Kinect vs PlayStation Eye RGB video quality comparison

"YooStar 2 is the 1st game that I seen where we can get a direct comparison of the 2 RGB cameras & from the IGN videos Kinect's RGB camera is looking a little washed out compared to the PlayStation Eye, I'm not sure if it's the game or if PlayStation Eye seems to have the better picture quality of the two cameras"

[whateva]

seeing that it's just coming out at the end of 2010 & how much cameras has advanced over the years. I guess the PS-Eye was ahead of it's time when it come to webcams,

120fps @ 320x240 & 60fps @ 640x480

& it looks really good under good lighting for a $30 webcam that came out over 3 years ago.

[mrv321]

Kinect doesn't use the RGB camera for games so it wasn't needed for it to be of higher quality.

[jack who]

you cant reason with ppl on this site they just like comparing thing and dont care if there meant too work the same way.

kinect doesnt need a higher quality camera cause thats not wat it uses "alone" to track your movement

[Galvanise_]

It uses the RGB for Dance Central as all Kinect does there is silhouette tracking. The Eye can do that and Harmonix used the same technique on their PS2 Eyetoy games.

It doesn't use the depth camera while you dance.

[GWAVE]

Even though the software lineup for Kinect is (in my opinion) terrible, people shouldn't downplay Kinect's abilities. I've used the Eye with and without Move, and yeah, it's great. However, Kinect ain't shabby. Just because on paper it is 5.5% less this or that than the Eye doesn't really mean anything. It's the software that counts.

[livinwitbias]

@Galvanise_ - once again someone talking sh!t and don't know what they are talking about.

If half the people on this site were as smart as they think they are they would be somewhere spending the money they have made doing work rather than trying to explain technology that they really haven't a damn clue about.

@Whateva.....WHATEVA! I mean seriously if the PS3 was so great at picking things up, why do you need to have a glowing ball at the end of Move? I don't know the answer, but since there are so many rocket scientist on N4G perhaps someone can shed some light on the situation. (no pun intended)

Galvanise_ perhaps you can take this one, you seem to be a know-it-all.

@Bigpappy, Whateva already knew the specs, he's just being a troll because he's an advanced troll. But, you've been on N4G long enough to know that's it's pretty much pointless to even argue your point. No one has sensible debates around anymore, and if one did start, the fanboys would simply SPAM the hell out of it.

@Cliffbo, once again you don't own kinect nor have you used one. If you did, you would know that it doesn't require a well lit room. As a matter of fact, one of the first things the on screen instructions tell you is to close the blind to reduce bright light and glare. I have actually played kinect in the dark. Get one, evaluate it and return with a sensible argument and stop quoting BS you read on the internet.

[Theonik]

But it was also built for chat in mind and ignoring the possibility of augmented reality games seems rather silly when you price your peripheral at $150 and it's a feature your competitors have been offering for years. Hopefully the issue is just in the compression though and will be resolved.

[oohWii]

@Theonik

Blah Blah Blah, yet another talking head mockingbird set to the repeat position. yawn...so boring.

[rroded]

quality and ms are like americans and honest politics XD

seriously just like the 360; kinects a pos they overhyped

[HappyGaming]

In todays debate... which is better a fork or a chair?

[Koolno]

"WHATEVA! I mean seriously if the PS3 was so great at picking things up, why do you need to have a glowing ball at the end of Move? "

For perfect accuracy, even in the dark, with hardcore games...gamers know.

[Vaud-Villian]

Wheres the article comparing which is a darker and truer shade of black plastic, or which has the longer cord? or which uses less power?

Can't just stop at one useless comparison, come on!

[oohWii]

Yeah fool, but what about that same perfect accuracy in very well lit areas. Oops! Probably have read that one huh?

http://n4g.com/news/589789/...

http://ic-technews.com/game...

Another know it all just as he said.

[shadyiswin]

kinect works perfectly in the dark,it uses the IR sensor to work at night,it cant recognize your face in the dark but that doesn't matter seeing as you can just sign in like normal,but kinect works fine in perfect dark.

[RedDragan]

Gentlemen, gentlemen, GENTLEMEN!!! Let's just get straight to the point and stop bickering about things that are not important, because nobody cares about your reasons for this or that!

