There are 10million kinects out there, did any of you seriously think they'd not spend a good chunk of the show talking about it and some of it's casual games? So far this is going how I expected it would.

No, I knew they would and I don't at all blame them for it. I'm just saying this isn't going to be popular for this audience at E3. Show more Halo, Ryse, Forza, and less kid demos. Because kids aren't your audience at E3.

I do think they are over doing it on the Kinect this and Kinect that, its being shoved and crammed into almost every game. Some games should be left alone as conventional others should have hints of it and some should only be kinect based. They can seriously alienate their core playerbase.

The kids were terrible at acting and acting is what they were doing, it would have been better if the kids part was not scripted and they acted like actual kids.

No sign of Halo 4 yet.

Kinect SDK now?

Let's see, 10 million of 55 million is 18%

They have dedicated at least 75% of the conference so far to Kinect.

So yeah, sorry I expected them to focus on things other then Kinect. :rolleyes: You know, like games, the things that got them to the position in the first place in order to sell Kinect.

Oh no, totally expected nothing but kinect at this e3. But one can dream they at least give us more conservative gamers something we want as well.

Exactly! They don't have new hardware coming out this year like Sony/Nintendo so they had to stretch out the presser some way since we've barely seen any games.

The input lag for star wars kinect is sooooooooooooo bad.

You realize that was a scripted video sequence right? Not real-time. Is there something I'm missing?

I understand why they want to show so much Kinect stuff as it is great for the casual crowd and is what they are really trying to get out there, but for an E3 Conference this is all a bit boring.

The ratio of Core to Casual watching, no doubt the Core is greatly outnumbering the Casuals so all this fluff most of us aren't interesting doesn't make for a good show.

Hopefully move on soon, "One last thing" Halo 4 LOLOLOLOL.

Well, the football demo for Kinect Sports 2 sealed the deal for me.

Worst e3 Conference ever by any company IMO.

Note, the IMO. I know it is not a popular opinion in these forums, but it is truly how I feel. That was god awful.
