  2. @Safely: I never said it was good advice. Do you use your Kinect to play games on your Xbox One? :p

    ...and don't worry, I know where you're coming from because I have a responsibility to watch over kids every single day (despite not being a parent myself). I'm just saying that it can be a good idea if done responsibly. If you have kids, then it's probably
    not a good idea for the reasons you've already stated.

    I do want to say though that if you're lifting the weights high enough to accidentally be let go and thrown at the TV, then you're probably doing something wrong (if you're "bowling with them" they shouldn't go much higher than your thighs, which means they
    won't get thrown very far, depending on the weight used, especially by someone like a small child).

  3. Nope, my Kinect is off 99.9% of the time. The thing is useless. I was looking forward to Kinect Sports Rivals, but after reading numerous reviews, and seeing how their already drowning us on day one DLC im gonna pass for now. Maybe when it hits $30. Until
    then im gonna save my cash for Mario Kart 8, and the PS4 version of Watch Dogs.

    Seriously, MS needs to ditch the Kinect and make it optional. I was a big fan of the original Kinect since it had a lot of great games, but this new one is useless unless your big into live streaming, Skype, or fitness games. The only reason MS forced it
    into a package deal was because they knew that it wouldn't sell well on its own. They were also likely getting some sort of bonus from the government for helping them spy on people. Where is Kinect Adventures 2? How about a new Gunstringer, or maybe another
    Kinect Disney?

    I would love to see the Scene It remade for the awesome X1 camera. We had a blast w the first one but the camera had its limitations. This could put us in a real movie scene. Seems like the X1 camera works more like a camera when 360 was more infrared.

  6. PhantasyStar's post is wrong in so many ways.... Although I still respect his opinion. Do you use your Kinect to play games on your Xbox One? ;)

    I'm surprised everyone is so worked up about the Kinect - I didn't hear any of this when the original

    Xbox camera
    first came out, and it was absolutely horrible.

    If they never put out another game for Kinect, its still worth every penny I paid just for the voice commands integration.

    I can't imagine voice commands not being a part of every gen going forward.

    1 day into playing Rivals and Kinect died. CS said 3-5 weeks for replacement.

  11. Galactic Geek, how exactly am I wrong? There also wasn't any complaints about the original XBox camera because it wasn't forced on people. If someone wants an XBox One, yet has no need or desire to get a Kinect, then why should they have to buy one? Its
    not like its needed to make the system work. I would have had them remove the Kinect from the package and give a decent sized hard drive, or cut the cost by at least $100. Heck, since the system isn't even as powerful as PS4, they could have cut it down to
    maybe $375-350. It would have easily put them ahead in sales.

    BF4 is one game that I would always have played with the Kinect because of the voice commands. However I don't own BF4 anymore.

    Do you use your Kinect to play games on your Xbox One?

    I'm my own man, no one guilt trips me into anything, I do as I please, including playing Kinect Star Wars with my children, I stated it was not for me, as in games for ME on MY console.

    I tend to go along this line. I have no issues with people who use the Kinect for exercise games and etc. but it's not for me and yes, I even tried a few games on the OG Kinect.

    For me it's a matter of getting the whole, or real, experience when it comes to exercise. If I want to ride a Jet-Ski I want to feel the water and spray... or if I want to ride
    a bike I want to actually pedal and end up somewhere other than my L/R for my effort (which will also require a lot more effort than pretending to do that in front of a camera).

    In any case, I think the whole 'it's exercise, it's good for you, you should try it approach to encourage a doubter to use their Kinect is fine' but leading it up to "it's your
    funeral" is a bit much. If I were to go along that line, I could say (as I alluded to earlier) that very few activities you perform in front of the Kinect are going involve as much effort or yield as much exercise as the actual activity does IRL. Following
    that logic, I could say that my riding a real bicycle over hill and valley would mean I could be present at 2 funerals... wait, that's just morbid and besides, then I'd have to go get a bike. >.<
