The applications for 2 Kinects could be astounding, but I imagine that putting the two images together would not be easy. Once someone does it though, we will have true videos with depth. In other words, 3-D applications.
That is awesome news! I'm pretty sure they are pretty much just concerned about illegal use of their copy-righted material. I can't say is it would be possible to bootleg games with Kinec.
Fairly basic still, seems that something funky will happen if he tilts the end toward himself. However, there are probably plenty of shortcuts they could use to calculate this once they get all of the dimensional functions worked out. That should eliminate the lag we're seeing.
And here I though the game was called MotorSports! Knowing the name and what this game actually is, I'm not surprised at the score at all. Good review.
It probably won't be Alan Wake, although I'm not sure if they finished up the DLC on that one. Amazing game though! The story in the Max Payne games is also top notch; really looking forward to what they've got! Celebrate! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_aY7HZvFpQ&feature=channel
Yeah, some better games comes first in my opinion. And if you want to talk about features, how about something actually game related for our Gold subscriptions. I mean, whatever happened to that 1 Vs 100 thing; I thought the idea was a great one! Something that you can actually play and isn't a movie, etc. Sure, Netflix is nice, but if you still have to pay for it, where is the value there? Facebook and Twitter, what? I don't know. Zune Marketplace is a nice idea similar to Netflix, but again, what is my membership paying for? And that is about it, we can't even choose to browse the internet at all. It would be nice if we had a browser with flash support and DivX playback.
It is going to be tougher to make Kinect work where you don't have a very limited number of buttons and such. For now, I am just going to go watch Minority Report again
I must admit that it is good that console makers aren't trying to out-do one another by creating a new console every few years. The variety for the consumer is good too, but flooding the market with party games and sports/workout games is not the variety people are looking for in the long-term.

Re: Review: Dance Paradise (Xbox 360)
I had a feeling this wasn't going to turn out well...
Re: Review: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I (Xbox 360)
Second was definitely the best. This one is just disappointing.
Re: One Hacked Kinect has Amazing Results, But Two is Just Creepy

Re: Talking Point: Your Weird Kinect Game Ideas
lol Kinect Data Entry.

That is awesome news! I'm pretty sure they are pretty much just concerned about illegal use of their copy-righted material. I can't say is it would be possible to bootleg games with Kinec.
Re: Kinect Now Offering Augmented Reality Lightsaber Action

Re: Another Cool Kinect Hack Shows Object Tracking and More
Woot! Transformation matrices!
Re: Review: The Biggest Loser: Ultimate Workout (Xbox 360)
Haha, you're pretty busy!
Re: This Probably Isn't Quite Enough Space for Kinect
I think this kind of spells doom for Kinect in Japan. Or at least, those in such small apartments buildings.
Re: Kinect Joy Ride's Shameful Auto-Steering Secret Outed
That is quite disappointing really...

Re: You Have to See this 3D Video Taken by Kinect
It is really trippy how it was all live and not pre-recorded. I would like to see some practical applications without requiring multiple Kinects.
Re: Kinect Breaks the Million Units Barrier in Just 10 Days
It prints money until you start to see some funny shaped red lights flashing around it
Re: Review: Fighters Uncaged (Xbox 360)
Ouch! I also expected a lot better. Oh well...

Re: Kinect's Core Offering to Blast Off in 2011
I hope that these games are actually good. I am probably not the first one to say, "I will remain skeptical."
Re: Kinect Helps to Liberate Women, the Living Room Gatekeepers
I read the article just because I say the Ghostbusters. Colour me disappointed when it had little to do with the Ghostbusters.
Re: Review: Kinectimals (Xbox 360)
Really? I think they do look cute and cuddly. I probably would have loved this game when i was younger
Good review.
Re: Kinect on PC Offers Multi-Touch Inputs
It is going to be tougher to make Kinect work where you don't have a very limited number of buttons and such. For now, I am just going to go watch Minority Report again
Re: Sense Kinect Star Wars' Christmas Presents in 2011
I am a little skeptical; why hasn't this been done on the Wii yet anyway?
lol at Vader having asthma.
Re: Review: Kinect Adventures (Xbox 360)
Yeah, this didn`t look real great fro the outset.
Re: Get Your First Look at the Insides of a Kinect Sensor
It really is a pretty impressive piece of tech. Wowza!
Re: Make Your 360 Kinect-Ready with Today's Major Xbox Update
Why are we getting charged so much when all these extra features are extra? Update seems pretty nice; haven`t really checked it out much though.
Re: Don't Put Any Kinect Discs in Your Xbox Just Yet
Yeah, it isn't very hard to get games before their release. Kinect and its games are no exception lol
Re: New Fighters Uncaged Video is an Assault on Your Senses
That actually looks pretty good.
Re: Kinect is Better Than a New Console, says THQ
I must admit that it is good that console makers aren't trying to out-do one another by creating a new console every few years. The variety for the consumer is good too, but flooding the market with party games and sports/workout games is not the variety people are looking for in the long-term.
Re: You Can Sit Down to Play Kinect Thanks to Base Node Tweaking
Good news!!
Re: Here's the 17 Games Available for US Kinect Users in November
EA Sports Active 2 might be good, but I have a bad feeling about a lot of the others. I have a bad feeling about the line-up in general
Re: UK and US Amazon Both Sold Out of Kinect
So either Amazon understocked Kinect expecting a bad response or it has been selling amazingly well.
Re: Rare has Big, Big Plans for Kinect
Let's hope that they do more than make Wii Sports rip-offs.
You should change the No comments thing; makes it way too tempting to say First!
