i wouldnt get it for sixty. i think microsoft and sony are starting to reach for straws on this one. give up with the gimmicks and try to make some games that dont suck. i swear the last game i played more then sixty hours was oblivion. can i get a 20 hour single player game that doesent leave me feeling underwealmed please!
im starting to think my gaming career is almost over. i game as long as the games are worth the effort and it is getting harder and harder to shell out sixty bucks for crap 10 hr borefests. let alone some 160 dollar add on that has nothing really going for it. i havent seen one game that features this thing that made me say "wow". so until i see one the money stays in pocket.

In a good month I buy 3 games and games are $60 a pop here. So that price isn't that bad for me but I'm still waiting what games it comes with and stuff. Can't wait for tomorrow.
I can't even believe Microsoft thinks this is a good idea... The Wii has the motion market under their thumb, why would people switch to Microsoft if they want motion sensing?
Peripherals have a history of failure on every generation of console. I'm only slightly interested because of the Star Wars game. If it turns out to be an average game Kinect is a no go for me.
Sorry if I missed the memo, but where's the official word? I've heard these rumors before though... I think M$ would be putting the final nail in the coffin for the nata-- er I mean Kinetic if it were in fact $120...
I guessed it would be around the $100 mark...If it's bundled with something else I'd consider it. If it's just the camera, no thanks.
Of course me buying it still relys upon the software not being a joke...And what they've shown so far is, frankly, laughable.

Yeah, I've been reserving judgment until I see the games, and so far I'm definitely not spending over $100 to whack balls around and jump up and down on some stupid raft. I'm really starting to think this will be a big flop. The casuals have already bought a Wii and found they don't play it.... they're not going to drop even more money on a new console and new add-on that they won't play. The best thing M$ could have done was try to lure in the hardcores and hope that once they got it in the house, the casuals would want to try it. From what I've seen, it really does look like HD Wii. The Star Wars game sounds interesting, but I'm not dropping nearly $200 on one game and a... thing to play it on.
if there is a ton of good games then ill buy. if there is nothing that interests me ive got a 360 conntroller and a ps3 controller that can be used to play hundreds of good games already out. no need to be jumping around. i have a wii for that and its pretty much used once a year.
What I've seen so far most of the games are on the rails mini games or fitness games. It is producing and end product of game the exact same as what the eyetoy achieved last decade.
i'm considering getting it... my younger sister seemed very excited about the games showcased by Microsoft. So it'll be her Christmas present this year lol
You are the controller -Kinect provides a whole new way to play. It uses a sensor to track your body movement and recognize your face, even listen to your voice. If you know how to move your hands, shake your hips, or speak, you and your friends will be able to jump instantly into anyKinect experience.
Personalized play -Kinect provides an all new in-game experience in which the player's face and voice are amazingly recognized. Greet and speak to characters in the game, or just simply step into view of the sensor to log in.

It looks fun, i've got the money for it, I like to stay open minded, and the games showed at E3 look pretty neat, me and my friends will get it and enjoy it.
