Kinect Topic

So this is free free? Don't even need to pre order to get in on this free trial? If so, I'm definitely in!
 
Wow this is awesome! My kids are gonna love this! It looks beautiful,lots of vivid colors. You know Rare made this game it's obvious.
 
This hacking stuff is real out there. The stuff you see in games like Watch Dogs has its origin and the inspiration of its origin is real life. Don't you get it? "Watch Dogs" Accepted or not we are being watched. This is my opinion.
 
headline caught me off guard for a second, thought the full game was free. Either way this is still good, glad we get to do one event at least.
 
Had surmised there would be a demo of this at launch seeing as it's really the only Kinect-only game people are looking forward to at this point. The voice control in some games is nice but Kinect Fitness and Fighter Within look like the only other options with significant Kinect functionality and I think everybody expects Fighter Within to be terrible (hey, hope we are all wrong on that!). I'm looking forward to this...hope it has the full body scanning capability...my son will go ape sh*t for that.
 
This is fantastic news. I was bummed this wasn't coming at launch, but I looks like I'll still be able to get my Kinect Sports fix!!

Honestly cant tell wether this is high level trolling or not.... There is no way on earth a company could place a camera in your house that watches everything you do and sends it off to places. Maybe if there was something in the small print about it, however if not you could sue them for countless amounts. All because they watched you half naked playing games....
 
I don't get all the uproar around the Kinect, how many people are buying an xbox one?........anyone really think MS are gonna be bothered to spy on YOU (not aimed at the OP just in general).

Ludacris!

Yes, because MS wants to spy in order to alienate potential X1 purchasers. :p
 
If you felt the need for this, why wouldn't you just leave Kinect in the box?

Maybe he doesn't mind MS listening in on DAT SEXY TIME but he doesn't want it visible?
 
LOL@ people thinking MS or NSA will hack their Kinect

I'm thinking of buying it just for the mount. I have no where to put my Kinect since it wont' fit on top of my pc because of it being a flatscreen. I'm not sure how well Kinect will work while being under the tv.
 
I wont be hooking up the Kinect because I have no room for it on ma gaming desk.
 
The NSA office is going to be like twich.tv unless you buy this.

Serious business.
 
The X1 is approved for Germany..they have probably the strictest privacy laws on the planet..seriously people are concerned over nothing

Germany was actually very on edge and in strong disapproval of Xbox One making it to its market until Microsoft had finally cleaned up their PR mess and got the proper message out there. People were rightfully worried, but it's good now that they made a clean 180 and cleaned up their mess.

Or, and I admit this is wild speculation, there was never anything at all to the Kinect/privacy stuff other than a bunch of frothy turd lattes being whipped up by the usual suspects.

Oh yeah, pre-180 Germany was considering not allowing the X1 in, but post-180 is a different story, some people are just way too paranoid. It's alright to be a little cautious, but there is a point when it starts to get crazy

The keyword in what I said is "hacking" I don't have a problem with Kinect but I do with a malicious hacker
 
Try telling that to the thousands of victims around the world.

If people were even a quarter as concerned about privacy as they seem to be specifically only when discussing Kinect, they'd probably make the effort to set up their router to avoid these threats.
