, it really won't be very useful. Are you serious or just a confused fanboy?
[QUOTE="atarigrad"]If it's so much more advanced then why can't you play any of 360s greatest games on it... Kinect doesn't need to play those games to be good it has it's own.That's what controllers are for buddy.So Dance Central and Ubisoft's exercise game plus kinectimals are negative feedback? Kinect will be a HUGE seller. Mark my words. It is so much more advanced than PS Move. It's funny how Sony always makes fun of what they are afraid of!

What's with all the sales topics ever since E3? Suddenly they matter?

people know that MS 360 is going to sell like Hotcakes and also KNow Kinect is going to sell and they have to eat crow. You can say there is alot of people worried that MS is going to succeed in what they set out to do. Im very happy for them, I prepaid my new 360 and cant wait to get Kinect!!!
You didn't even answer his question. Sales shouldn't and really don't matter unless you're somehow making money off of the 360 and Kinect selling so much. If sales don't matter can you explain to everyone another way you can tell if people really like something.Or do you want gamespot and other review sites to tell you?[QUOTE="i5750at4Ghz"] The real world will eat this up, has it ever entered your mind that maybe this product like so many other in the market place just weren't made with you in mind or core gamers in general? As far as fanboys go, I;m a PC gamer I could care less. I'm simply a fan of the tech, THE TECH IS AMAZING. Growing up playing duck hunt I would have fell in love with something like this.subrosian
The real world likes every gadget "in theory", the question becomes "will they pay $150 for it?" or, for those who don't own a 360, "will they pay $350 for it?"... and we don't know that yet. Please stop assuming you know my motivations, know what I enjoy in gaming, or that I haven't considered all angles. This strategy is far more risky than Microsoft would like to have their shareholders believe. They're entering a crowded market, going against the Wii, have their competition introducing the Move, and have to struggle to establish brand identity. The short-term won't tell us crap, and yes, there is a negative backlash, C|NET has a few articles absolutely ripping Microsoft.
For anyone who defends this, I would like you to post your motivation for doing so. If Microsoft isn't sending you a check, why do you care if people attack the device? How does it harm you? Deep down inside, are you worried it will fail? Are you worried the skeptical voices will cause it to fail?
Yes people will buy it.How do you think apple is still in business.u mad noone wants move[QUOTE="genaroll"][QUOTE="fightninja162"]
amazon lol lets wait for some real results
if thats the case that it sells good here and worldwide all I could say is if aliens were to come here wanting to speak to creatures with high intelligence i'd sent them to animals.

yea you got meim so jealous of kinect. :D
Never asked if you were jealous but it shows since you said that.[QUOTE="fightninja162"]thats a guess. honestly i wouldnt use any websites guess at pricing until its official even though that is the most likely price. I also wouldnt use amazons sales figures as a indicator in how well something is selling. The prices are right.Amazon is on the xbox live dashboard so it's good to see if people with a 360 really want it.I just checked on amazon
kinect $150
kinect joy ride $59.99
kinect sports $59.99
talk about rip off
if people buy this they deserve to be taken advantage off
