Nothing really amazed me other than the 3DS. Kinect and Move aren't that amazing. 3D gaming is new, Kinect and Move aren't new in a concept sense :/

I know what you are saying but Microsoft and Sony can make such things work. The Nintendo Wii needs an update tbh!

The Kinect looks cool and so does the Move, be interesting what they are really like!

I'm really not in to this new motion capturey tech. I want to just sit down and play my games. The wii was stupid and this will be stupid.

i like the look and stuff of the new xbox, obsessed with the noise the disk drive makes when opening xD "Ping" athough it is a little pointless

But 3DS looks really good!

I am not a fan of kinect whatsoever. I can just about accept Move and the wii because you have something to hold so you can actually pretend you're swinging a sword or w/e, just pretending to swing one without anything in your hand feels very childish though.

And holding a little piece of plastic makes you feel like a true samurai? :)

I'm not a gamer at all, but I'm extremely glad that this sort of technology is making its way into the mainstream.
Kinect seems much more user friendly and functional. From the tiny bit I've read about Move, it sounds like it needs a lot of improvement before it can compete with Kinect.
Of course, until I use both of them I can't really comment, but Kinect seems to be the superior tech.

It seems likely to be more immersive than having nothing in your hand whatsoever :)

I agree Kinect seems to be the superior tech though, i just heard it has motors that follow you around the room if you move. Very cool. The eyetoy that goes with the PS move doesn't have that!

Face tracking you mean? Not to say anything bad, but webcams have had that for donkeys years

If you can scan items to use as a weapon, for example a stick for a sword, then that'll eliminate feeling stupid holding nothing.

But you still wouldn't get the feedback, sound or precision of the Wiimote, no?

when kinect transforms into that off gamer will it truly be worthwile.
