Looks amazing. Much more responsive than that Move

What always tickles me is Triple A's obsession with the Kinect even though none of us give a shit about it (or the move or the Wii for that matter).
What's a Natal
TripleA running on overdrive.

I think TripleA mistakenly titled the OP with his Daily Affirmation
Overall the device is nice, a little heavier than what I would have expected. As I mentioned in another thread I had to stand for every game but it isn't because of the technology, it's more because the games were designed that way. For example, Sports Champions' table tennis allows you to move in all directions to play the ball and is surprisingly effective. I will try and be more detailed about it in the description of the titles.Controlling the PS3 interface with the Move controller is really frustrating. Hold in the trigger and shake the stick to move in all directions... but it is waaaay too sensitive. I found myself giving up and reaching for the DS3. The web browser also does not create a virtual mouse which I thought would have been a nice touch.The input lag is noticeable with everything. Not so much that it is make or break, but it is noticeable. It's a little like playing online and mentally compensating for a specific lag while playing.
I also am really disappointed there is no consistent interface between games. Sports Champions will actively tell you when your controller is not in view of the PSEye, Tiger just makes wild assumptions. Some games ask you to calibrate by hitting the action button and pointing at the Eye, some the trigger, some the X button. You also must calibrate every controller between every different title.A lot of the games don't know what to call the main button yet either. It's weird to see it called different things across different titles.I don't understand the coloring of the sphere either. A little consistency would have gone a long way. Some games player 1 is green, some it's purple. The only true way to tell what controller you are holding is to hit the PS button on the wand as there are no led indicators on the wands themselves.
Thank god for PC gaming where your average player is too fat to waggle.
nice.one more step towards the death of forced motion bullshit in real games
This is going to be the worst Christmas ever
The only thing I like about Kinect is the Forza demo at E3. Everything else can suck it.
Civ 5 is going to make up for all this garbage.

This week's bombcast is pretty damning about kinect. Apparently, the thing needs like 10 feet of empty space (although they said 13) between you and the sensor to properly "see" your body. This pretty much excludes everyone below the uppermiddle class when it comes to living room arrangements.here's the quick lookhttp://www.giantbomb.com/quick-look-sonic-free-riders/17-3025/