So bearing that in mind, which camera gives the best quality picture? We only care for one word answers here!

[Bigpappy]

Come on "whateva", we all know you knew that PS-eye has a higher resolution camera. Kinect is not built around RGB and hardly even needs light to work. I must say that was a weak attemp at gloating.

[ApocalypseShadow]

i think the point of all of this...

is that kinect does some things better.and PSeye does some things better.

kinect may do full body tracking because of a depth sensor.looks cool without you having to hold something.but lacks control options and speed.also lacks CURRENT 3D capability because of 360's lack of hdmi 1.3.

PSeye lacks a depth sensor but can be tracked by controllers in each hand that give more control options and accuracy in games.also allows deeper immersion in 3D because of hdmi 1.3 and has shown that the upper body can be tracked for avatars..
http://www.youtube.com/watc...

but voice control,head tracking,hand gesture,etc.,are all pretty much the same.because kinect's GAMES haven't really shown that much depth SENSING.software development seems to be the only difference.

so,whateva isn't gloating.just saying that for something that is supposed to change gaming and kill the controller,kinect sure doesn't seem all that NEXT GEN over something released 4 years ago.

[Bigpappy]

@Apocalypse: Man, some of you PS3 guys are nervous as heck. Why do you believe it is neccesary to read off all the PS3 specs to me. I am very aware of the specs, thank you.

I am sure whateva knows exactly what I said is true, and is probably reading your response and laughting his A$$ off. He was avoiding the stupid fanboy rant you decides to pick up and run with. You really are investing too much time into hating kinect.

[ApocalypseShadow]

if you believe i'm somehow nervous,you're kidding yourself.all i have seen is people like you go from liking and hyping games like halo,gears and alan wake...

to supporting and liking dancing games and getting licked by virtual cats.making excuses about your kids liking it or girlfriends.my girlfriend likes games like fatal frame,silent hill and DMC.besides casual games like DDR.

instead of 360,you guys have done a 180 because you got nothing to support.microsoft has no long list of studios,spends millions marketing but not using that on game engines or games.

WHO should be more nervous?people like you that are getting less and paying more for it?changing your view on core games because microsoft says kinect is core?

or gamers like me that support a company making games for gamers?spending money making games than on hype,and has a LONG list of developers and games coming from those developers?

would i be nervous as a GAMER on lack of ACCURACY? or happy because i get ACCURACY from an inexpensive camera that does almost all the expensive one does?and has developers that know the limits of that expensive camera over gamers like YOU....

[DaTruth]

He thinks you're nervous because he thinks you care about sales more than games like him!

I would be nervous if my console of choice that I invested money in was going casual, but I don't have to worry about that because I have like 10 core exclusives alone coming next year. And 360 selling more wouldn't change that either; Sony makes 2 sequels to games that don't sell just because whatever gamers bought it gave them positive feedback. It almost seems like Sony execs make games for themselves to play and don't care whether they sell or not, they just want to play great games themselves!

But whatever helps him sleep at night!

[Silly gameAr]

Well said A. Shadow.

Bigpappy is obviously a huge supporter of Kinect, but for all the wrong reasons. He's one of those types that think it's the next big thing because someone told him it was and anyone who disagrees, is a "nervous" fanboy.

Shadows right. If anyone should be nervous, it's people like you that bought into the hype. Just another hardcore gamer that's gone pop.

[strickers]

I love the fact that Bigpanties keeps ignoring facts to peddle his fanboy nonsense.I expect Kinect to perfom better in lower light though,it has a CMOS sensor.That is not covered in this article.
Kinect is a poor idea,the execution is about as good as it can be right now.The problem lies in controllerless gaming.
Say it was 100% accurate,more than Move(not likely but for arguments sake)it still has the same problems.........What do you play with it,it has no feedback and humans are tool users,we like to hold things.
It may sell better but many inferior things sell.It will never match Move for technical game quality.MS may but some exclusives that are good but most bar fitness/dancing will be better on Move,especially for proper gamers.

