MICROSOFT KINECT OFFICIALLY LAUNCHES

One of the hottest gaming accessories for the holiday season has officially launched today. The Kinect from Microsoft is a hands-free game controller that connects to the Xbox 360. The device allows users to use body gestures to interact with video games. Microsoft expects to sell 3 - 5 million units during the busy holiday shopping season, an increase from earlier estimates. If you plan on getting one this year, you might want to consider buying early as there may be a shortage as the holidays approach. [BGR]
