Well I was hitting up youtube and I stumbled upon this video.

This has gotten me excited as hell, especially since I'm a die hard Xbox360 fan and it's my favorite console.

Yeh, looks totally awesome! Although, it says no holding anything, but surely other people next to you would interfere??

I can't wait for this.
Microsoft has really upped the video game standards with this.
We'll probably be able to control video games with our minds within a few years...

Im going to laugh when thousands of people rush out and buy it on release, and it the camera equipment fries just like the xbox when it got released.

There's beta stuff that does that already.

This is stupid in my opinion. Who the hell wants to fake run, hold imaginary things, and look like a total douchebag while playing a video game?

WOW, i was watching the previews on the XBL dashboard, looks actually kind of fun - now i didn't catch this: do you need to buy an add on for this or what?

Well no shit you have to buy an add on for this. Do you expect your xbox to suddenly morph to include itself with a camera and all the software to play it?

All I can say is I hope its not like the eye toy where the camera is totally usless. You have to wave your hand like 30 times to do something. But other than that this looks FULLY SICK BRUZZ.

This isn't 2003

I'm so stoked for this! Can't wait!

I agree. I don't have an Xbox 360 and never plan on buying one, but even if I had one I wouldn't even want to use this.

Edit:
Also, I can see it already; people will end up punching/kicking their television because they will be so wrapped up in game that they won't realize them getting closer and closer and closer to the tv, just like with the Wii. They will probably end up adding some feature that has a number on the screen that tells how close you are to the tv, and when you get a certain distance to it it will alert you, or at least they should.

Edit2:
Lastly, the voice recognition will be shit, just like it is on Vista. It won't understand jack shit you're saying.

This is ridiculous lmao. Went way too far with this one. This is replacing real life things with digital things. Why would you want to jump around in front of your tv like a douchebag when you could be skateboarding for real? Seriously I'm scared people won't even leave their house in a few years because they'll be living online and in the digital world.

What's the last song in the video?

What if it's the middle of winter and like -20 degrees out? You going to go outside and skateboard then?

I'm trying to say that no video game can replace the real thing. It's never going to feel like you're actually on your board if you're jumping around in front of your T.V.

You're right, but it does give some experience for when you really want to skateboard and conditions make it absolutely impossible.
