I agree with most of your post. My argument isn't really EyeToy vs Kinect, it's more of Move vs Kinect. Kinect is of a much higher quality than EyeToy. I would explain what I think about each of your points, but I don't want this any longer than it has to be. My opinion is that Kinect can become something great, but we haven't any evidence at the moment that it will be based on the lineup.

Well what kind of game would make the Kinect impress you? Its intended to appeal to casual userbase so they are making casual games. The Move was supposed to appeal to a core audience but its mostly just getting casual games and adding support for games that play fine on a joystick.

The Kinect is full body motion tracking and allows certain games to be more immersive than ever. Granted you can apply the Wiimote and Move to more genres we generally play. But I'm interested in what new things will come from the Kinect, while you are just focusing on its limitations.

I do like Dance Central, but that's about it. I don't think Kinect will sell that much to people who have the Wii, Nintendo has pretty much stolen that market.

Doesn't quite matter if they get Wii numbers. I'm expecting the Kinect to be a big success and that could lead to great sales for Dance Central. The Move is in a worse position because its likely not to sell as well and that's less potential to sell Move software.

The problem with you and me is that I'm seeing what Kinect is right now and might be later, while you're pretty much ignoring Kinect's lineup, and only looking towards the future.

No, your problem is you're bias and don't understand many people are interested in the Kinect's current line up. I look forward to what they have coming now and in the future. You're just waiting for games that appeal to a core gamer.

The Move not only appeals to casuals, but also enhances the gameplay for hardcore users, as you can see with Socom 4. Because of the Move being much more accurate, I'm sure we'll be able to see better casual and hardcore games that the Wii should have, could have, but didn't pull off due to its hardware.

The Kinect will have mass appeal to casual gamers and it'll definitely attract core users simply because its unique technology. The Kinect isn't gettting tons of attention because of politics, people are geniunely interested it full body motion tracking.

Casual gamers aren't going crazy about the Move because its too similar to something they have already experienced, the Wiimote. The PS3 isn't known for its casual userbase and I doubt the Move will attract them. I doubt Core gamers want to buy all that hardware just so they can "enchance" games they already enjoy with a joystick.
