@Alby da Wolf  couldnt agree more, I still dont see why they dont have advance reviews, Move had it, Wii had it(I think). IF your scared MS just say your scared!

We all understand if your too sared to go try it yourself. What would you do if you liked it. Like has been said before, MS has kinect set up all over the place fopr people to ry, i really doubt they 're scared of people using it. Ihaven't really read a bad hands on from a regulkar person who has tried it.

Regardless of whether he tries it or not, MS, just like Sony and Nintendo before them, should be willing to let their product be tested by those in the gaming media.  To me that does sound like fear.  Something tells me if things were reversed, you wouldn't be so quick to defend Sony.

I probably wouldn't be in the sony thread until i get my ps3 and my move, but thats besides the point. Kinect is not meant for gamers just yet, so why let the gaming media ruin the positive vibe it has going for it on the casual front? I wouldn't. They are playing it smart, no need for the gaming media, as they are not the ones they are trying to get to buy kinect. MS has Oprah, justin bieber and others to sell this product. They dont need gamer reviews. How is letting your potential customers use your product as is a sign of being scared to show it? I think it speaks for itself. Would you rather drive the car you will purchase yourself, or read a review of it? What gives you the better impression on how you will like someting or how it works.
