I now just think that I got a messed up controller because I have two of the same edition controllers and have had none of these problems

I had no intentions of buying the Kinect and jumping around like a fool, normal controller worked just fine for me.

It's a lot of fun, but this is one of those places the controller seems to lag so the ball goes right "through" my outstretched hand

Because there's no controller its very difficult to "fake" playing these games.

I then thought that maybe the controller just needed to be broken in

I got a Xbox 360 with a 250GB hard drive, a kinect, Kinect Adventures, power chords, a controller, contoller charger chords, and they even threw in a couple chargeable battery packs for the controllers

i loved the X-box mostly because it made me move around and even if i lost my controller i could still play some games and at least if i didn't have those at least an fun app

I had no intentions of buying the Kinect and jumping around like a fool, normal controller worked just fine for me.

Now to be fair, I had only played wii at a friend's house 3 times, but being the controller is super cool

It was really simple to setup and no controllers makes it so much easier for our seven year old to play with the rest of the family.

Sent in hug box and ignored my note for volume weight to use small box as they can and came missing hand controllers and Kinect

Some leaned more towards the PS3 b/c the internet interactions are free versus having to pay membership to Xbox live.
