Their has been a lot of good feedback on kinect when it was being tested at E3. So something went wrong on that stage it happens with all new products. But this is nothing more then flame bait for xbox haters. If Microsoft really didn't have faith in this product in my opinion they wouldnt be holding these big live demo events. So obviously something unexpected happened on that stage.

Real world. When you least expect it, it barges in.   

Kinect is aimed at people that mostly won't even read the user manual, so unexpected things and behaviours will be the rule, not the exception.


yeah thats right... 

I must make sure i dont let the paparazzi into my living room in future... and anyone playing in my house better be able to read english on screen instructions or I wont be happy.

You know I played a japanese version of a RPG once... I think it was a broken piece of code because I couldnt get it to work and I didnt have a clue what  was doing..... why do they release unfinished buggy games!!!!???

 


Did you watch the video? If I am not mistaken Kinect told them girl on the left to move to the right and the girl on the right to move to the left.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Before anyone quotes me and asked why we don't see any of this stuff about The Fight getting bashed on I would like to inform you that I, the same person who posted a negative Kinect article is the same one who posted and explained how The Fight got hammered.

Here is the thread before anyone even wants to even try to cry out bias.

 

"

I found this out from their other Move article, which also praises it on precision and also kills The Fight: Light Out."

http://scrawlfx.com/2010/07/hands-on-playstation-move-games

 

From this thread about the precise controls of Time Crisis I went out of my way to speak out about the bad preentation and problems of The Fight, something that I am sure wouldn't be liked in a positive article about something other than that game.

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=113677&page=1&str=169736280#8


so basically fight:lights out is just a bad game, and it's not the move which is bad thanks for confirming that to cetain people who like to mak move look bad, may i also point out that there are some very impressive tech demos i have posted in the official move thread that you all need to check out if you have any doubts on move's potential you should watch it to confirm how awesome it is:):)

Yes, it is entirely The Fight: Lights Out since every other game worked just as they said it would, and this was a live demonstration played by the journalists at ScrawlFX.

This thread isn't about Move though, I just wanted to make it clear that there is no agenda behind negative Kinect articles if and when I post them, because if I find more, I will post them. Same goes for the Move, just as I have.

As a potential consumer and member of a site that I rely on for accurate news I think more than not the people here appreciate brutally honest articles rather than sugar coated.

Honestly, I could care less if this thing works or not.  I have yet to see one piece of software to get me excited for this thing at all.  I think Microsoft is going to have a hard time selling this to anyone outside of hardcore xbox fanboys at $150.  Even the $300 combo deal os going to be a hard sell considering that a Wii can be bought for a $100 less and has the likes of New Super Bros. Wii and Mario Kart Wii.  Kids will go to their friends house and play Wii, and want to buy Wii, not Kinect.  I'm having a hard time trying to figure out who Microsoft is marketing to here.

And to everyone who says, "look at how much fun people are having though!"  Have you ever seen a movie so bad, that it's hilarious?  Movies like "The Room", "Over the Top", and "The Wizard" remain popular for this very reason, and it's hard not to watch them without smiling.

By this logic nobody will buy Move either so I guess we are wasting our time because both will be failures. Thanks for clearing that up.

I'm not interested in Move either, but at least it has buttons.  Also games like Resident Evil 5, Heavy Rain, and Killzone 3 already have Move support.  I'll personally stick with a regular controller, but those games with motion support seem more interesting then anything Kinect has shown me.

And by the way, I haven't cleared anything up.  This is a personal opinion.

@bolded- How is the Move bundle going to sell when it costs twice as much as a Wii?

I never said Move was going to sell.  

But I think Sony is trying to target gamers more, where as Microsoft is simply trying to snag Wii's casual audience, which I don't think will work.  I could be wrong and eat my words.  Who knows?
