You guessed it - someone had to do it. Phil Villarreal, writer for the Arizona Daily Star, Consumerist and OK! Magazine online has broken his LCD TV while playing Kinect. lol

Quote:

A public service announcement: Do not under any circumstances play Kinect Sports Volleyball at 1:30 a.m. while standing under a ceiling fan with a dangling chain for a light switch. You could conceivably spike it into your year-old amazing TV, causing it to die with a rainbow LCD teardrop dripping down from the impact wound.

Plus you'll lose the match by forfeit.

I was wondering what exactly broke it.. I guess he means the end piece.. ah, now that makes more sense, but, if the whole fan came down, now that's news.

Crap, I just realized where I am putting my kinect setup, there is a ceiling fan in the room. I just hope it is back enough and high enough...
