    Is XBOX Kinect any good??

    I just ordered one from the SBR Store - I couldn't figure out what else to do with my points.

    Are they actually any good? I figured even if i don't like it my girlfriend will play some of the stupid games I'm sure will be on there.

    I barely even play my XBOX anymore, but I thought it would be good drunken fun too.

    What games should I get?

    Its pretty fun, the dance game is always a good laugh and the sports one with volleyball is pretty good too

    I've heard nothing but good things. Plus it lets you control your tv like Minority Report.

    Very true.. All simple games that you get bored with after a few times played.. Only time mine gets turned on is when i have a few friends over drinking & their wives-girlfriends wanna play it.. Its good for a few laughs, but thats about it..

    I have a PS3 and an XBox. I prefer everything about the PS3 not the least of which is the noise (or lack thereof). My Xbox fan is LOUD.

    If you can't dance now, kinect will teach you. I'm talking modern moves girls will go crazy.

    all games lag on lcd/led/plasma
    i moved the xbox to a 10-year old sony 32" projection (analog has no lag)

    it's not high-def but at least there's no lag
    even after calibrating the lag, guitar hero and kinect games are almost unplayable on flat panels - so frustrating

    i friggin love it. its really intuitive for new technology available to the masses.

    for now, i have the game that came with it (kinect adventures) and just got ea sports active 2. the sports active is for when im lazy and don't go to the gym, so i have no excuse to not workout anymore

    make sure you have A LOT of space though, like at least 8 feet away from your tv and about 6 feet of clearance in terms of the width of your play space.

    games as of now are fairly simple, but big time developers have already signed on to make games with kinect compatibility. and they can be tiring, don't play kinect adventures drunk i can guarantee you will feel sick afterwards.

    Quite nice the Kinect. Causes a little addiction.
