If you can afford one xbox for each child I think this would be the least of your worries!

Not really, you can pick up a second hand xbox for 40-60 notes nowadays... perhaps as the poster says they would have thought that it if you buy a xbox bundle that the kinect would be able to (connect) to another xbox without purchasing a second.. seems logical enough to me..:) and i'd agree thats another cash generator from mircosoft.

Nothing in the local one yesterday but so much of the gaming in my local sainsburies seems to be hit and miss rather than a planned stocking of stuff.

Amazon's stock now sold out. Many of Argos's now showing OOS too.
Be quick if you want one. It will only get harder.

I don't know how good it is and if you're trying to save money i don't recomend it at £30, just put it the underneath the Tv on the tv unit instead

They are not in stock until after the 22nd November though. Impossible to buy anywhere else too, I have looked today.

Got one yesterday in Argos £119.99 (used 2 x £5 off vouchers from a promo a couple of weks ago).

Also received a £10 off voucher.

Can't say I'm overly impressed tho. It works OK, like the Wii, but I personally prefer regular game control as I have more control over what happens.

Seems like these new fangled control methods require a sort of vague movement in a certain way to get the rquired response (if you know what I mean)/

Horses for courses as they say.

Might grow on me.

I have reserved one of these in Argos as I am planning on getting my son an XBOX for Xmas. He already has a wii. Will this be better than the wii? Or will it sit gathering dust?

Saint Nick - I really would not let the negative comments a couple of people have said put you off. It is amazing and so much better than the wii. We have the wii and all the kit and kabudal that goes with it along with 20 games and it will be going on ebay.

My girls love it, the on screen controls are easy to use and the voice control is amazing. Very impressed by dance central.

I was a bit sceptical when hubbie showed me the on-line demos and thought there was no way it would live up to the hype but it does:T
