The Xbone

You mean re-skinned Halo?

No no, I mean Destiny

Sigh, let's just wait a few years to see if Kinect 2.0 really is pointless like you all seem to judge it as. Then you can call me stupid and dumb for thinking it's neat and has a ton of potential yet to be seen.

(See, I said in a few years because this site will probably be dead by then and I won't hear it ;D)

But if it is then we could be having the same conversation about Kinect 3.

Nah, cause Teekup will still hunt you down on facebook and bitch to you about your opinion. (Cause it happened)

I do feel its too early to judge though, i have a feeling devs will find a much better use for it than they have in the past.

Why not use the Kinect 2.0 to its fullest potential?: Spying on people.

Holy hell Allen, drop it already.

I'll probably end up getting the xbone, I would like to try out destiny and the new Halo.

Oh hey look, Kinect isn't useless and is already showing some cool potential. Sidenote, this game itself is like Little Big Planet on steroids.

Project Fucking Spark

"Microsoft just flaunted some of Project Spark's gaming powers at Gamescom 2013 in Cologne: motion and voice capture...Microsoft's Team Dakota group showed how to use facial capture, body motion capture and voice and sound to create animations, dialogue, cut scenes and more."

See the problem you're all having with Kinect is you're thinking it's gimmicky as you're imagining it being paired with reality simulator/photorealism/"hardcore" games, something it doesn't quite fit in with. Hopefully seeing it with a real game, something creative and genuinely fun, I pray you all can see that it does have a ton of potential. Definitely picking this game up whenever I buy an Xbox One.

The problem I have with Kinect is exactly that. Hardcore games are what are primarily played on consoles and here you have Microsoft shoving something that hardcore games don't really take advantage of down your throat. You must use it or you can't run our console. The hell kind of mindset is that? Not only does it drive the price of the console up, it's still just a gimmick because that's the type of games that are developed for it: gimmick games. Project Spark is pretty interesting, but the whole idea of it is a gimmick: build your own games purely through Kinect 2.0.
