Kinect is selling for £129.99 on play.co.uk and its not even out for another 3 months plus there seems to be a whole range of kinect 'games' that are as expensive as full 360 titles.

Joyride which was supposed to be a free arcade title is now also available as a wave your arms around in the air while I rob all the money from your wallet title.

Maybe I'm being a little hasty but mes thinking that kinect is only going to be good for 'waving' through the dashboard menus as the games that are due for release have a similar smell to all the family party games that you get on the Wii.

(You can move your head and the camera will move with you, improving fps... Er no)

It's too much. Should be 10 bucks. Anymore and I'll never buy it.

The argument in favor of the price point is that it comes bundled with a game and you don't need to purchase a controller for a second player, like you do with the wii or with Playstation Move.

From what I understand, the first wave of first party kinect titles are going to be priced at $50, which is ten bucks less than usual.

That being said, I have no interest in kinect at all.  It's not geared for "core" gamers like us.  It's for casual players who fear the controller, and for families and stuff.

All they need is a kinect drinking game and Wack will go fork over all his cash to get. I can see it now. It tracks whether or not you have a drink in your hand. And requires you to drink when certain images come up. $50 + the price of kinect, and Wack will be shitting his pants in over-joyous (drunken) euphoria.

Thank you Phare. If you hadn't fixed that, I'd've posted a lengthy paragraph bitching about idiots using that little phrase completely incorrectly.

Why are people so dumb that they don't understand what they're saying...? Sad

Understanding what one means and having it viewed in another perspective by somebody else is completely different.

Just a tip, I would work on my own grammar before bitching about someone else's


*On second thought, If Kinect were to go down in price and have some cool party games then maybe it'll be worth it.

I'll stay on whatever topic I want thanks. I'm a Grand Master. That means I have seniority here.

And grammar is one thing. Saying something that doesn't mean what you intend, has nothing to do with grammar.

Very well but I said what I HAD intended before it was assumed I used a "little phrase"

I think it makes you sound ignorant personally, but that's just me. I have to also say I know a lot of people who think that sounds ignorant.
