--------------------------

My Answers:

1. How would you rate the setup experience on a scale of one to ten (ten highest and best)?

The setup is very simple, I will say a 9.

2. Our of ten how would you rate the launch titles generally?

Generally 6.

3. What is your favourite game that utilises the Kinect?

Kinectimals and the dancing games seem to be the best other than Kinect Adventures.

4. Would you say it was worth the price you paid for it?

Based on the launch titles I will say no, only the future will tell I suppose.

5. What age range do you believe it suits most?

All ages really but I can imagine 3-18 years will enjoy it the most.

6. What games do you own for it?

Kinect Adventures, Kinectimals, Kinect Sports, Dance Central, Your Shape Fitness Evolved, Kinect Joyride and Fighters Uncaged.

7. How do you perceive the Kinects future to be?

I am uncertain, I believe if they release games that fully utilise the Kinects technology then it could be excellent, games like Kinectimals do this very well. I think if more popular games start being compatible then it could be a hit, I wouldnt mind seeing a plastic gun the Kinect can track and play an FPS with it, not sure if that would work as well as I would hope though and I cant imagine using your body to pretend youre holding one.

8. How many hours a week do you spend on Kinect currently?

It started off with a few hours and now I dont use it much at all. Maybe 30 mins a week.

9. What would get you using the Kinect more?

Better games, more choice of games, better utilising of the tech.

10. What do you feel the Kinect/games for Kinect is lacking?

I think the gameplay is the worst part of the Kinect games, there isnt any depth to them at all.

1. No, I don't think I will.

2. Not to raise another debate with Xbox vs. PS3, but the kinnect, although being an excelent concept has no real attractive titles. Xbox sales have gone up because of Kinnect, they need this.

3. Better titles, lower costs. I think even the Xbox requires an upgrade, in terms of graphics.
And the Kinnect should be able to track way more points.

4. Unless, they have plans on a real nice title, or a cool upgrade, it could be bad.

5. Not really.

6. At times, I think you are required to do a lot of things which don't need to be done, you have to constantly stand up for example. With the move, a short chair can be used I reckon.

7.No, if there is a really good game, it'd be all over the internet.

8. No, but I'd actually like to.

9. I've already got a PS3, I can't afford another system, and truth be told, I don't want to. So, the Move.

10. It hasn't flopped yet, as people believe better titles are on the way, as well as an upgraded hardware. We'll just have to wait and see.



@Micheal, have you tried out the move yet? It was epic.

1. Do you plan on purchasing the Kinect in the future?
No i don't think so,
if so maybe as a gift for my cousin.he own one.
2. If not, why dont you, if you do, then why do you?
i don't have xbox 360, i have PS3.
3. What would attract you to buy the Kinect more?
nice shape, no controllers.
4. How do you perceive the Kinects future?
maybe it could be better if they add more features.
5. Is there any games already out or coming out that makes you want to buy one?
I don't know i didn't check.
6. What does the Kinect/games lack that you feel it needs?
a lot of non required movement,
to be honest i will use when i want to some exercise.
7. Do you read about Kinect compatible games that are coming out?
no . not really.
8. Have you tried the Kinect at a friends/families house?
no, i don't think it's available in my country yet.
9. If you had to make a choice between a Wii, the Kinect with a 360 and the PS3 with Move, which one would you go for?
Of Course, PS3 with move because purchasing a new system is a waste of money
10. Do you believe the Kinect will flop or already has?
I have no idea.

we will see
wii × PS3 with move × Xbox 360 with Kinect
it's a very hard competition
but i am a bit into Kinect

1. Do you plan on purchasing the Kinect in the future?
Nope; don't have an Xbox.

2. If not, why dont you, if you do, then why do you?
I already have a Wii, and they are just starting to come out with legitimate games.

3. What would attract you to buy the Kinect more?
Honestly? A CoD where you use a rifle controller to do everything in-game.

4. How do you perceive the Kinects future?
I think it's going to go the way of the Playstation's Eye Toy.

5. Is there any games already out or coming out that makes you want to buy one?
None that I can't already get on the Wii.

6. What does the Kinect/games lack that you feel it needs?
A controller. I know the whole point is to eliminate the controller, but that defeats the purpose of the video game. Besides, I feel that less mistakes happen when I have a controller in my hand.

7. Do you read about Kinect compatible games that are coming out?
Nope.

8. Have you tried the Kinect at a friends/families house?
Not yet.

9. If you had to make a choice between a Wii, the Kinect with a 360 and the PS3 with Move, which one would you go for?
The Wii. The Wii has been out for 4+ years now, and I think it holds the motion-sensor technology championship. The others are just cheap knock offs trying to catch onto an increasing market.

10. Do you believe the Kinect will flop or already has?
It took the Wii 4 years before serious games started coming out. And because the Xbox 360 has been out for as long as it has, people are already used to one way of playing. There may be a spike in sales at first, but because of the few Kinect-compatible games out there, the sales will probably drop, and the Kinect will become a distant memory.

Dude, I have to disagree with you, the PlayStation Move is much more advanced than the wii, if you think I'm over exaggerating, read the reviews. And it's not a cheap knock off, neither is the Kinnect. The Wii's past it's prime. Move into the future mate.
