Default Kinect

Is anyone getting this when it comes out in the UK on the 10th? What are your thoughts about it? Do you think it will be a better experience than say with the Wii? I have noticed many are already saying bad things about it before it is released over here, what do you think? Are there any games you would like to try out of the selection thats going to be available with it? Anyone from the USA already got it?

I've seen a review on it and apparently it is very well designed and the motion
body sensor is very accurate. I don't have a working 360 and I wouldn't go
out and buy one for this as I already have a wii and the target audience for
this new device is for people who enjoy family and party games which is not
my preferred genre of games. Although, if I already owned a 360 I'd probably
purchase it as I like to try everything

I'd like to have a go, but I think it will just be one of them things that you play for a week and then you never play it again. I don't want anything for Christsmas so I may just ask for this anyway.

We should be getting one tomorrow when its released here I know that the game types available arent something I would usually play myself but it should be fun and something different and I am sure Kerry will have plenty of fun with it as there are some dancing games out for it. The one I like the look of the most is this one:

If we really dont enjoy it or find it of any use then we will probably sell it to someone just before Christmas when they sell out in the shops. I will give a review of the Kinect and a few games tomorrow if it arrives fingers crossed.

That game looked epic! The only thing that'd get on my nerves is like, I'd hate to have to 'fight' with people watching me (my mum, brother...).

Have your ordered any games to come with it?

There is one with it, the Kinect Adventures, we will be getting three more by the end of this week hopefully. I will feel the same at first but I dont really care too much, the worst that can happen is having a nosy neighbour see my through a window

Quick update, we got it this morning and its working fine and weve had so much fun with it so far, I hope it lasts and they start bringing out even more games soon and maybe ones with more depth too, surely someone will get creative.

One thing about this, you play this, you leave all of your dignity at the door It takes pictures of you as you play and they are at the worst of moments ie when you look stupid the most.

Theyre rather good fun, weve had a lot of laughs so far from it and I am sure we will have many more. Its does get you off your backside when gaming which is a plus too. If youre a hardcore gamer you will probably not like it but if you have mates round often and family around then it should be good, another issue is space, if you have this in the average bedroom you will find you can only play one player mode, its best with about 8ft clear space for 2 players.

I'd only play it on my own, I'd play with mates online though. My room is tiny, I have around 1 meter space on my floor between my desk and bed. I don't think Kinect is good for me right now.
