I'm really not sure what to think of kinect right now
Major critics like ign seem to hate kinect but smaller sites and the mainstream press seem to love it
its total hit or miss
|
The mainstream press praising it is what Microsoft wants. Kinect is aimed at people who don't own a 360 and aren't gamers.
|
But what will these people choose at the end of the year...?
A 299 $ X360S Kinect with Kinect games at $50 or a Wii (probably price-cuted at 149 $) with $40 games ?
|
Depends what's more appealing to the consumer. Wiimote controllers... or a cutting edge device that uses no controls and tracks your whole body.
The Wii's success has a lot to do with the innovative controls. The Kinect has that same advantage.
|
Certainly but you can't forget the price scheme...I'm pretty sure that a casual gamer is someone who will look at the whole thing and I'm not sure at all that the "innovation" aspect will reign supreme above the price one...
