When the system is released in November, there are set to be 15 games available – most of which will be sports and fitness related.

Ubisoft have developed a game called Your Shape – Fitness Advanced which promises to knock the Wii Fit out of the market with its full body workouts and no bulky balance board.

Microsoft look like they’ve played a blinder here – but don’t take my word for it, go and try it for yourself.

Kinnect Rooms in London are on Russell Street just off Covent Garden market and will be open to the public from Saturday. For more details and to book your place, visit www.kinect.me The tour will also be travelling the country in the next few months. More details to follow

 

Everyone is aware that there is already a version of Ubisoft's Your Shape Fitness on the Wii, right?

http://www.fitsugar.com/Game-Review-Your-Shape-Wii-6127140

It's been available since November of last year.

It comes with a camera (doesn't use the Balance Board) that tracks and displays user movement and matches it against the proper form demonstrated by the in-game trainer.

Sound familiar?

I doubt the differences are great enough to hype Kinect as a product that offers an experience unlike any other.

Ubisoft basically just ported Your Shape Fitness for Kinect.

Chuckles... I think you will find that the Kinect version will be what the Wii version should of been but could never be.

there was another one with small kids on it and one kid was wearing a yellow dress which made kinect glitch  like crazy but apparantly this was because it needed calibrating for a dress.

lol but they still have time to fix these glitches. Unlike a lot of you, I don't hate Microsoft, I just don't like the 360.


Funny, I hate Microsoft, but I don't dislike many of their products, the only real shitty hardware that has a MS connection is actually the 360, they've always made solid hardware otherwise. Their software has a lot of bullshit in it but most larger software packages do as well, and Windows 7 isn't as shitty as that hell disaster of a piece of shit Vista, which has actual support for 64bit versions now.

Yeah i feel the same way. i hate microsoft for what they're trying to do. which is to create a monopoly on gaming by exploiting gamers with high prices.

At one point (00:38) its actually asking her to move to the right as well which shows its got no idea what its doing.

My guess is the flashing is interfering with the Kinect. We can't tell if the Move has the same problem because nobody cares. I mean... given that we see little coverage on the Move.

Anyhow, is Kinect being released in Japan for the Holidays?


Every Move demo has worked pretty much flawlessly while every Kinect demo has either been totally unimpressive with major lag and inaccuracy or has been a complete and utter failure (like this one).

Live in denial all you want but Move works very, very well. Kinect doesn't.

visit www.kinect.me here you can watch lots more happy smiling people playing Kinect and guess what sometimes it probably did not work. It is almost like F1 you are just waiting for the crash, Enjoy!

 

LOL, did you expect a site owned by MS showing people not enjoying or even bored by Kinect?

Even if that's true will someone like my wife even care especially when she paid  only $30 for the  Wii version compared to $150 for Kinect?

i come from Hong Kong and i played kinect in Animation-Comic-Game Hong Kong(7/30~8/3,first time in Asia)

have little delay but no any technical problems

i think reporter didn't care about kinect(nothing special,they always just care models...) so no one ask she to move left?

sorry for my poor english

 

and anakin is there!

Which game did you play, as far as I can tell the yoga and dance central are the only ones that work right and/or control decently

LOL first the PS eye tracking for a fighting game and now this, all kinect really has is hype and advertisement, it will be so pathetic if it is actually a success

I think so after all the Wii fit with a Balance board proved very successful and it did not come cheap. Your missus may be over the moon with her $30 version but she would be even more impressed with the Kinect version, your call ;)
