The proof is all right here people. What is stopping this 5 year old kid who was innocently enjoying his new Kinect from going online on to his computer, stumbling across a website which is making a hacked 360 porn game, steal his mom's credit card, fill out all the proper information, burn game to disk, mod his xbox, then play the game.
If you are a parent who bought your kid the kinect, be sure to watch them at all times while they use it. Who knows what they might be doing! :/

Kinect is a camera and depth sensor-based peripheral for the Xbox 360 that allows users to interact with and play games using their whole bodies, rather than using a standard controller.
Kinect is giving 5 year olds easy access to porn
And how is a five year old going to know where to go to find this game, download it after finding some moeny he can use over the internet, burn it to a disc (how many of us even have discs laying around anymore?), find a tutorial on how to mod an Xbox and Kinect, then play the game?
Flawed conclusion is flawed. It's easier just to get onto Google and type in "porn" with safe search off. This Kinect thing? Far too much trouble for a quicky.
"If you notice it's only one hand so I figure the other one is busy," said Martin.Martin said he predicted this when he set up the system."The first thing that came to my mind was someone is going to come out with interactive porn," said Martin.Gramps has a bit too much time on his hands.
When I read shit like this - the first thing I think is this has to go through at least three or four sets of eyes before it can get published. One of those sets of eyes should know, "this isn't how this shit works." At the very least, someone should fact check. Glad to see I made the right decision not continuing to pursue journalism back when I was in college.
What the hell kind of five year old wants to look at porn or even understands what porn is enough to seek it out?

I don't know what is worse the moron who wrote this crap or you for linking it and giving it exposure which is basically what she wants,
lol I thought you were making a very uninformed and reactionary thread but it turns out it was just the usual Fox video game related news stories. No surprise there.

That is kind of my point, she may just be an affiliate for fox but i'm sure she was well aware of how that went down and as far as I know she can't be hurt by this like the other dumbass because she has nothing to lose unlike the idiot with the book, that said she can just delete emails, (unlike book reviews) i'm sure shes ready for whatever backlash comes and just did this just to stir up the BS.
" How many 5 year olds know what porn is and have the motivation to seek it out? In fact, no 5 year old knows what console mods are and how to access them. WTF. When I was 6 or 7, I might have googled "boobies". That's about it. I wasn't downloading naked Quake mods. "This. I don't think that a 5 year old could comprehend enough to look it up even if he knew what it was.
ya as soon as i saw the vids for project natal i knew that these problems wouldve been inevitable.... oh well i doubt things arent gonna be much different concerning the ps3 and possibly the wii
This whole article is just really poorly written. Why the fuck is every paragraph one sentance long?
Oh yeah, because otherwise it would be even more obvious just how tiny and insignificant this story is. "Our star reporter interviewed one family about a game which has already been condemned by the owner of the platform, has no confirmed date of release, and will very likely not be available for purchase on any legitimate channel, ever. But it's about sex and new technology and oh won't someone please think of the children!"

" @tobygw: The steps taken there is more then it takes for the same 5 year old to just go online and find porn in general, no Kinect needed. "
" awesome "im with you on this this is what kinect was made for and if they dont release shit like that for it it will fail. Porn means you sell more units.
Sign me up. This is laughable and something that would be great at parties. I don't see a problem with this game. As far as kids playing it, sure its gonna happen. Parents need to be supervising what there kids do. If the parent is letting there kids play this game, then the parent is obviously a retard and doesn't need to be having kids in the first place.

Nahh. This is just vegetables reporting fallacies to other vegetables that eat it up day after day. Don't worry about the article or anyone that's reading it because whoever is reading that and taking it seriously obviously doesn't have a brain.
Yeah, that's worse than the Playstation Pornable eh
"Yet we can, and should, point out innacuracies where they exist. Sure this will lead to some press on the issue but at the same time it's much better to respond to something than simply ignore it. Especially if we consider that everyone going to that article through this link knowns better, his actions aren't really generating any positive press for the issue. It seems like the viewpoint you espouse would have us ignore all false claims because to respond to them is to give them publicity.@tobygw said:
