Samiam Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 DS9 and DS6 are asking for a XBox 360 for Christmas. We are considering it. We have the PS3, and that is used quite often. We had the Wii and that was used quite a bit, for about the first six months. Then it sat mostly unused for about 2 years, until we sold it to Gamestop. So contemplating the Kinect....is this just the XBox version of Wii? Do you have it? Does it get used much at your home if you've had it for a while? Worth it? Regret it?

klmama Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Ours isn't used as much as it was the first year, but the dc do still like it. It is used a lot more when the weather is very hot, very cold, or very wet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Running the race Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Ours has hardly been used at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosyl Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 My kids have used ours often over the last18 months. the kinect is more active because it uses the entire body. I consider it extremely worth it, it wears my oldest out like nothing else. this is the only game system we own, therefore it is appreciated. it they had options I doubt it would receive as mch use.

amy g. Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Nope. Not used at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oceanseve Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Mine are young enough that they enjoy it, we've been using ours for a year. If you have gamers then it's not worth it. Since they enjoy PS3 and not the wii, I'm going to guess you have gamers. Probably not worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawn in Ohio Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 We really enjoy it when there are larger groups of kids or adults at our house. It is a fun, social activity. But my kids rarely use the Kinect at any other time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandylubug Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 My girls that are 7 use it the most. They love Kinect adventures, Sonic the Hedgehodge game, kinectimals and fantastic pets.... My boys have tried other demos of kinect games, such as the star wars, etc... they just aren't into it as much as the girls... I suppose they are past it. I have used the Active game with the kinect and liked it pretty well. It doesn't replace running, though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
