whats crazy to me, is games like this on Wii usually get bad reviews. So is the tech really that good??? probably, with good reviews and good sales. Ninty AND Sony are in a bit of trouble.

What good reviews are you looking at? I see mostly poor to decent at best reviews, with the exception of Dance Central and Kinect Sports. I see a lot of afterthought third party Wii-esque games that wouldn't sell on the Wii, let alone the Xbox 360.

MS is falling for the casual fallacy with this addon and they may be the ones in a bit of trouble if they really think this thing will be what carries the 360 forward.

This is extremely hypocritical coming from a Wii fan.  These scores are right in line with typical scores Wii games get.

Of the Wii launch titles only 3 have a metacritic over 80:

Trauma Center:Second Opinion - 80

Madden 07 - 81

and Legend of Zelda : Twilight Princess - 95.  However it was actually originally developed for the Game Cube.

Wii Sports has a metacritic of 76.

The Kinect games are getting very decent reviews.
