HOLY **** that looks cool

Mudgie likes it. That's a true sign right there. This thing will be popular. Mudgie hates everything! lol

Love the detailing. Right down to Threepio's exposed wiring (controller).

Looks awesome but I am still not sold on Kinect, hopefully the next round of Kinect games will fix that, I am glad they are pushing more action type stuff towards kinect but I want to see it work first.

I use my Kinect almost every night. I use the voice commands to play, ffw, rewind, pause and stop. I don't bother waving my hands to choose which show I want to watch, though. That'd take too long.

It's pretty neat, though. Select my movie, lay down the controller and then just watch my shows.

So does it just respond to the word stop alone or would it respond to something like "hey you stop that"? Cause mine would be stopping every couple minutes as I tell my kids to stop doing something during the movie. I do like the Kinect idea I just need to jump into it but I want it to work well with action/shooting games first.

So does it just respond to the word stop alone or would it respond to something like "hey you stop that"?

I'm pretty sure you have to say "Kinect" or "Xbox" first to give it a command.

"Kinect, make sandwich", however, does not work, much to PK's chagrin. lol

Yeah, you have to say "Xbox" first, and then the command word.

Ahh ok that makes sense, good to know.

I also have Yourself Fitness, and do the Tai Chi and even some of the Yoga. Since you have children though, I think they'd really like Kinect Adventures. My 17 year old who is dating a 21 year old woman thinks it's fun and plays it whenever he's over visiting. lol

yeah I am seriously thinking it will be our family christmas gift this year. I would think reviews of the star wars game would be out as well so that may be a pick up, love the star wars games.

Updated the original post to include the video from the 360 dash / Inside Xbox

I'll put it here, too, for all of you too lazy to scroll upwards. =p

The R2 360 has real R2 sounds when you boot it up and eject the tray. That was a nice touch!
