Avatar Kinect. A chat room where your avatars can interact in one room via a PS Home interface. Oh, and the Kinect can read your facial expressions so that when your friend Sandra starts talking about her period you won't be able to hide your hatred and loathing for her and her vagina.

Why does this exist? I have no idea, but it does. The only thing I can think to do with this thing is to make simulated avatar sex videos and put it up on Pornhub.com. That's about it.

    Nothing like pretending to talk to your 'friends' while gesturing at your TV.

    Anyone else thinking about selling the 360 while it's still worth something?

    All jokes aside...I love the 360 but Kinect is gonna ruin it. Not to mention the idiots out there that still buy it. It's ridicules.

    Honestly if Skyrim is going to the PS3 (Why wouldn't it?) then I am seriously gonna consider jumping ship.

    As an Italian, I too love to talk with my hands. I feel this is a necessary feature that I have been without for far too long when chatting over Xbox Live. Thank you, Microsoft.

    The first 10 seconds of this my hand was raised ready to smash through my monitor. Dear god these advertisements are cringe worthy. Just ugh. I can't take it.

    I think the only thing stopping the avatar sex is that the avatars are unable to move their legs.

    Well.. i really dont know what to say though. It's something like PS home but it's a step up though. For some reason, i have a feeling that this is going to backfire. Just saying.

    This is just going to be like PS Home, it's gonna be a bust. I don't know why Sony and Microsoft would think that people would be so into interacting which each other with avatars :S . All I need is Sony to put some dam cross game chatting on PSN and I'm good.

    I am not ready. Seeing it as I don't even have a Kinect yet. Let alone a 360.

    God..Guess I was right about just jumping to PS3 this year. Yet another fucktarded feature for xbox and they still expect people to PAY a monthly/yearly subscription for this crap(Since I just KNOW that like most other features with Live, having a free account lets you do just about NOTHING related to online, including chatting.)?

    Count me out

    its soo stupid because wont this just make the video kinect thing useless???? I mean the only way I can imagine this being of any use it that it can be some sort of way to broadcast if you don't want to show your face? Like I see a lot of other gaming podcast on JTV where they are talking to their friends over XBL, but they aren't doing anything other than having the xbox dashboard be what the viewers are seeing.

    So... This will enable everyone to sit down and talk to each other as if they were on The View...

    ...Did I hear fake cheering and applause? Is it part of the package? What the hell?

    Is this meant to emulate PS Home, as in, you can explore and meet new people, or is it just used to talk to multiple people at once with Kinect...

    This... oh the gay...

    Man, I can picture it now, a sudden evolution of trolls and assholes on the 360...

    Well, at least it's just an extra feature all 360 users can just simply ignore.

    ... And I warned you guys I talked a lot.

    Seeing as you can "Obviously" stand up in this I sense that fake avatar fight scenes will appear on Youtube.

    Honestly, if I'm gonna chat with friends (I have PS3, full disclosure), I'm using a chat message or using the PSEye for web chat. I avoid Home and I don't really see the appeal of having virtual avatar talk shows. Hate to see all the youtube "talk shows" people try and make from this...
