So has Microsoft actually said that the kinect will record 24/7?

[Mowgli]

But to me that sounds like it means while your playing a kinect game it will randomly take snapshots...... The way it's wondered how could you sitting down or a snap shot of u walking by help them with your game experience?

And if they are doing that why try and hide it? Seems like they would come out with some way of selling it to you some how, because we wil know 100% for sure oventually

Kinect talkin about *Hard Hitta, where are you* every 5 minutes.

Sounds like the kinect would be great as part of an alarm system.

Once I can get a simple "Yes it will"

Then... No we don't know for sure yet.... So why all the jokes? I don't get on other forums so this rumor must be all over

I grew up on ps1/2 ... Didn't have a 64 or GameCube. Well oventually got a 64 . I never owned an Xbox , but Xbox 360 I got over ps4.

I'm a casual gamer I like both for different reasons, mainly playing Xbox for a while I got used to the controller and don't care enough to switch.

But I will be getting the x1 or ps4 and all the things I see people bash 360 for dont matter to 80% of owners of a counsel . I never used kinect and ill use it as least as possible. So having the being mandatory is a dumb move...


But carry on making endless threads bashing "eachothers" systems while we all know Sony or MS are not looking out for us, they need to make bread nikkas. They already working on next gen consoles

the problem is this stupid product is all geared around the "living room"

reality is kids are in their room, with a headset on, and don't want to have to shout across the room at a mic. I don't want to hear the baby/dog/mom over the mic. does that POS even work in the dark? I don't want kinect. I just want a controller in my hand. why are you making people buy hardware they don't want? people are just gonna have that stupid thing facing the wrong way, with tape over the cam and mic(s), with all the shyt turned off in the options. I see no reason it has to be 'required'

Now that you mention it.. MS gonna be spying on people kids too if they have it their room. The pedophiles at MS gonna have a field day.

You may not but M$ does. What you want is not part of the equation.

Its been no secret they been trying to force that shyt down gamers throats for 3 years now. Whether you want it or not you're gonna use it and love it

There's truth in this exaggeration. They didn't force anything, you mad it was the fastest selling tech device EVER As a person who uses Kinect daily still I understand that you wouldn't understand how/why what was said at the reveal is a huge deal. Basically they fixed all the hiccups in the old tech. The hiccups would ruin the experience for those impatient types. I put my word/reputation on the line when I say that Kinect ONE will be the difference maker this Gen. Sony's me too camera will function like the old Kinect. Why you think they upgrading the RAM in the ps4 Then the bottlenecks come i to play. Im not making anything up here. two weeks til E3!!!

Kinect talkin about *Hard Hitta, where are you* every 5 minutes.

Most kinect family games have a feature that it ask you if you want it on or not (its not hidden in the settings) to take pictures. Then you have a different prompt ask if you want to upload the pictures to whatever website that game has setup or kinect.com. then you can share photos on facebook/etc. same social like features the ps4 conference was about nothing is automatic fir either console. well, not on microsofts side. They dont with xbox, they dont with bing. sony is the scroogle type but come to your own conclusions on that.

Now that you mention it.. MS gonna be spying on people kids too if they have it their room. The pedophiles at MS gonna have a field day.

Yeah that's what is gonna happen
If it did you'd never know or you getting paid in the millions from the lawsuit. If you ducking the feds then don't have your real name associated with your gamertag. Any real thug is already knows that. Nothing would be registered. Pphone, car, house. Fake thug's exposed, real recognizes real
