I can put up a video of someone kicking a ball with Kinect Sports which the Wiimotes can't detect, but it has nothing to do with their ability to simulate drumming.
What is your comparison, that both systems have musical applications? Because I think his point was Kinect's ability to track finger movements, not that a musical app of some kind is possible with Kinect and not with any other console system.
Kinect only works at 30 fps, that's why it has a considerable ammount of lag, I don't think it could recognize you drumming an imaginary drum set at the speed thisguy is drumming. Plus, he's sitting, another let down, you have to be standing for kinect to work with skeleton tracking...
Seriously, if you're going to keep discussing Kinect I'd suggest you do at least a bit of research....this was fixed months ago. I've played Joyride while sitting just fine. They simply changed the root tracking joint from the base of the spine to the neck.
Secondly the lag, or latency to use a more correct term, of Kinect is only about 200ms, and that's after having to all the computational work to render a scene and animate a character. The raw data has extremely small perceptible lag.
You other point about drumming is still baffling, why is this even relevant to this thread? I can guarantee you the lag with Wii kick tracking is FAR worse than Kinects drum tracking. I think you'll be waiting years for your kick to register with the Wiimote in your hand. Again though, it's completely irrelevant to the topic.
To cut a long story short, Kinect does not work while sitting and Joy Ride has autopilot for sitting players:
You couldn't find a worst example! :)
I've seen that video, just because it somewhat steers (while still ramming into walls and going off path) when he doesn't move his hands doesn't mean it does nothing when you DO use your hands or use your body for boost. The game still responds to my movements.
