[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 1390044, member: 7157"] Has anyone yet gotten the Kinect? Set it up and gotten it running? My roomie got it for me yesterday as an early Christmas present, and we put it together last night. It's a blast, especially when playing cooperative games like volleyball, or busting some moves to Dance Central (or whatever that's called). You just need to learn not to exaggerate your moves, otherwise you end up running into each other or the furniture. The dogs didn't know what to make of our antics, so they were clustered around us with worried looks on their faces. Messed up the signal from the sensor with their bodies and wagging tails :P I was wondering though; the response of some of the games to our movements seem somewhat delayed or abbreviated. Would wearing clothing that contrasts with the background help any (even though the signal is infrared, so that shouldn't matter), or are there firmware updates that would help? I haven't connected the XBox to the Net, nor am I eager to do so, but I could bring updates over on a thumb drive. Anything else you know or have heard that would work? [/QUOTE]
