And just like that, rumour turns to bollocks.

But we all knew it was anyway :)

So where is their review? Nowhere, that's where. He didn't even say when they would review it.

Precisely.

I've said it once, twice, three times.  I've argued it on various occassions.   Regardless of where you stand in this console war bullcrap.  Microsoft has hidden, protected, lied, exaggerated, forgot to mention, told half truths, etc details about Kinect from day one.   If that doesn't concern you, you're blind as a bat.

Now they pump out a $500 million dollar ad campaign?   Why spend such an enormous amount of money if your product is solid?  It's easy to see.  They are trying to force Kinect's popularity on the market despite it being a product that absolutely will not work AS advertised. 

This whole product has a terrible stench of deception and failure...I can't even believe people out there aren't in total wait and see mode with this.
