The thing is, a remote or controller works 100% of the time. 90% accuracy just isn't good enough, especially for gaming. JMO. |

The main thing about kinect is that nobody is really developing for it. MS thought by making it a standard feature it would get the devs to do something with it. The problem is that they don't want to create two different games for both systems so they are essentially saying **** it. IMO kinect was doomed to fail from the start anyway. Plus I don't think anyone wants hands free gaming.

Most in the industry view it as kind of a gimmick.

Kinect was one of the reasons why I bought the X1; However, it obviously isn't what the gaming community wants. What they should have done is release the Xbone with specs similar to ps4, and then release the Kinect 3 years or so down the road. |

what they don't get is that people don't want to get off of their couch to play video games.

I think what you meant to say is people in the Xbox One target demographic don't want to get off the couch to play. Casual gamers like to get up and bowl. They also like to throw birds at boxes on a tablet. Most hardcore gamers still want to have a controller or mouse in their hands... |

I absolutely love the functionality the Kinnect provides me. Granted, I have less than zero interest in it as a supplement to gaming, but I love walking into the living room and saying "Xbox on" and having my tv, cable box, receiver, and xbox all start up. I love gaming away and when I do something cool I can just say "Xbox record that" without ever looking away from what I'm doing. I love sitting in a lobby between games and saying "Xbox watch tv" to catch a scoring update and then "Xbox go to (insert game title)" and I'm right back in the game.
Now is that worth $100? Yeah, probably not. Over the course of several years it might be, but regardless, I didn't pay a dime for mine so I'm not worried about it. |
