You HAD to mention the suit didn't you?!

As for Kinect, it's excellent IMO! And Kinect Star Wars is good, I'd rate it 8/10.

It's a pile of steaming turd. The only place Kinect gives a good add on game experience is something like Mass Effect 3 with the voice support. Motion controls are not sensitive enough to ever give a good game experience compared to a controller.

You only need look at the Metacritic average score across all gaming sites to see how bad it is.

The best Kinect games IMO are Kinect Sports and Kinect Sports Season 2, I am addicted to Bowling on Kinect Sports and Darts on Season 2.

If you're anything like me I would avoid the myriad of dancing games (and yes before the likes of Bonjon start I did buy the Chipmunks game, purely for the achievements), the fitness games are also good, better than Wii Fit on the Wii anyway IMO.

Go buy a plastic light sabre
Stand in living room
Flail about like a tool for 14.2 minutes
Get bored
Have a sit down with a cuppa
Feel smug you just saved £100

Kinect is really good....

I haven't really played any 'serious' games on it, more like the Kinect Sports and Sports 2, Kinect Joyride, and Kinectimals etc...

but I do love my Kinect
