anyone knows how much they buy the xbox one kinect for at gamestop?

I don't know about brick&mortar shops, but you may want to sell it online, the prices are actually quite high now that it's not manufactured any more (quick look at ebay shows second-hand cameras sold between $30 and $80. The USB adaptor is especially on demand, too.

This is one of the most unexpected necrobumps I've seen on GAF in quite some time. I actually expected it to be much much older considering the topic title.

Step 2 is throwing it away.

Toss it in the trash where it belongs.

Seriously guys, all your silly attempts at humor feel even older than the necrobump itself. "Throw it away it's shit. Har har I'm so original and on topic !".

I don't think anyone is trying to be funny, pretty sure everyone is serious.

It's even sadder if you're serious. What's the point of spitting your bile now, for hardware that's been out of production for several years ? Some guy asked an honest question 6 months ago about "vintage" stuff, and you find it relevant today to ignore the question but pile on said stuff ?

Kinect is really cool. I play one of those games it has, quite good, can't remember the name. Have fun with your new purchase.

Personally what I think was worth buying:

Dance Central - Excellent game, best of Kinect
Kinect Disneyland Adventures - Underrated and pretty good
Fantasia Music Evolved - Excellent game
Gunstringer - Fun game
Child of Eden - Excellent with or without Kinect, but best experienced with Kinect.
Fruit Ninja - This game was designed for swiping, works perfectly with Kinect.
Kinect Party - Fun with the kids
Yourshape Fitness Evolved - My favorite workout game
Just Dance 2014 - Not as accurate as Dance Central, but fun in parties.
Kinect Sports - Great game

Kind off off topic but a friend asked me if Skype still works on the 360. Anyone know?

I don't believe Skype was ever on 360 only X1.

Happy Action Theater by Double Fine (eventually updated and re-branded as Kinect Party) is by far the greatest interactive kids game ever made, and it's not even close.

This game was running 24/7 at my house for years and my wife still gripes about the lack of it on X1 to this day.

This^^

If you want to exercise, try your fitness evolved. Lost so much weight and really did get in great shape. I really miss that game.

The technology it contains is way better than its implementation.

I feel like there's a large part of the casual market Microsoft missed out on with the lack of fitness games and Dance Central.

Dance Central was always the go to game for people at parties. I know people love to shit on the Kinect, but Dance Central had absolutely insane widespread appeal.

Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor, Rise of Nightmares.

Play through Gunstringer, then pack it away.
Child of Eden is better on controller.
