Thread: What's so special with Kinect?

Motion sensors don't require holding the controller as Wii does.
I think that's what makes it unique.

Anyone seen the new kinect game called ryse.... its the best kinect game IMO!

This?

Even though there is no controller required, the games are made for kids. It might look cool at first, but it gets boring real fast.

The most obvious thing is you can dance while drinking a soda. That makes it really great for soda addicts who like to play dance games and drink soda at the same time. I actually like the Kinect although it is not good for all games. I would also add with the Wii and the Kinect that the reality is a lot of gamers are pretty lazy. What we really want is a way to just barely move our finger or slightly nod our heads to make things happen.

Sure they like to show people up and dancing, but the reality is if most gamers did that they would probably need to be hospitalized.

Can you play fighting games on Kinect?

kinect has controller, but the controller is rather 'mixed' into reality, and having a new experience of gameplay with motioning

But is it better than wii ?

But Wii is also like that. What makes it special then?