[whateva]

@ Bigpappy The RGB camera in Kinect is 640x480 the same as PS-Eye just a lower frame rate & I thought it would have a better lens being that it's newer, & what do I have to gloat about I love Kinect & PlayStation Eye / Move I like camera tech & like to see it advance & I'm waiting to see all the cool things that the devs can do with kinect's depth camera tech.

[TheDynamo]

Let's all remember:
Motion Control SUCKED. Until Move was released.
XBOX360 was the "Shooter Box". Until PS3 got more shooters than XBOX360.
Acheivements were a waste of time. Until Trophies.
No one should pay for Gaming. Until Playstation Plus.
Sales don't matter. Until GT5 sold millions (allegedly).

PS3 Fans are the HEIGHT OF HYPOCRISY. And they hate that they were WRONG about Kinect. It's an amazing system. Not to mention, it's KILLING the Move and leaving Playstation Fans with egg on their faces.

So next year, it's FINALLY supposed to be "The Year of the PS3". Right? After...

2006.
2007.
2008.
2009.
2010... ALL FELL SHORT IN ACHEIVING THAT FAUX PREDICTION.

If you'll excuse the XBOX360 Fanbase, we'll leave you with your THIRD PLACE opinions and get back to gaming and having fun. Online too.

I'd invite you, but you don't have a headset. :-)

Merry Christmas.

[DatNJDom81]

Wow bigpappy. Get that m$ c**K out ur mouth. Seriously bra, I think the continuous up and down motion has given u some serious brain damage. Your always defending m$. In your eyes, they never f***ed anyone over and do everything right. I prefer Sony over m$ any day of the week but even I realize when Sony messes up. You just find a way to always spin things. Are u a m$ employee/investor?

Dynamo just keep playing ur kinect games and ur exclusive. Also once bigpappy is done slobbering u can go ahead and join the party. Wear your headset and bring 60 bucks. Merry Christmas.

[shadyiswin]

TheDynamo <3

i love how so many people are talking about kinect was a bad idea as if this thing is not on pace to beat the 5 million by a few thousand,even i was shocked when they said 5 mill and it would of been more if they could keep them in stock. With these sales will come games and innovation so please stop acting like kinect is dead on arrival it has the most momentum of any for of entertainment including anything from apple,so wait till there games are all being marked down half off a la Move be we start jumping to the failure of kinect,which at 5 million sales in 2 months is hardly a failure....

[candystop]

LMAO...Good stuff TheDynamo! I swear these PS3 only guys are annoying and trying way to hard.

[ct03]

Yes, Dance Central uses silhouette tracking. But the silhouette is extracted from the depth data.

Turn off the lights in your room, and the game will still work.

[kinf-of-zon]

@ thedynamo
Don't act like the 360 community didn't hate on motion gaming,not every ps3 and 360 fan dislike motion gaming and you can't equate one person to everybody sense we all have different views, as for being a "shorter box"you didn't explain what that suppose to mean.I don't know to much on the two reward system to comment,ps plus is optional not forced and the reason they bring up sales regarding GT5 is because SOME 360 fans bring it up.

[candystop]

@Kinf-of-zon

yeah and the reason 360 fans bring it up is because thats all PS fans use to brag about even though Xbox was the better device.

"as for being a "shorter box"you didn't explain what that suppose to mean"

Where have you been? PS fans would always call out Xbox for having nothing but shooters because all the best shooters were on it. Now PS3 has more shooters and you dont see them complaining anymore.

"ps plus is optional not forced"

Xboxlive gold is also optional. Nobody ever said you had to buy it. Bluray was forced on people that wanted a PS3 at a more affordable price since you want to talk forced.

[BloodyNapkin]

@candystop

Yeah xbox live gold is only something you have to pay for if you want to play online.....ROFL. Get foreal son. Having more shooters as in what? Along with all they other great titles like GOW3, LBP, UC, HR, RC and GT5, it is one thing to have nothing but shooters it is another to have shooters and a whole slew of diverse exclusive games to go with it.

And last but not least. Blu-ray was put into the PS3 for pushing the advancement of great tech. Better for games and better for movies, so in turn better for consumer.

[candystop]

Bllody napkin,

The spin has my head hurting.

