Microsoft Takes The Kinect Experience On The Road

We’ve heard a lot about the Kinect, but when it comes to a new technology like this, all of the videos in the world can’t do it justice. Until I have the chance to step in front of it and interact with a game, I’m going to remain a skeptic. I’m sure that I’m not the only one out there who feels the same way, and Microsoft knows this. That’s why they’re taking it on the road.

Starting next week and going through October, Microsoft is loading up a few buses with all the necessary equipment and hitting 32 stops all over the country. You’ll be able to wander up, get in front of a Kinect and check out Kinectimals, Kinect Sports, Kinect Joy Ride, Kinect Adventures and Dance Central. All of these before the device hits stores on November 4th. Check out the list of stops below:
