Though I rarely say something positive on this subject, I might as well;

At least you don't have to dress up when using the Wii. Guess that's an advantage.

TAKE THAT HIPPIES!

in a more serious aspect, well i cant get serious in this, im laughing at how hard it is to make kinectic wor properly and how hard it will most probably fail!

i mean eyetoy tried to change gaming but there was little you can do with it, being a simple motion sensor.

even if kinect can detect and use our anathomy and apply it to game i cant never be a serious game or with multiplayer functions

imagine you playing an fps and your almost finishing the level, you take cover behind a wall to reload. in the mean time you need to scratch your back, and you do it like you normaly would. But OH OH! whats this i must have made the movement for grenade throwing? OH SHI-

and how in the hell would i pause the game? i now ill yell PAUSE! im sure there is nothing wrong with it besides looking like a crazy man...

sooner or later kinect will disapear like eyetoy and for the same reasons

ok ill guess i can play naked... oh right genitals must mess with the body detector...

Wow, that's unfortunate, as I usually wear pretty baggy clothing for gaming. I could understand it needing to keep track of you, but it should be able to do so regardless of what you're wearing, to some extent anyways. Kinect is seeing quite a few problems lately, it seems.

Natal (I refuse to call it by any other name, so don't fucking try and correct me) doesn't seem like it'll work, and I don't really want it to, because I'd rather not have all this motion sensitive bullshit catch on, unless it's a step in the direction of getting ST style holo rooms, but I doubt it.

Well, since I pretty much always wear skinnies, this shouldn't effect me. Since I also don't have a 360, and have no intention of getting one, this really wont effect me.

I wish Microsoft and Sony had left motion sensing games to the Wii, I just don't see the value in most games. The Wii is a fun thing to play with family and friends when not everyone is a real gamer, but at the end of the end I will never play a shooter on the Kinect or with the PS3 move. It's just not fun.

From a technical standpoint, this is really not at all surprising. The cameras are essentially looking for edges in a humanoid shape. When the shape is obscured, it's going to flake out.

Introducing the Kinect! It's an amazing piece of technology, only $150. Oh by the way, you can't wear baggy pants while using it, it's that advanced.

Alright.
Im completely fine with this, gives me an excuse... :p

& to all the people saying "OMG DIS GUNNA SUX0R CUZ I CANT WEAR WAT I WANT" Do you seriously not get how this product works? It does not magically know where all the limbs are on your body... Technology isnt magic fyi.

The Wii was laughed at when it came out but has become the best selling and most fun console imo on the market.
However the Kinect looks balls, it will flop hard, harder than the fat people from tiring themselves out trying to get it to register their joints through their flab.
Your comment ended differently than I expected.

I am going to guess that a lot of people are going to play Kinect pant-less, its faster than putting on a different pair of pants...
Even worse, people playing nude...

Anyway, this is a pretty bad sign for the Kinect, although there have been others, I think this could be the final nail in its pre-release coffin...
