Didn't get it either, will probably get it for christmas though. Most games have been getting mixed reviews. Dance Central has a metascore of 80-something, and Fighters Uncaged has a Meta score of 39 lol.

Might get it at income tax time. I plan on replacing my current 360 with one of the new ones. I might just get the Kinect Bundle, not sure yet.

I'm still waiting to see when there will be more Kinects to buy on the shelves at MSCompanyStore. I was actually thinking of getting Fighters Uncaged, but then I saw the trailer, and the Meta score, then I thought not.
Yessss, there's Kinectimal Limited Editions at Kent Station GS.

Mine worked great for Adventures, but when I tried Kinect Sports, I could not get it to go past the "Hit Y" for tuning or whatever it said. It's the very next screen past "raise hand over head to start" screen. I could not play the game. I had already used kinect on the other game and played with it in the dashboard where the voice commands work really well. Did anyone else have any trouble with Sports not working? Even going thru all three calibration tests (and passed with no problem) I couldn't get in to the game itself.

i really enjoy the kinect so far. i got the adventure game and the kinectimals. I am waiting for harry potter to come up because that seems like an awesome game to be the controller. I do have two questions if any one could answer it. With the kinect hub, i've been trying to get my xbox to open the disc tray but saying " open tray", it works with "play game", or " close tray". the second one is there a way to change anything on your hub, i want to get netflix on there so i just be lazy and talk to the tv to get my movies to play.

I did at 1st too. What I did is turned on my xbox controller (just guide button) then just stood in front of the Kinect and it said "raise hand overhead to get started" and works just fine. But I found out I have to always start the games by having my xbox controller turned on (its ok if they shut off later) Hope this helps

If I'm not mistaken, you have to say"Xbox, ....." to use voice commands. But you might want to look at the Kinect voice settings under system settings on the dash.

I'll give that a shot. I also noticed it wasn't tracking my feet at all. I'll have to move it out to the living room anyway so 2 can play. Thanks for the info.