"Along with all they other great titles like GOW3, LBP, UC, HR, RC and GT5, it is one thing to have nothing but shooters it is another to have shooters and a whole slew of diverse exclusive games to go with it."

Gears, Alan Wake, Forza, Fable, Limbo, arcade, Kinect games, and indie are way more diverse then all of your sequels lmao.

"And last but not least. Blu-ray was put into the PS3 for pushing the advancement of great tech. Better for games and better for movies, so in turn better for consumer."

Advanced what? Get off that Bluray makes a difference BS already. Also who cares if you pay for Live just so long as you get a better experience then you do on PSn or Wii whatever its called. Grow up and quit defending SOny Hiphop napkin lol.

[PRHB HYBRiiD]

i thought the same but the quality of kinect its ....crappy in for the price :l.....btw i lold when king kong killed that chick xD

[Vherostar]

I am not one for sticking up for Kinect but who cares about this there?? Most people will buy Kinect for there involvement in games and if you seen the games unlike Eye Toy play you do'nt see yourself in game so cam quality isn't an issue here. It's probably why there are no games you see yourself in but really who cares as long as you have fun playing it?? Though I do want more cam chats in game we just dont get enough games anymore that allow you to see your opponents via cam when you blow em to bits. Seriously thougyh if you want a cam with decent video quality get an xbox vision camera its around the same as PS eye I heard.. You can pick them up now for like £10 ($14)

[ImmortalLegend]

The funny thing is that you guys argue on this site all day about stuff like this and most consumers don't even give a crap so it's pointless. You guys are arguing for absolutely nothing.

[ngecenk]

@galvanise

no you wrong, ps eye simply dont have depth recognition, once the rgb value of your moving body match another rgb color, the detection is messed up. thats why ps eye head tracking in the fight: light out is not that optimal to any condition.

kinect does not depend heavily on the rgb. it only needed to help the infra red to detect any movement. it defines which part of the picture is moving. so it does not have that much rgb power.

[Jazz4108]

Sonys great dr could say something positive about ms and you guys would still disagree. Its not if its triue or not it comes down to did it hurt sony and help ms. That kind of mentality is idiotic and irrational and will get you no where in life but a little circle jerk on n4g.

[BloodyNapkin]

I am just curious as to why the used bright colored clothes while testing Kinect but used black to use during playstation eye test. Seems a little odd to me.

[thebudgetgamer]

as a camera kinect is more impressive than the ps eye tech wise. i wrote before, i'm not sold on kinect as a gaming device (i know others feel differentially and i respect that) i am loving some of the hack that i have seen.

[Masterchef2007]

I agree with you on that. But for motion gaming i prefer to have something physical in my hands to interact with the game. And dont mention hybrid kinect games because so far they dont exist.

[thebudgetgamer]

yea, when it comes to gaming applications i would much rather have ps move. i just love the tech of hacking kinect for different purposes.

[strickers]

Totally agree,it's great on the PC with exciting tech demos BUT these are not any use for GAMES and that's what it's supposed to be about.

[Masterchef2007]

While the camera is of a higher quality than kinect. Kinect uses infrared technology so it doesnt need a camera of a higher quality since it uses the infrared dots to track.

[Ingram]

Infrared tracking is an exclusive feature, yes, but at a slightly lower fps capture @ less resolution it will have a hard time anyway with subtle head or hand movements, let alone fingers.

I don't know, I guess I'm a fanboy but the PSEYE has a wide array microphone with noise cancelation and depth is tracked with the move controller too.

I might be missing something but apart from hacks running in far superior PC hardware the software shows otherwise too, I think as a conclusion that a higher quality camera for kinect would've been a better idea...

[Masterchef2007]

I agree with you that the PSEye provides better image quality and sound quality than kinect. But Kinect as the 3d depth camera and infrared as a unique feature. 2 bad the camera is slow and the image isnt that sharp on it. I have move and you know what game i like best on it? Tumble. Its a game that for the first you can actually reach out and grab something pretty cool tech. I remember in the PS2 days when i received a PS2 demo disk with the eyetoy wand demo. They took that concept with move and they perfected it

[jizzyjones]

Kinect is easy profit for Ms (£130 and £34 to build) nothing more.

