Microsoft Xbox 3360 Kinetic is Wonderful

The video game makers have done it again and this time they may have hit a home run out of the ballpark. Microsoft Xbox 360 developers developed a new ingenious way of playing video games. This is something that will revolution video game playing forever and maybe even lead video games into being something actually physically interactive. Taking an idea from the Nintendo Wii to get the gamer up off his rear end and actually be doing something the Xbox 360 Kinectic is a wireless controller set up where the gamer literally hops in and starts moving around. Maybe I'm tossing around the word "learn" a bit too liberally. The Kinect actually works, "because it's already learned how humans move thanks to Microsoft's (Prime Sense's) research intelligence is built into the box before I step in front of it." This research gives the game an actual flow and sense of how humans move around. This technology is right on time in a society where children are getting obese at an alarming rate. Anything to help solve a problem in a fun way like this is going to sell and going to sell big. It may not take the place of eating healthy and getting outside and playing but it is a step in the right direction. For the kids in this world who do not have the ability to get outside and play all the time the Kinetic will give them a route to participate in an online community and be physically active in doing so.

The best thing about Kinetic is that it isn't replacing the controller but only supplementing it so the gamers who love the traditional form of playing can still play with their controller they just now have to do other things such as head track, throw grenades, and give vocal commands with the kinetic. This is one of the best things any video game company has came up with in along time and I am thrilled to death on getting this setup. Nothing in this world is perfect and one of the problems with the kinetic is that as one would think their is a lag that is caused from playing. They haven't yet perfected actually millisecond for millisecond movement but they are doing everything that they can in achieving this. Even so with a few tenths or hundreths of a second delay I say that this is going to revolutionize the way we game forever. The ability that enables people to play this game along side others in the Xbox live community is going to make working out fun and something that almost every child is going to want to do.

Mark Wilson in talking about the kinetic experience, "My shirt is damp. I'm thirsty. Ironically, I haven't even tried Your Shape: Fitnessyet, Ubisoft's exercise game." The workout platform games if you have ever played them on the Wii are definitely no joke. They will get you a work out if you are doing them properly and make you lose some calories that you can see with the calorie tracker. The kinetic is going to be doing this in a whole new level. Instead of having a step pad or something to lean on left or right you actually get to move in anyway that you wish and get to see that on the television screen. It may not be everyone's dream but a lot of people want to be seen on the television and this gives them their chance. I cannot wait for this to come out and when I do be looking for a review on actually what I think about this wonderful attachment to the already outstanding Xbox 360.
