If you're asking about the original XBox, you can plug it in, but it won't work.
If you're asking about the 360, then yes. The new 360 has a special Kinect port, but the older 360 doesn't, so you'll have to plug it into the a wall socket.
You plug your connect in to your Xbox 360 and then play the certified Xbox Kinect games.
No you have to plug the kinect into a PowerPoint and/or xbox depending which one you have.
The kinect is a Xbox 360 add-on. There are 2 ways to connect this device, depends on what console you have. For example, if you have a older model Xbox 360, you will need to plug the Kinect in with a power cable. With the Xbox 360 S, you can only plug this in with a USB.
Firstly, the kinect will work on all versions of the Xbox 360, they color does not mean anything. With the Xbox 360 white version, you need to plug the kinect into a power supply, this is because that version of the xbox wont power the kinect.
you can use kinect on any xbox 360 including and arcade but you need to plug in kinect to a mains plug not the xbox you only plug in kinect to the xbox 360 s because it has a plug for it so don't worry if you think you need to buy a new xbox 360 s for kinect you don't the only reason they brought out the xbox 360 s is like the PlayStation (Sony) make the ps3 slim it's just the same with the xbox 360 s it's just smaller with a built in hard drive and built in wireless other than that there is no difference.
no it uses a wall plug
No, you actually can use any XBOX 360 to use the Kinect. The only difference is that the new one has a powered usb port (i.e. you only need to plug the Kinect into the XBOX, and not the wall as well)
By plugging it into your Xbox, and if you don't have the Xbox slim, you also need to plug it into an electrical outlet.
Any version of the Xbox 360 will work with the Kinect, the only requirement is 175 mb of memory. If you are using an older Xbox 360 then you will also have to plug the Kinect into an outlet.
Look at the shape of the kinect cable plug. Then look at the back of the XBOX 360, you see the hole one marked with a red/orange line? that one
Any version of the Xbox 360 will work with the Kinect, the only requirement is 175 mb of memory. If you are using an older Xbox 360 then you will also have to plug the Kinect into an outlet.
Some games will have kinect compatibility which means you CAN use the kinect but its not needed.
