Not the whole family, but I was racing my son on a Jet ski the other night... then climbing up a wall, then playing tennis and bowling. It's a great laugh and works well. Admittedly, it's a niche market, and not something that gets played as much as Lego Marvel, Skylanders & Forza in our house...
I bought Kinnect Rivals today. The kids love it! Climbing is a workout in itself and the rest are all a laugh too. Kinnect seems to work well with it too. Worth a go if you fancy something different.
Haha. Yeah, the 16 minutes was more for the family abroad. I should make a cut down version for public consumption really.
I have a chest mount and have used it on the bike. I ride a board pretty side on, which gives a less interesting perspective. I wanted to try it stuck on the board but...
I've just finished my first video. Editing photos and putting an album together is a lot simpler!!
I'm impressed with the video quality from the 3+ though! Pre compression they look great!

I bought a load of mounts from dx.com for peanuts. They took two weeks to arrive but are fine. I'm not sure I'd use a cheap suction mount on a car, but headstraps, chest harness etc can't really go wrong.
The GoPro will allow for no camera controls. The majority of the nice photos that you see have had some major PP done on them. I've not been that impressed with the images of the 3+ at all TBH.
If you aren't interested in video, I'd take the lens.
What are you all using for editing (on the PC)? The GoPro studio software seems to pixelate the video far too much on anything other than the very best settings. The raw footage is all clear and sharp, but as soon as it goes through editing it looks shite.
Piracy is probably the only reason TBH. I don't bother anymore as all the tweaks I used to use are now standard iOS functions.
I'd rather have a secure phone and stable and reliable updates than to skimp on a few £ for some apps.
I only had it a couple of weeks before it drove me mad with the freezes. I did quite a few vids and didn't notice any focus issues. I'll have a check with the new one this weekend.
My 3+ quality was okay, but it kept on freezing. I've just got it back after their repair/ replacement (with a bonus free battery from GoPro) so am curious to see how it goes.
GoPros seem to be like any other camera TBH, you get good ones and bad ones. They do offer a 30 day money back...
