You seem to be a bit blind towards the Xbox 360 and its games. There are
already game[s] that are ready for Kinect. And these are not
just "hardcore" games that you may be thinking of. There are a lot of
games for the Xbox 360 that you might think would be on the PSIII or Wii.
And there are even games that use the Xbox Live Vision camera! Don't
expect stupid games like Call of Duty to use Kinect. There are many games
out there in the Xbox 360 world that would go quite well with Kinect.

On the MS website, there are 8 games being shown:

Dance Central - Party game
Kinectimals - Casual game
Kinect Sports - Party game
Kinect Joy Ride - Party/Casual game
Your Shape - Not really a 'Game', but if it was it would be casual.
Kinect Adventures - Party/Casual game
Zumba Fitness - Again, not really a 'Game'.
Sonic Freeriders - Borders on Party/Casual

I am aware there are going to be many more games, but I stand by what I said when I say that most 360 owners will not enjoy these kind of games. It's like trying to put Raving Rabbids on the PS3. Although I can still see that Freeriders game doing well, and possibly the Kinect Adventures.

There is not much technology in the device itself. I am guessing production cost is just around $50. It just makes me wonder how much R&D they put into the software side of it, and how they expect people to pay that much.

I was talking more about the actual APIs being released for it to developers.

The Kinect won't be successful if it doesn't have any good games for it. People that own XBoxes don't want to settle for the party and casual games that the Wii has, and I highly doubt any hardcore games will use the Kinect functionality any time soon.

Yes, they are serious. Better technology and more advanced technology
comes higher prices until time passes, causing the price to drop.

Indeed. It looks very fun to use.

Seems to me as if Microsoft is moving ahead with 'tanks and artillery.'

But it's too bad they have no rockets or shells.

Also, I am a little worried about the price for the Kinect... I mean, $150? Are they serious?

Though I would love to see how the software works on the Kinect, especially if they have been developing it for so long...

You gotta first consider the types and genres of games that frequent each console. quote]

You gotta first consider the types and genres of games that frequent each console. Also, look carefully at the specs...I don't believe they're nearly the same. Finally, I'd hold judgment about saying if "Sony and Microsoft master/refine innovations created by Nintendo".
