[Closed] kinect or move ?

Define 'best'..

Move is like the Wii, but works properly. It can locate the controllers position and orientation accurately, which means it's good for 'augmented reality' style stuff - putting a sword or tennis racquet in your hand, and so on.

Kinect is completely different, technically very clever, but very analog and 'fuzzy'. Lends itself well to dancing games, fitness games and stuff like Kinectimals (which is ace). Not good for first person shooters, driving games (despite the early publicity) and so on. Oh, and you need a lot of space in your living room for it. It's something new and ambitious but may be ahead of it's time, and developers are still scratching their heads working out what to do with it.

For teh hardcore gamer? Move. For drunken party games? Kinect, probably, depending on what comes out.

It depends largely on whether you've got an Xbox or a PS3, I'd expect.

I've been following Kinect for a little while now (as a 360 owner). I know less about the Move other than it looks far too much like something out of Ann Summers for my liking.

So far, I've been completely underwhelmed with Kinect. Not because of the technology, that's [i]ace, [/i]but because of the crushingly disappointing launch title line-up. I can see it being awesome for, say, an FPS where you can actually duck behind cover and peep around corners; or perhaps a faux-3D environment where your perspective shifts as you move your head around. But instead they seem to be focusing on glorified Tamagotchi petting zoos, and games for preschoolers and the intellectually subnormal. (Ie, the Wii's current target audience.)

Both platforms have the capacity to be brilliant, but I'm not lining up to be an early adopter.
