    We play our Kinect almost daily. Ive had several other game systems until this came out and this is the best by far. I love that it makes you stand on your feet and move with the Kinect. Great Family Game. No need for extra controllers if you play Kinect games. Yay..no added expense.

    Its great concept. However this product is unreliable and get over heats. I just bought yesterday. Lot of people are complaining on Internet on same issue. I called Microsoft support, they acknowledge the issues but have not documented anywhere on any website. They actually did not even give me in writing about this problem and they will support if this device fails due to over heating, which in fact is a problem, that they acknowledge.

    I was not sure if I wanted to purchase a WII or Xbox, after talking with an associate, I decided upon the Xbox. I was elated to find that amazon had a deal going, I purchased it through amazon withour hesitation. At the time, it was cheaper to get from amazon

    If youre like me, the 4GB model makes more sense to get than the 250GB because you know you will never even use half of that memory. However, you still have the option of using an external flash drive if you ever do need just a bit more memory. One major negative with getting the 4GB model is that youre only provided with standard definition cables so you will have to buy HD connections separately. Unfortunately, Microsoft charges $40 for it but there are alternatives here on Amazon and probably at electronic stores as well that are significantly cheaper. The new Xbox 360 is a welcomed update in terms of look and performance. I love the fact that its smaller, lighter and a lot quieter. One major plus with getting the 4GB model is that its a matte finish rather than a glossy coat that the 250GB model has. This is because the glossy coat is a fingerprint magnet. The all black controller is an improvement over the original black on grey 1 usually found in stores (looks tacky). Now onto Kinect. 1st of all, you need to have a lot of space because Kinect requires about 5ft of distance between you and it. Fortunately, you can get a wall mount and have it raised about 6ft; this can provide 1-2ft of extra space which is helpful if you want this in your bedroom. This bundle comes with Kinect Adventures just in case you dont have enough to buy an additional game. It takes full advantage of all the movements you will make with Kinect with several mini-games. You also save about $50 buying this bundle rather than buying the console and Kinect separately. All in all, if youre a light and casual gamer or someone interested in becoming one, I recommend this bundle.

    I got a great deal on the XBOX 360 4gb w/Kinect and am ordering a 320GB HDD separately. Having played Kinect Sports, I can say a few things about it and the XBox: 1. The Kinect has no controllers to hold and you have to put effort into your moves. As a result, Bowling is much more challenging than on a certain competitor, Volleyball was terribly exciting, and even Boxing was fun. Im going to buy the Sports II set next month, as some thought has gone into usability and physics - at least from where Im standing. And its not easy to cheat as this thing really does figure out your speed when throwing balls, hitting your boxing opponent, et cetera. (Probably by analyzing several readouts from the sensor within x period of time; the larger the number means the quicker the movement... the programming involved is incredible...) 2. If youre out of shape, dont get overzealous when playing. Dont injure yourself. And its easy to do, given how addicting Sports is. A friend, who compelled me to buy one, managed to injure herself by playing a dance game for too long. :( 3. Only official HDDs are supported; you cant plonk in any laptop drive and expect it to work. Oh well. 4. The 360, the Slim model, does seem to get very warm on use. Not blistering hot, but definitely very warm. Do keep this console in an open area, and consider a third party cooling mechanism (amazon.com sells them and I ordered one.) By keeping the 360 cool, it will run for years and be less likely to die from the red ring of death, or even when you attempted to fry and egg and the runny stuff got inside the vent grille and caused a short circuit. Yes, the system is programmed to shut down if it senses overheating, but if you want your product that was bought with hard-earned money to last a while, keeping it cool goes a long way. Even if you dont see mandatory shutdowns or red rings of death, keep in mind that electronics under hot temperatures will be more prone to locking up and requiring reboots over time. So its good to run these things as cool as possible at all times. 5. Many games save whats on the disc on the HDD, meaning better and faster performance, combined with longevity of the optical drive. If anything, the need to have the game disc installed when launching is tedious and adds to the risk of damaging the disc, but its minimal. Still, at least one can save disc content onto the console. Let the kids, kittens, and rabid dogs scratch up every part of the disc, just leave the innermost part where the identifier can still be read by the system. 6. 1080p looks pretty darn nice. Use HDMI if possible; the only built-in alternative is composite video (480i). Component video and other solutions might be possible with third party-add-ins, though. 7. If you have downstairs neighbors, invite them up for a party but do ask them not to throw things at the TV mistaking the XBox 360 as one of its competitors. And, lastly, 8. Dont use the internet to hack into the boxes of people who choose to play with no clothes on. Dont worry about me as I wear two parkas during each gaming session. Overall, Im impressed with this console and its capabilities, and it makes formidable competition. I would take off a point over a very basic cooling assembly, but thats where third parties come in to make authorized add-ons. Its definitely worth the investment.

    I bought this as a gift for my best friends kids for Christmas and they did tell me that I beat Santa by a pretty large margin. The look on their faces was enough to let me know I got them the right present. They absolutely love playing it and especially love the Kinect games.
