Explain? I use Kinect a lot, my kids use it even more... £28 is a bargain

The primary reason I have one along with some others that I know is for Skype. The quality of the camera and being able to sit on your sofa and have a conversation with people the other side of the world in 1080p, with person tracking and great sound quality was worth the price of a webcam.

The extra games and such are all a bonus.

Just dance 2017 is out shortly and it always sells well, worked brilliantly on Xbox one. With VR coming you never know what they may do with Kinect to accompany it like the ps4 VR and the camera.

Eh? Do your eyes/ears work? MS got rid of the port as it takes up room and they needed to minimise it... Many people don't bother with Kinect, but many people do...

There are cheaper paper weights available. :smiley:

you would need to be very gullible to buy one of these

Given that the newly announced Xbox One Slim will not even have the port to plug one of these into (you have to buy an adaptor separately if you did want to plug one in), I would seriously weigh up if it was even worth £28 as Microsoft are definitely sending out a message they are done with Kinect.

They also mentioned their next console, Scorpio, at E3 too which is a bit odd since it will likely make most people who the One S was aimed at wait until next year for that. Not voted on the deal anyway as it's a decent price, but it is for an abandoned piece of hardware - not sure if there was ever anything good released for it.

standard price in cex ...

yea i like my kinect, got it in cex instore for £30... works really well, dont understand all the bad press

careful with this. mine from previous offer never gotbdelivered even if due to be done by UPS. as usual, never got an email response from Cex on where was the item. Got PayPal stepped in and got a refund. so, good deal but careful if buying online

Did I upset you somehow? If you can't see that removing the port from the Xbox they'll be selling from now on means that they are not expecting to sell many Kinects and therefore will not be even trying to sell the peripheral, then you are in some sort of strange denial. The port would likely have not made any difference to the slim other than making it cost a little more to manufacture. I honestly can't remember a game being released or promoted for it since that Fantasia game and I follow gaming news pretty closely.
