Qdeathstar 1763 Report post Posted June 21, 2013 I don't know why everyone is complaining about Kinect 2.0, I thought it was the ONLY good thing about XboxOne. Everything else XboxOne has, PS4 just does better. I wouldn't mind a PS4 that came with Kinect 2.0, I would pay the XboxOne price for that. But that's just me. Have you ever actually use the kinect? First of all, motion recognition is spotty at best. Also the voice control is harder to use than just pressing buttons on the controller, and I can't use the chat function because I have a large tv and a nice sound system so the center Channel feeds back into other people's sound.. The kinect is good for when you have parties and want something to pass the time, but it's not worth 100 dollars to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Barrybran 851 Report post Posted June 22, 2013 Can't you just turn the Kinect around when you're not using it? If Kinect is anything more than basically a motion sensing device and webcam and video is saved to servers somewhere it should be banned worldwide. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Massacre 7646 Report post Posted June 22, 2013 Does it work if you're wearing a gas mask? That might make my decision for me. I don't want to deal with my Xbox telling me I have no face. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What is Microsoft going to do about other player's mics when playing multiplayer.

Ouroboros 22 Report post Posted August 12, 2013 wait until it is out. i am sure things will be changing, like they have already. i wouldn't worry about it too much as it is still a few months away. A LOT can happen in a few months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlackSox9 448 Report post Posted August 13, 2013 The Xbox One no longer requires a Kinect in order to function. ~ http://www.ign.com/a...ect-to-function Yet Microsoft is still making it a mandatory purchase, by not having an alternative X1 bundle which doesn't include a Kinect 2.0 My opinion of the Kinect is that it's a gimmicky piece of over-priced crap that is not needed. It won't improve the way we play games, and it isn't really needed when controlling the console interface ( because pushing a button on a controller is a lot faster and easier/ and it doesn't have you talking to the TV like a bloody moron ). And don't get me started on the spyware side of it, after the PRISM scandal and Microsoft's involvement, as well as their new Data Collection Centre. I want nothing to do with this Kinect Crap, or it secretly uploading information ( video & audio ) and storing it on Microsoft's servers just waiting for the NSA or whoever to use a back door and gain access to the information. Yet they still force this crap down your throat if you want to buy an Xbox One. I think I'll be sticking with my PS3, PS4 and PC for this generation of gaming... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
