I am thinking about buying a Xbox 360 Kinect. Anyone have one? Thoughts?

    I have had one since launch and initially it was a LOT of fun. However, much like my Wii and Playstation Move, it is beginning to gather dust. This is mainly due to developers slowly releasing titles. The initial awe factor is great though, you just need to make sure that you have plenty of room for it to work optimally.

    I actually play my Move with Heavy Rain and Killzone 3 more than I use the Kinect.

    Kinect is interesting tech, but I only use mine occasionally. That said, I'll be using the hell out of it when Child Of Eden comes out. I do, however, use voice command in Netflix, Last.FM, etc., so Kinect isn't going completely unused. I'll be using it tomorrow in Kinect Sports to help get the Guiness record (but mostly to get the free avatar clothes).
    Equipment list:
    Onkyo TX-NR3010 9.2 AVR
    Emotiva XPA-3 amp
    Polk RTi70 mains, CSi40 center, RTi38 surrounds, RTi28 rears and heights
    SVS 20-39CS+ subwoofer powered by Crown XLS1500
    Oppo BDP-93 Blu-ray player
    DarbeeVision DVP5000 video processor
    Epson 8500UB 1080p projector
    Elite Screens Sable 120" CineWhite screen

    I'm debating the Move for the PS3, but am afraid I'll end up in the same boat as mutelight.

    I'd be as curious how many games you guys are playing with the Move, not just how often!

    have had it since debut... great for kids games and exercise games, not so much otherwise (yet). has potential, but, IMHO not worth it yet.

    Killzone 3 with Move and the Sharpshooter attachment is wicked awesome.
