It would be nice for commanding armies, but I don't think it'd be useful to build them. Where would your hotkeys be?

Lol, what?

So you're blaming a controller for not working with a game designed for another controller?

You're the one who made the comparison with the kinect. The kinect is a thousand times better than for the games it was designed for.

It could be used with a keyboard to essentially just replace the mouse.

You do realise you're only insulting yourself, right? You made a comparison between the two and said that this control is both better and cheaper than the kinect, how come now you're saying it's obvious it isn't?

Right back at ya.

Comparing two controllers as a consumer of games is a very valid comparison.
Price and responsiveness being two big parts of what makes a product good or bad.

They serve completely different purposes. That's like comparing a mouse with a keyboard, it's not a valid comparison at all.

It's like comparing a mouse+keyboard to an Xbox360 controller.

No, because they serve different purposes while a mouse+keyboard and xbox controller are interchangeable. Some games will be better with one, some will be better with the other. When you're talking about kinect and this new sensor the games you make for one CANNOT be played with the other, they're simply UNPLAYABLE. It won't even work.

Let's get what I said straight.

I said that the Kinect sucked because it has big delays.
I said that the Leap Motion seemed promising because it has very little delay.

I said that the Leap Motion costs 30$ less than the Kinect.

I did not say that the Leap Motion would perform better than the Kinect in games made for the Kinect nor that it should replace the Kinect.

I compared 2 products, stating why I thought that one was bad and why the other had potential.
