For gamers everywhere, today is a banner day! November 4, 2010 is the day that the Xbox 360 Kinect controller was released to the public. And people have actually gotten a chance to try it out instead of just wishing they could. The overwhelming majority of reviews are positive.

It seems that Microsoft really has a hit on its hands. In fact, on Wednesday, Microsoft raised its sales forecast of the Kinect to 5 million units, up from 3 million. If that pans out, the company will sell perhaps $1 billion worth of Kinect systems and games by the end of the year.

Everybody’s so excited about it that both Oprah and Ellen gave an Xbox 360 and a Kinect bundle to their audiences.

The users of the Kinect, are loving how easy it is to set up. Initially, you have to teach the Kinect your body movements and voice, so you go through some exercises so it can learn your body and voice. Then you’re ready to play.

It turns out that the Xbox 360 Kinect, formerly named Project Natal, is just about everything it was hyped up to be. With its ability to recognize hand, body, and voice commands, it’s a definite glimpse into the future of how we will interact with computers. And in the meantime, it’s an incredible blast to play with!

Gamers from all around the planet are awaiting the Xbox 360 Kinect release date as though it were Christmas itself.

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!
