BASED on recent coverage [1, 2], Microsoft's KINect is likely to become somewhat of a failure, maybe as much of a failure as KIN although that's hard to beat.
It looks like the initial version of Microsoft’s Kinect motion-sensing add-on for their Xbox 360 console isn’t going to be quite the device everyone had initially anticipated.
[...]
The original Kinect patent filed by Microsoft suggested that the device would be equipped with a 640Ãâ480 camera with the ability to understand American Sign Language. The final production model replaces a pricey hardware chip with a software solution which, in addition to saving Microsoft money, reduces the performance of the device.
The official press release for the PS3 edition includes the line: "The PlayStation 3 edition will include the full Mass Effect 2 game and hours of bonus content."
