Overall we love the Kinect. It's been a ton of fun and could even pass as exercise.
navigating the menu systems using the Kinect is a bit rough at times and has caused my youngest son to get quite frustrated. If available he uses the regular controller for menu navigation.
The Just Dance 3 game is a ton of fun. Although I could do without my wife taking video of me dancing and posting on facebook :)
Overall I would love it if the Kinect was a little more responsive, but it's fun and I would recommend.
What's great about it: Fun
What's not so great: picks up random object in room at times
