I remember using it when I got the 250GB drive from woot in November(?) of last year.

I started going through the music store, and it was obviously taking forever with all the content I have. I decided to check if I could just use it as a USB drive, and it worked like a charm.

I just used the transfer cable from the 120 gig drive to transfer everything from my 120 gig to the new 250 gig slim. You do also need the disc (as well as the cable). |

Netflix app is updated with Kinect support, per Major Nelson.
Ironically I saw the kids get the update as they were watching this morning before the bus and it didn't even occur to me that it may be that update. |

It's ironic that you're not paying attention to your kids now?

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
now?

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
according to reports, the kinect support for netflix sucks balls due to it being limited to "suggestions for you."

What were the kids watching?

NF's "Suggestions for Brent" are totally lame. |
re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
I agree piņata. I really enjoy Kinect and my family has had a blast with Sports, Adventures, and Dance Central. For Easter I got my daughter Kinectimals since she loved the demo.
But then it looks like nothing else is coming down the road. It is crazy that MSoft doesn't appear to be buying/bribing companies to just fill the pipeline with software for the device and make it a must-have item. |

Maybe they are waiting to wow us at E3?

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
Gunstringer will re-justify my purchase. And I can't wait to see something about Steel Battalion. But that's all I know I kinda care about. Actually, I have my Kinect disabled now because I can't stand to wait the 3 seconds it takes to initialize on startup. Too busy.

I want to see more on Gunstringer and Steel Battalion as well... but I worry SB is going to be dumb. I am also wanting a good workout game. I hate Sports Active 2. Maybe the UFC one will get good reviews. |
re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
Yeah, so far it's all about the Gunstringer and Child of Eden.
|
re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
I don't know why I still have my Kinect set up. I don't know why I didn't take the god-damned thing back to the store the day I bought it. Maybe one of those games will justify it. :shrug:
|
re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
I'm hoping Child of Eden wows me. I never got into Rez but I also played it way after the fact (when it hit XBLA actually) so maybe CoE will strike a chord with me if I play it in the correct generation. :lol:
How was the Kinect portion of that new Harry Potter game? Any fun? |
re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
I was initially disappointed with the Kinect integration on Netflix, but I did end up find it somewhat useful. The speech commands are nice since 99% of the things on there are long enough for the wireless control to shut off during playback, so it saves me from having to search for the controller if the room is dark and I just want to pause it for a minute.

^ I actually just picked up a 2nd xbox remote on clearance at Target for $14. The 15-minute shutdown of the controllers each 22-minute episode is quite annoying.

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
Shhh... can't you see I'm trying to justify Kinect?
|
re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
And can't you see I'm trying to talk you down from the ledge ;)

re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
Ugh just got my first red light and I'm sending it off to Microsoft. Still, it made it 3.5 years.
|
re: The official Xbox 360 thread - the console of choice on nuclear submarines
Is there anyway to disable Kinect connectivity with Netflix? It's a bit annoying having that floating hand on top of my movie.
