Be one of the first to buy the revolutionary Xbox 360 Kinect and get all the latest news and Kinect games
Kinect, previously known by its project code-name Natal, is the controller-free gaming and entertainment experience from Microsoft for the Xbox 360 and is now on a pre-release world tour; try Kinect at a mall near you. UK Gamers can try the Kinect experience at Covent Garden, London, Alton Towers, Chessington World of Adventures, London Zoo, The Thames Festival in London, and The Clothes Show at the NEC in Birmingham. I intend publishing a full list of venues soon.
Kinect has now launched in the US and launches in the UK on November 10, 2010 but with very limited supplies and a massive Xmas demand, pre-order now to avoid tears! GAME and Gamestation stores across the country will be opening for the customary midnight launch.
More than 300 GAME and GameStation stores will open across the UK and they will also be open at midnight on November 9, for the release of Call of Duty: Black Ops!
Kinect enables users to control and interact with the Xbox 360 without the need to touch a game controller, it is described as a natural user interface, using gestures, spoken commands, or presented objects and images. The interface will recognize your presence and you are able to interact with the video scene. Kinect tracks your full body movement in 3-D, and it responds to commands, directions, even a difference of emotion in your voice. Kinect is even clever enough to remember voices and faces!
