Pretty much confirmed what I already knew about kinect, it's limitations are abysmal and it really isn't going to get any better then we've already seen, Sony knows tech, MS doesn't, the fact Sony passed on 3D cameras (having the most experience with camera games) speaks volumes of why it isn't that good for games

sony have always tried to appeal to hardcore and casual, they havent done that a lot this gen to the casual, but the appeal they try to acheive is one of the reasons they didnt continue advanving on the eye toy tech. while ms now are appealing to both we already know by next years line up that its going to hurt a fanbase, even though hardcore kinect titles are coming out, im sure everyone would rather play it with a controller.

I have to ask what hardcore kinect titles, and I think people are getting the wrong idea about causals, kinect launch games maybe okay and fun for the start but they will expect alot more soon, and where Nintendo delivered I don't think MS can, right now MS is hiding behind the wow factor with it's games, people forgive the games because the tech is new in their minds, but in a few months they won't be so forgiving