[allyc4t]

That 34 doesn't cover RnD or other costs. It's simply what the parts cost.

[ThatCanadianGuy]

I thought Kinect was revolutionary tho??

[zerox505]

kinect is the justin bieber of gaming

[thernztrom]

Wow! The ps3 camera quality is way much better than the Kinnect! :O
In the kinnect vid, the persons look abit blurry on the edges and some pixelation appear now and then.. ?
If its gonna be like this on release, the PS3-version is clearly the one to go for.

[HungryGoku]

I heard it's very cheap to make Kinect and they sell it for 150$ :/

[acere]

all the 360 fan girls are mad cuz the wasted 150$

[Gamer112]

You mean ps3 users are crying because the ps3 version of black ops ain't as good as the 360 version.

And ps move copied the wii.

[awesomeperson]

*Sigh*

What does black ops have to do with this article.

oh and Kinect coppied the eyetoy. UcwutIdidthar?

[Gamer112]

@awesomeperson

Tell me how does kinect copied eyetoy i would like to know.And if its coz you get to see yourself in a camera does that mean my web cam also copied the eye toy?

*waits for reply*

[Nivalis]

>>Tell me how does kinect copied eyetoy i would like to know.And if its coz you get to see yourself in a camera does that mean my web cam also copied the eye toy?

Controller-free gaming?

[SancLunatic]

I know how that feels. Shit I wasted $300 on buying my PS3.

[HungryGoku]

At least Ps3 is worth alot more then $300.

[ThanatosDMC]

I just got done dancing to Soulja Boy's Superman song on that dance game. Damn, i suck.

[EVILDEAD360]

LOL..that song is HARD!! I sucked at it too..

[SancLunatic]

I doubt I'll be getting PlayStations Wiimote. It's nothing new that's already been done on the Wii. The Kinect, I'll see how that goes down to see if I'll get it someday. I am kinda interested in Dance Central.

[HungryGoku]

You want go buy it but don't call the move a wiimote it's a kinect/wii it's both it has a remote and camera :)

Enjoy your dancing

[Garnett]

This sounds like a non biased website

forum.beyond3d.com

Thats totally not a PS fanboy website

[awesomeperson]

...

While if you looked at the pictures, its a bit hard to bias them too.

Or did they take the trouble to photoshop them to try make the Kinect look worse? /s

[GodofSackboy]

God damn I love your avatar!!

[awesomeperson]

OMG I love yours too :P

[younglj01]

Merry Christmas too everyone.

I just got finish seeing Kinect in action.My little cousin was playing a Sonic game.If what I just saw from Kinect is true then all I can say is Fuck you MicroSoft.What you are doing to your fans is completely fucked up but they cant see tha true because of all the fucking kinect ads.

Once I told them what PS3 and Move offer them they got pissed at me for not telling them that I own one.Hopefully some of you Xbox owners will open your ass and see that you is getting screwed daily.They have turned their backs on tha hardcore fans.

I dont even own a 360 but I was waiting too see Gears of War 3 at tha Spike TV awards.And when ya'll pulled it I knew then that ya'll dont care about your fans because alot of them is waiting on that game just like I was.But tha difference is I own a PS3 and they dont.

I'm so glad I learned my lesson from tha first XBOX.You is making billions of dollars off of Xbox Live but you cant give them more then 2 good games a year anymore.Whats going on is your hands too far into Activision ass too pull them out.

I hope in tha New Year you get your act together or alot of PS2 owners now 360 owners will return back to tha PlayStation family again.And I welcome all new PS3 owners with open arms. HAPPY HOLIDAYS 2 EVERY1 ;)

[EVILDEAD360]

'I just got finish seeing Kinect in action.My little cousin was playing a Sonic game.If what I just saw from Kinect is true then all I can say is Fuck you MicroSoft'

LOL @ your cousin playing one of the worst game on Kinect..

That's like your cousin buying Move and Kung-Fu rider.

The funny part about it..

Move: Kung-fu rider..Metacritic- 36! ouch

Kinect: Sonic Free riders..Metacritic - 48! still ouch

So as bad as Sonic on Kinect..Move has a worse game on Move

So if your cousin bought that game would you rant and rave on N4G.com and say 'F' Sony?

