Buying the Kinect was a great, but foolish idea. I knew that it, like the Sony Move and Wii, would have a lot of shovelware.   Dance Central is awesome, and the Kinect entertains our nieces and nephews when family comes over.  

Dance Central has captivated my wife.  She plays it all the time, she is plays it for the exercise, and bragging rights.   “Who’s on top, and who’s on bottom now,” is something I’m getting used to her saying as she five stars Soulja Boy on hard.   This means I have a lot less time to play games (like New Vegas) or my PlayStation 3 since she is using the TV.  I guess this is good because I still have to study for the GRE, which I’m planning on taking in December.

Before the Kinect, my wife and I used the Xbox for mainly Netflix.  We would watch the show Bones together before she left for work and I hit the books.   Now she has discovered the world of the 360 and has figured out how to add movies and shows Netflix.   For not being a technologically savvy person she’s really pick it up quickly.  The downside is Netflix offering me “India Romantic Comedies” as a desired suggestion for my movies.   I miss the days of “Action 80s Titles” and “Dark Comedies.” C'est la vie.
