This week we’ve got the Microsoft Xbox 360 Kinect and we thought we’d do a quick review on a couple of the titles we picked up. We’ve dug up some history on the Game Com Handheld, comment on some community feedback and hit the news:

More MMORPGS using the free to play model
Microsoft convinced Kinect will sell better than awesome
Sony hopes Nintendo’s 3DS does well
Microsoft Kinect Selling out

This week’s question of the week, have you ever caved into the peer pressure, press and “sold out” signs to pickup a piece of hardware, software or other device?