Nah..we know what it is..

360 owners are fine..Happy Holidays to EVERYONE

[younglj01]

lol If my cousin did buy Kung-Fu rider why would I come to N4g to rant.All I have to say come with me and I'll show you tha RIGHT move title to play.I cant say tha same thing with Kinect so if you think I'm a fanboy then that your opinion.

[EVILDEAD360]

'lol If my cousin did buy Kung-Fu rider why would I come to N4g to rant'

Exactly you just proved my point..why rant about how bad Kinect is and F.U. Micrsoft based on the worst Kinect game out there.

But you say you wouldnt rant about the PS3 based on the worst Move title out there if presented with the same situation. Do you see the hypocrisy there?

'All I have to say come with me and I'll show you tha RIGHT move title to play.I cant say tha same thing with Kinect so if you think I'm a fanboy then that your opinion.'

I honestly don't need you to show me the right Move title I own it and bought 5 games for it (2 were traded back in).
The truth is the best game came with the bundle..Sport Champions...period

The PSN titles have also carried the torch..but tSC is the best

You admit not knowing what to play for Kinect because you havent played any other titles for it. But, yet you rant about something you know nothing about.

You ain't the first or the last and it's ultimately your opinion..I just pointed out the double standard that MANY have round these parts..

Evil

[shadyiswin]

Actually if you youtube reviews of sonic riders a lot of people go into it thinking it will suck and end up liking it,apparently it has a learning curve same as joyride,but yeah if you got that kid a ps3 with move he'd be like "wtf i already have a wii" Microsoft has consistently put out at least 2 in house titles a year,this year we can say Fable 3 and halo reach,and i can say i enjoyed alan wake,crackdown 2,halo reach,kinect sports and kinect adventures for arguments sake. Next year will be gears 3 and don't think for a second there banking on one good game. Anyone can announce 20 titles and have no release dates microsoft alone will bring us 3 good games next year and beyond that im perfectly fine with multiplatform games,i still have a lot catching up to do its a wonderful thing cause now all the games i want are discounted,borderlands,dragon age,lost plant 2,really too much to name,but anyways no worries us 360 owners will be more than fine,there has and never will be a shortage of good games on the little box that could and has owned the HD gaming divsion :D

[jneul]

even though kung fu rider is a horrible game (shovelware imo) at least there is no lag on there which makes it completely unbearable like sonic riders!!
now go back to your rail games, kinect really does not match up to move when we an actually play hardcore games with our moves, now go away

[GeneGodHand]

The day before Christmas i went to my local gamestop and i swear to god everyone was at the Ps3 section and two no joke TWO guys where at the 360 section oh boy did it make me laugh.

Oh there was some at the Wii section but Ps3 had the most people and a couple of people taking turns playing Move Champions.

[Nivalis]

In this topic, xbox fanboys defending the crappy kinect and ps3 fanboys defending the crappy ps move.

If that's how you dudes wanna spend christmas day, i think you got bigger issues than who's fanboy crush is better.

[awi5951]

Ps3 fanboys lol that camara is only used for facial rec. The IR camara is the one that track movement. Thats why connect can be played in the dark. The only draw back to that is it cant see your face. The the games perform perfect even in a pitch black room it was tested and proven.

[s900mhz]

360 players enjoy Kinect
Ps3 players enjoy Move

Both support the gaming industry, You both win

[muzzy]

I beg to differ. While you support Move, you can expect your investment to return in first-party studios and their PS3 exclusives. While you support Kinect, you can expect MS to charge you more for online play, release more Kinect titles and no hardcore games in next 2 years. Just do the logic and math, no compassion or fanboyism required.

[s900mhz]

True, But don't expect others to agree! Logical thinking doesn't get you anywhere here XD

[Tony-A]

I can see that the Eye does a better job of giving you a clear picture, while Kinect does a better job of taking care of the "white outline" seen around the person.

Neither are perfect, but do a good enough job!

[rlm41]

Bad comparison, The Kinect is much better overall hardware and software wise. The software behind it and programming is one of the most important things and Sony Didn't have the money or software behind the Eye to make it highly successful.

