Bring Kinect To Your Backyard

Dan Lee 24 Comments

Microsoft has announced the launch of a new Kinect based competition in the UK.  The ‘Kinect Comes To You’ competition will start at the end of September 2010, and to enter all you have to do is submit your reasons as to why Kinect should come to your local town, school, village, road or even backyard

The competition ends on 6th October 2010, and the three best entries will be chosen by the ‘Kinect Comes to You’ judging panel – Sophie Ellis Bextor; Microsoft UK & Ireland’s Director of Xbox and Entertainment, Stephen McGill; and Nick Burton, Executive Producer of Technology & Communications at Rare Studios.

Keep the suggestions clean – every time you swear, a fairy loses its wings!

  1. what the f**k has f**king Sophie Ellis-f**king-Bextor got to do with anything?

    • Anyway, will it actually work with outdoors lighting??

      • OUT DOORS?!?!
        are microsoft gone crazzy?

    • Sophie Ellis Bextor can do anything she wants as far as I’m concerned.

      • I’d like to come in her backyard!

      • It could so easily spiral out of control from here on in so I will just smile and chuckle quietly to myself. :-)

        *golf clap*

      • because I would like Sophie to play with my veiny bangstick, is that a good reason?

  2. Kinect’s first stop should really be back to the Microsost development labs where they can stick an on-board processor in it and make it function as originally advertised.

  3. I would like Kinect to come to Cardiff as it’s 80% Caucasian and will sell well, seeing as it had so much trouble with darker skin folk. Which explains why Sophie Ellis-Bextor is on the panel as I’m guessing she’s the only one who’s managed to get it working properly with her dayglo skin and money to have a big living room/lounge. :-)

  4. I’d like kinect to come to Bournemouth ……… cos we could do with a laugh! :-)

  5. I’d like Kinect to come to Cardiff as most Americans think Wales is in England so it’ll keep them busy whilst Move is selling bucketloads. :-p

    • Thought Americans say Wales is the origin of the dragon? lol

      • It is. She lives next door to me.

  6. They can come to my back yard.

    It’s where I keep the rubbish bins, so it’ll save me a walk.

  7. Surely Kinect cannot fit Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s infeasibly wide face?

    • >-Io *this is me on the floor dying with laughter*

  8. Come to Bristol, I have a lovely skip to place around 2000-2500 Kinects in, and a decent recycling centre 20 mins away that can make them into something useful…like,say, plastic coffee coasters

  9. Kinect should come to my front room so that I can compare it side by side to Move. Why I’m at it Nintendo are invited as well.

  10. ‘Bring Kinect to your back garden’ Why not? It’s where is belongs I suppose, In the shed, next to the rest of the crap that doesn’t work properly!
