@smoothy I love these statements with no explanation.

@ChuckBartowskiX You can be a 400 pounds hardcore top mw2 player, but you can't be hardcore if you are jumping around, getting your cardio up in a video game.

I can't feel hardcore enough jumping around and making my heart pump faster as I can with getting a sweet headshot in Modern Warfare 2.

How is it possible to be hardcore if you can't get absolute precision in your shots like when using an analog stick or mouse? There is a noticeable delay on kinect where your on screen actions are behind your off screen actions. So even if that delay is as little as .5 seconds, you can't be hardcore because it's quicker with a mouse or controller. That's one reason why you can't be hardcore. Another reason is, even though it's probably more challenging than your typical casual game, especially due to some backbreaking movement some games require, incorporating more than your hand and wrist to play a game isn't hardcore.

Thumbs up to you mate. Thumbs up for you.

Or non fanboys that arn't haters of anything different to what there use to. Never seen me in a system war thread.

Though I understand why people wouldn't like kinect before even trying it. I sorta don't like it because it tries to give me an excuse to move around more. I play WoW all day when not at work doing my office job, and I like it that way because I get to sit down all day. How dare kinect ask me to get up.... Jk.. Bout time I get up don't you say? I'm starting to look like that fat guy from that WoW episode of South Park.

I know the people they are targeting and I believe they could of done much better on these commercials to convince people they want this product and then some.  They need better writters and better actors. The "you are the controller" is fine, but everything else makes me want to smash the product to bits if I walked past a bus stop and found someone forgot to take it on the bus with them.

@Atsuidesu heh, meant *your* arms not *are* arms

With wii you don't even have to put your arm in front of you to shoot with the wii remote, you can just rest it on your lap while aiming with your wrist. With the balance board you just stand in place and sometimes bounce a little. I can't believe Microsoft is now forcing you to do what Nintendo failed to do.... make you use are arms... and even.. your whole body.

I'm glad the wii doesn't require you to move around so much like the commercials promised. Much more fun that way. The most fun I have is sitting around doing things, not moving around doing things. I sit around when I'm at work and I sit around when I'm off work. Kinect gives me more of an excuse to move around and that is something in which I don't care for.

You get it wrong once again.

Wow, so until you do that.. you're not hardcore?

I feel sorry for all the gamers out there that think they're hardcore.

look at that ill trooper... you get voted down to the max just for defending the iphone. wow.

I beat Ninja Gaiden for the xbox on the hardest difficulty. I think that justifies me as a hardcore gamer.

Besides you making assumptions on what kind of gamer I am is kinda silly.