[jneul]

lol eyetoy was sucessful the only reason why sony stopped was because they realised it was a gimmick and people prefered to have proper games with something physical to hold in their hands, i can't wait for ms to do the full 360 and add controller tracking, then all the fans will praise it anyway even though ms said "no controller" gaming was the future, no amount of money will make kinect work in a hardcore game properly unless you throw in a controller

[coolcal]

I just got a kinect for Christmas, and until you have one at home
And in front of your 50inch... You people can't tell me sh..t!!
Kinect is the future and even a blind man can see that!!! It's the
Begining of something big especially for the next generation of consoles! When
I wave my hand to control and browse the marketplace, it feels
Very very furturistic. Me my wife and kids along with friends of
are family,are just simply amazed! Sorry sony fan boys, hate all you
Want, Microsoft went outside the box, while Sony couldn't see past
The nintendos wii.

[GeneGodHand]

Shouldn't you be playing Dance Central listening to Cascada.

[Imalwaysright]

I will believe in what you said when a game like Ninja Gaiden can be played with kinect. Until then, to me kinect will always be a piece of shit.

[ReBurn]

People will argue about anything.

[Spenok]

Yep. Who knew huh?

[macalatus]

My fellow Sony gamers, Microsoft's Kinect is nothing more than but a moronic product hyped to near scam levels and used immoral advertising tactics aimed at exploiting the mentally inept so they could buy the product en masse. Any self-respecting 360 ding-dong will tell you that they are connoisseurs in the fine art of butt-screwery, and with people buying the laughable Kinect, it provides solid evidence that they really are!

Sony gamers know that high-quality games cannot be considered as such if it means people should act and look like embarrassing, mental asylum escapees. Kinect is just Microsoft's soft way of saying "we're done with hardcore games as we can't beat Sony in that area" so they're slyly targeting the casual audience, while slowly abandoning their so-called "hardcore audience". The 360 folks refuse to admit that there is really nothing for Microsoft to offer to them, save another horrible cheesy franchise called Gears of Bore..er, Gear. With that in mind, MS is quietly betraying them into thinking that the newest trend would be casual games; games that we know cannot stand to the caliber juggernauts such as LBP2, KZ3, UC3, Twisted Metal PS3 Reboot, and much, much more, with some of them having Move support.

Sony Gamers Lead the Way!

[zero_cool]

My two cents...

controllerless games just don't do it for me because i prefer a actual controller of some sort to play & immerse myself with games in more ways & i just don't see that happening without a physical controller of some sort.

[dragonelite]

The result show that kinect is better in this implementation.
Just open and dust off your eyes the ps eye screens show white outline while kinect ones are clean. The depth data although low res can reduce the time or speed up for processing the player outlines.

[laaakokaracha]

I couldnt care less about which one is better...who makes more profit...who is core and who is a flop...who is a fanboy and who is not...srew this shit!

I just want Xenoblade and The Last Story and Final Fantasy Versus.

Well... we should now be seeing the winding down of the hype in a week or two. When the reality of Kinect customers start getting frustrated with the lag and inaccuracy. First lot of Kinect reviews was clearly part of the 500m advertising campaign. Funny how every time a comment is made about Kinect how there is a lot of comments about how much the Kinect owners enjoys the dancing games. I mean - come on!!!

Am I the only one who decided not to buy Star Wars The Force Unleashed II because it does not have Move support? I mean - what a wasted opportunity - light saber fighting with the Move controller would be a winner.

I'm not sure about KINECT, never really looked into it.

But i bought my SON, MOVE,NAV,THE SHOOT.

And i've goto say, i was so impressed by the tech i'm ordering another move and buying a friend a move as well.

It handled great, worked very well in either lit or darker environment.

On the subject of games for it, i've only tested the casual games for it with my boy, The shoot was nice, Some demo's i tried as well worked good.

My son loves LBP, and SONY sent me a free LBP-MOVE DEMO. Works great, one player uses controller and the other uses MOVE.

Seriously anyone knocking the MOVE is a complete arse.

If you don't like SONY,MS. Fair enough. But don't knock tech until properly setup and used.

As any of my friends know i'm a pc user at heart, but PS3 has some very good tech and some very nice games worth playing.
