I am sceptical about both of them, the prices they are asking are a bit silly. I'd like to try Move, but out of the new bits of tech on the horizon neither Move or Kinect really set my world on fire. I'm not sure we'll get to see Move been played in store, I know when the Wii came out Nintendo had guys in my local branch of GAME on the Headrow that would let people play for so long before moving the queue along, and there have been a few stores that put wiimotes out on tethers, but I cannot see them doing the same for the Move controllers. I can't see Kinect doing that well either, whenever you play a game in the high street stores you always have a crowd of people behind you which I imagine would mess the motion detecting right up.
Kinect can handle just 2 in full body motion, but 4 if the actions are reduced, eg 4 players in a quiz game where you just put your hand up to answer.
Move supports 4 controllers, but only 2 controllers and 2 sub-controllers together. So again, "4 player support" when the actions are reduced to one hand, or 2 full players.
Just a thought, but how many Wii games support four simultaneous players and use the full range of Remote and Nunchuck controller options, e.g. not Mario Kart?
Now how many of them can't be played on a set of joypads?
Are we over analysing the "number of players" feature for Kinect and Move?
