Forums - Gaming - okay its been like 3 months+ Does Kinect work

mchaza on 10 February 2011

i am curious because i was watching angry joe play dance masters. Other than being very funny to watch it seems that the kinect doesn't work so well. 

So now being 3 months+ down the road an many of you 360 fans who rushed out to buy the device can you be honest and tell if the thing works. We all know that not long after wii release we discovered that it hardly worked until motion plus. 

So anyone want to answer that? i am curious to know some opionions of gamers 



Of Course That's Just My Opinion, I Could Be Wrong

Kinect as seen by PS3 owners ...if you can pick at it   ...post it ... Did I mention the 360 was black and Shinny? Keeping Sigs obscure since 2007, Passed by the Sig police 5July10.

Yes the thing works. Kinect Sports works perfectly. Kinect Adventures requires a little extra space for Co-op gaming, dance central works .. ect ect.

Honestly if there is lag ... well you don't realise it when you're playing. It's never once hindered my playtime ..

Yes it works great for me. Just waiting on some games I want to come out

@Bolded: What? Wii worked fine and still does without motion plus. I don't see what you mean here

Kinect works fine.

The software made for it not... or at least the majority not... new releases could change that.

Even if you told me you had played Kinect, noone would believe you. Go play the SW and tell us that, you'll change your mind.

I played and liked just one game... Dance  Central... I didn't like Kinect Adventure... Kinect Sports isn't so good... and read the reviews of other games (not good too).

So which game do you recommend??? I expect a better experience with Child of Eden, Star Wars Kinect and Dance Central 2.

Edit - That not only with the Kinect... Move lacks good software too.

I don't care if you like them or not, the thread is about how the games PLAY and they play well.

Must you try and ruin most Kinect threads?

Me? I almost don't comment on Kinect threads... are you confused?

And he is question opinions about Kinect... so why you can give your and I can't give you mine?

My opinion... Kinect play fine and good but the software (games) now is weak... the problems with Kinect is not hardware based just software is not on pair with it now.

AND THE THREAD IS ABOUT OPINIONS... READ THE OP AGAIN.
