Does it matter if Kinect works right?

Kinect not working right is bad for flame wars but not exactly bad for sales. I fully agree that the controls on the Wii dont always work right and it is a huge success. But then again Microsoft built their foundation with core gamers, the 360 was a faulty piece of hardware but coming out a year early with early core exclusives and a great controller and innovative XBL they succeeded. I don't know if the 360 can handle both markets but it looks like they are going to try.

I know this is a little off topic but great controller? XBL innovative? They copied the ps3 controller (or rather ps2) then changed it around enough to avoid getting sued and claimed it was better or more ergonomic or whatever which was just pure marketing BS as for XBL being innovative, it was not maybe on xbox original it was but the same thing can't be innovative twice in a row 

19 posts and lots of those are anti 360.  Keep up the good work mate!  You fit right in around here...

On topic, as long as the Kinect is fun to play and the controls aren't broken enough that it takes you out of the "experience" it will do fine.

When I give Kinect a try to be honest I don't expect it to be perfect.  From all of the demos I have seen most people seem to be enjoying theirselves and having fun.  If for some reason they aren't being picked up by the device or it has a little lag doesn't seem to bring them out of the devises fun factor.  This is what I will be judging it on.

Hopefully the device will continue to develop into something that has little to no flaws in it.  Microsoft will continue to work on it and I am certain that eventually they will get it right with future updates either way.
