Forums - Microsoft - Kinect unboxing. IGN.

Did MS change their mind on reviews, or is there still the embargo till it launches?  Another question.  Why is IGN encouraging people to go out and buy Kinect when all he did was open a box?  Shouldn't they do a review, and if it's good, then tell people to go out and buy it?

well by the time they actually play those games , the kinect releases, and unboxing isn't a review , its just...... unboxing, the most pointless video idea ever made.

Well, I would think they would be able to at least give a review for the HW itself before Kinect launches.  Kinda agree on the unboxing vid, though.  But, maybe I'm looking at it in the wrong way.  I mean he obviously had enough fun just unpacking Kinect that regardless of how the HW and games turn out, he could still recommend people go out and buy it.
