You don't need to explain why or why not, I just wanna know how many people are getting it.

EDIT: You know what, since you guys do wanna explain your reasons than go ahead, I personally think I'll get it just because it's something new and it's the holidays time, but I have one problem and it's that I don't have that much space in my room so I can move around.

You work for Microsoft? Have a stock in Kinect? Somehow profiting from Kinect?

Edit: Gamespot ate my spaces.

Knowing is half the battle. Seeing how many people might buy a product that is hardware determines how much software takes advantage of it which determines if it's a good buy or now.

You think he's a software developer? Maybe an investor in software developing?

No sir, but because you don't want any explanations to this then I'll just say no.

Maybe I will have to use it first and then I will wait until there are enough games that interest me before I buy it.

I have absolutely no interest in it right now, nor do I expect to suddenly get any. I'm not going to say "never", though.

Damn, so I guess I'll just have to move my TV in my room to a different angle, or basicly move my xbox to the living room which I don't think I'll do that.

the $150 price tag really makes me not wanna buy this peripheral.

i probably spend a lot more on games, but $150 for something i might not

use that often just holds me back. maybe when there's a deal or a price cut

i'll consider. next-gen system will probably be around by then though.

I want to but its already sold out everywhere even before launch. So the chances of getting it before X-mas are slim. When I see one though I'll pick it up.

I think Kinect has a lot of potential and at least is something remotely different from the Wii or PS Move. I don't expect the first batch of software to be overly convincing but I am sure by this time next year we shall be seeing a few games that are going to exploit the Kinect and really drive sales.

I will take the wait and see approach for now and maybe pick one up when it hits the $99 price point.

Possibly. It would definetly be fun but I don't think I would get a lot of solo play time out of it. It would be jsut like the Wii. Play it every once in a while.

What the Kinect is trying to do...Wii came up with it first. And they do it better. I didnt buy an Xbox to do stuff that dealt with motion detection. If I wanted that, I should have bought a Wii instead...

No.

I cant really use it because of space and lighting limitations.

Not ONE game at launch is of any interest to me.

Even if some "real" games come to Kinnect in the future, i still wont be able to re-arrange my living room and install proper lighting just to be able to use the thing.

Not worth the trouble.

The Kinect will either going to be huge! or it will be a dud.
