sweet lord look at that poll, I am hoping that those voting actually own a 360.

No majority of polls are voted by 360 fans on this site

I'd say it's probably 50/50 in terms of 360 fans here.

No games on launch that I should spend either my money or my time on. 4 casual market games? Really?

Hopefully within the next year Kinect will have its killer app for those who aren't in the casual market, but until then, Kinect isn't worth $150 to "upgrade" and I'll be holding out for a better Kinect/360S bundle some time next year.

In the meantime, Move gets my $ since it's only a $50 purchase for me. If the games are good, I'm sure I'll buy more controllers.



I'm definately getting it. Actually I may have to pick up two.

two!? that's a new system



Even if I got over the price I still face the problem of having no space to actually use it. Even if I some how overcome that problem I still don't see any piece of Kinect only software that interests me at this point sans Dance Central.So no

Yes. @ launch.



Everyone needs to play Lost Odyssey! Any opposition to this and I will have to just say, "If it's a fight you want, you got it!"

The price is just ridiculous. Over here in Europe Kinect is even more expensive, 150 Euros = 200$.

My whole Xbox 360 that I bought 2 1/2 years ago only cost me 190 Euros up to date! And for that money I got a brand new Xbox 360, two brand new controllers, 4 months of XBL, a refurbished hard disc drive and so on. That was a pretty good deal. But 150 Euros for what I still consider to be hardly more than an improved EyeToy? No thanks. I will wait until the first hype is over. After just a few weeks most core gamers should already have completely lost interest in Kinect and it should be possibly to buy an almost brand new Kinect for maybe half the price.

So now that the price has been comrimed at 150 will you be getting Kinect?

But, Kinect is not enticing them to buy a 360. So they would count.



A qualified no. No I won't be buying for Xbox 360, mostly because I have no current plans to buy a 360. But if it has applications that can be run through PC then it's on the cards at some point in the future.

Once again a poll that doesn't have an equivocal option, where I want to give an equivocal response.
