Gamers from all around the planet are awaiting the Xbox 360 Kinect release date as though it were Christmas itself. Can you remember that almost unbearable feeling of excitement that continued to build until finally Christmas morning arrived? Well, that’s the way Xbox 360 fans are feeling about November 4, 2010.

That’s the day that the brand new, revolutionary Xbox 360 Kinect controller will be released and available to buy. Many afficionados are planning to camp out in front of big-box stores to get their hands on this new equipment. They’ll do the whole standing in line for hours, probably starting the night before, with their coolers of snacks and drinks, just so they can rush into the store the minute it opens its doors. And hope that they’re one of the lucky ones who gets their hands on a Kinect before the store runs out.

But the smart Kinect fans aren’t going to bother with all of that trouble or possible heartache. They’re the ones that are pre-ordering their new Xbox gaming controller online. Internet retailers have gotten smart and are offering to not just ship the Kinect on November 4, but by ordering it with the option of Release-Date Delivery, they’re going to have it in their customers’ hands on that date! Just think, you can be sitting at home and the doorbell rings and it’s your new Kinect. Or even better, you could be at work, and the box shows up for you to show it off to all your friends and co-workers.

As of this writing, it’s only 10 more days until the Xbox 360 Kinect release date. Be sure not to miss out on getting yours by pre-ordering it today.

Wow! The original price that had been planned for the Xbox 360 Kinect was $299. But the actual price is going to be only $149.99! A mere $150 for the amount of fun that this controller that is not a controller is going to bring is unbelievable.

People who are in the know have already pre-ordered their Kinect so they can be sure they have it on the release date of November 4.  Yep, that’s right, you can actually order the Kinect online and receive it on the release date. And now they’re even bundling the Kinect with a Kinect game called Kinect Adventures.

If you’re dying to try out the new Xbox 360 Kinect like I am, you’re gonna have a long wait. It’s not even gonna be available until November 4, 2010, which in the gaming/computer world is like eons away.

I don’t know why Microsoft has to tantalize us like this. For heaven’s sake, they had celebrities playing with Kinect at E3, why can’t we have it now? November is waaaaay too long to wait, but wait we must. Maybe it’ll be that much more exciting when I do actually get my grubby little hands on it for having to endure the agony of waiting.

The good news is that they are taking pre-orders, so maybe they’ll actually have enough of them when the time comes and it won’t be a matter of standing in line for days to (hopefully) be able to buy one at the store. No, I’ll be pre-ordering mine online because with Amazon, they have a cool service called Release-Date Delivery, which means I’ll actually get my Kinect ON the release date. How cool is that?
