Xbox live is launching a whole bunch of stuff this fall, live tv, youtube, bing, and whole new games and with kiject you will have a better experience. either way, xbox is beating the play station with its better online gaming experience.

The Kinect is a add-on for the Xbox 360 console, this means any Xbox 360 can play the Kinect.

The Wii Sensor Bar's wire is near impossible to repair. Even attempts to splice and reattach the wire has failed. The easiest thing to do would be to purchase a new sensor bar. They cost only $6.95 at the following website which is in the USA:

What is better a xbox Kinect or a Wii?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The Wii is actually better than the kinect because when you play games such as table tennis you are holding something that you could imagine is a table tennis racket but on the kinect you use your hands to imagine they are rackets. However in some ways kinect can be better because you dont have to hold anything.

If you would consider what is the control like the the wii is much better.
