Pleased with Entire Order
Date:January 29, 2012
I was very pleased I could order this XBOX for TheSource.ca a few days after boxing day. I checked so many other websites and the XBOX deals were out of stock. This item was back ordered but I was happy to see that it shipped very quickly (within a couple of weeks, I believe...). The fact that I could track the shipping of the XBOX was GREAT. My kids received regular updates from me. I called the store the day it arrived (before the staff had a chance to call me). Even better that I did not have to pay additional shipping costs. Overall, pleased with the price, the availability of the XBOX, the option to track shipment, and convenience to pick it up at my nearby store. My kids were thrilled to receive their new year's gift...no problems with the XBOX at all.

This x-box kinect has been easy to set up and the kids enjoy. Amazing that it gets the kids active while playing a video game. All the moves, jumping, sliding and stepping is keeping my kids active in the comfort of our home. This isn't walking and playing outside but in conjunction with outside play they can play inside without becoming a couch potato.
Thanks,

The reason I purchased the Xbox 360 4GB Special Edition Kinect bundle was because my kids and I played it at my sisters house with her and her family. This is such a great way to spend quality time with the family and it also gives you a work out. Since I've purchased it, everytime my kids come over they want to go into my basement to play the Zbox 360 Kinect. We can even remain there and watch a dvd later. With the right choice in games, I think I may be able to shed a few pounds :)
I had the WII but the Xbox Kinect takes it to a whole new level.

Xbox Kinect are great for kids of all ages
Date:January 24, 2012
Product Highlights: Interactive & Fun
I bought this as a birthday gift for my husband. It's a great console to spend some quality time with our pre-schooler. We selected games that are age appropriate, like Disneyland Adventure and Once upon a Monster (Sesame Street).
The Kinect is also great for social gatherings, our nephew and neice (ages 7 and 8) had a blast and asked their parents for the console after leaving our house.
Overall, my husband was very happy about his birthday gift and can't wait to get more games. I was much happier about thesource.ca service for this order as it came quickly and well packaged.

Really good value!
Date:January 23, 2012
Product Highlights: Interactive & Fun, Easy to Setup, Design, Motion Sensory, Build Quality, Graphics, Features
For years I put off buying any current-generation home videogame console. Specifically I avoided the Xbox 360 for a long time, due to the continuing reports of overheating, Red Rings of Death, blah blah blah. But I knew from Web news that Microsoft kept trying to adjust design and manufacturing details to cut down on both price and heat buildup. And the Kinect module seemed really intriguing to me. So when the Boxing Week sales hit and this basic Slim bundle hit the E-flyers for $200, I decided it was time to ante up. Besides, I had had a lot of excess food over the holidays and it would be just good sense and good fun to exercise it off with a Kinect game. I should note that a major, competing electronics retailer was selling the same bundle, at the same price and at the same time, but since THEIR parking lot was just crazy, why not skip the frenzy? I decided to skip the extra protection plan since my personal rule is only to buy it when the product's replacement cost is $400+.
It's nice to have a wireless gamepad bundled in; that controller is solidly built. I didn't bother to unwrap the included "Kinect Adventures" game disc since my main goal was to play "Dance Central" 1 or 2. I later bought a 320 GB internal hard drive that plugged in very easily; Microsoft got that modular design down pat and foolproof. Navigating the Xbox's menus takes some getting used to. I suppose it's designed well enough to suit gamepad controls, but for this PC gamer it means a lot of menu page-shuffling and button-pressing to get where you need to go. The Kinect does offer voice command (via built-in microphone) and body motions for certain aspects of Xbox menus and sometimes in-game menus, but somehow I don't think it's quite refined enough to show off yet. Often I find myself calling "Xbox, Settings" to find that this simply won't work in a given context. Still, it's pretty neat to move around Dance Central's menus with moves evocative of "Minority Report." No, I don't think I'll be subscribing to Xbox Live, even if at $60 it only means $5 per month.
Nice that you get a wireless LAN adapter built in now. I was able to connect to my home network and stream AVI files without too much trouble. I'd like to be able to convert and view a greater variety of encodings; I believe Xbox choked on some DivX files... in this way, PC still rules.
Anyway, just a few gripes that don't really take away from the overall positive experience. (That is, if you don't count the advantages of the PlayStation 3, namely that Sony's online gamers' network doesn't cost money, and that the PS3 can play Blue-Ray movies. I don't know why Microsoft didn't just switch their optical drives over...) The Xbox 360 Slim console and Kinect module, together as a bundle for $199 before taxes, are a well-designed, attractive package that should prove enduring fun for the whole family. Heck, I can remember paying more than that for the original PlayStation around 1995 and an original SNES before that... Technology is great when it works!

It's an Xbox 360 so it really needs little review. What is remarkable is the Source's ability to provide the item on back order at the discounted price when all units have been sold out across Canada during box week. Thumbs up to you, the Source people. Fast and free delivery.

We were very pleased with the xbox 360 kinect bundle. The source online website is fantastic with excellent deals! The only disappointment was that the deal was so good ... the item went on backorder. The wait was diappointing but once I recieved the shipment email the service was super fast and we picked it up with no problems at all. I will continue to shop at The Source!!
Thank you

If you don't have Xbox buying one like this with the Kinect option is likely your best option. It will give you full span of the available games in options greater than just the standard controller. Lots of family fun here.

After researching extensively the different gaming systems offered I chose the X Box 360 Kinect because of the feedback from different sources. The family has thoroughly enjoyed playing the games and we are very satisfied with our new entertainment!
