Its Kinect controller, a sophisticated camera that lets players control onscreen characters simply by moving their bodies, seems to be a huge hit. It had many debates with the Sony Move, and the famous Wii. The Kinect sold more then 5 million units in the first couple of months.


Social Network-
Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer said: "Your Xbox is becoming the hub of your living room. Its a gaming system, its a movie system and a TV experience. Kinect now even has Netflix which increases the sales by a lot. It has been already discussed that the avatar Kinect is a neat thing to have. Imagine siting in a room with people all over the world and noticing every movement, sound, and facial movement. Microsoft has also partnered with ESPN to allow users to watch games through its Xbox. This will allow users to connect with friends and fantasy-league competitors, to place bets and have fun with each other on the Kinect.

More practical uses

It had many debates with the Sony Move, and the famous Wii. The Kinect sold more then 5 million units in the first couple of months. A radiologist and a scientist at the University of Bern in Switzerland were able to hack a Kinect so they could use gestures to manipulate a medical picture archiving and communication system known as PACS. They would use there hands to find the data from the PACS. The Scientists have created a program to understand voices and movements. This has already proved that the Kinect is more then a system, its your base of your home!

Mhm, I as well love the production of the Kinect. It was a huge addition to xBox's contents. I'm positive too that a lot of people agree on the fact that the Kinect does top the PS Move and Wii.

I've also heard that Microsoft is working on making Kinect Avatar or something like that. It's just like PS Home, though using the Kinect to display your actions.
