Probably the only reason I'll get one.]]>Jun 15th 2010 8:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/Jun 15th 2010 9:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/Jun 16th 2010 1:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/
Agreed. Despite the fact that the games thus far are too kiddy and casual oriented I'm still planning to buy two. Kinect is the most amazing technology I have ever seen in my life. Just the voice command and motion control UI is amazing enough to justify the price. I use my Xbox more for watching video and communication with friends than games anyway. I also have family members who struggle with the Xbox dashboard and controllers when they want to play games or watch movies. Kinect will make the Xbox a device they can finally use without having to call me to set it up for them.

I still can't believe what Kinect does is even possible. Just holding your hands out and pretending to drive actually steers a car with the precision of an actual steering wheel. Even a year later that is still mind blowing to me. My mind refuses to accept that technology is capable of doing this. Kinect feels like science fiction. It should not be possible. The last time I felt that way about a new technology was probably the microwave oven.

And lolface at the idea that we have a hub for a Microsoft product because we're Apple fanboys who hate Sony.

Controller-free input is the future, but Kinect seems half-baked.]]>Jun 15th 2010 8:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/It tracks skeletal structures and has depth perception, so the device itself seems capable of tracking rotation (taking multiple things into account), I think its more a matter of are there any games that take advantage of it yet and I don't think there are any. ]]>Jun 15th 2010 8:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/
Did you watch some of the E3 videos closely? Seems Kinect can even read your mind and perform your actions before you even make them, lol

There's more *cough* anomalies like this throughout the presentation :)]]>Jun 16th 2010 3:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/
I took a look at those so called "anomalies" and they are not. In the second one the car is going right and the guy playing has his left hand on top which means he is turning right. It is supposed to look like it’s backwards because the guy and the screen are facing different directions. So I would pay closer attention before I make those kinds of accusations.]]>Jun 16th 2010 6:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/
No, you are not. There isn't a question of direction and I never indicated as much. The wheel STARTS TURNING well BEFORE the human does. The first animation is plagued with an onscreen cursor that moves by itself well before the human follows suit.]]>Jun 16th 2010 3:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/

Fully compatible. Its just that this requires 2 cables to hook up (one for the power) instead of one for the new 360.]]>Jun 15th 2010 8:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/Jun 15th 2010 8:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/Jun 16th 2010 12:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/Jun 16th 2010 1:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/15/check-out-our-new-kinect-hub/Completely agree.
