    Comeon MS, really? Is this all we can expect from Kinect? Linear bollocks, with us waving like retards?

    Disgusting!

    Most likely it’ll initially sell very well (and then Kinect games and peripherals will be slowly relegated to bargain bin status), after all it’s a novel idea (controller-free gaming), but it still offers a very limited experience, because there’s really not much you can do with it. It’s either on-rail gaming, PS2 Eyetoy-type games or cutsey dance titles.

    But overall, I suspect that in the long run MS will either scrap Kinect or most likely throw in a wand controller, that or try to release a new console -the 720- before their competition can (and we’ll all climb on the hamster wheel again).
