We Have Kinect, Home Testing Begins

I possess this box. In this box was an Xbox 360 Kinect and games. Courtesy of Microsoft, Kotaku is now a gaming news outlet that can be the controller. We have Kinect. One is hooked up to my TV.

The Xbox 360 Kinect launches on November 4. As an agreement for getting the device early, we're able to run reviews of Kinect's launch games — Dance Central, Kinectimals, Your Shape Fitness Evolved, Joy Ride, etc. — at 12:01 am ET on Thursday, November 4 (9:01 pm PT on the 3rd). That's 10:01 pm MT, if you set your watches to the times that appear here on Kotaku posts.

You see my cat here with the Kinect box. Is that a sign of enthusiasm on her face? With her, it's always tough to tell. She'll help me play these games and do all the other things Kinect is supposed to revolutionize.
