Basically, at this point, if you like to sit and play games, Kinect is not for you. Hopefully they will address this glaring issue so people disabled below the waist and people who cannot stand for long periods of time (not to mention those of us who really don't want to stand for several hours while playing Call of Duty or Forza Motorsport) can actually utilize their new peripheral.

At this point in time, no - hopefully a firmware update can fix that. In fact, I have no idea how do you brake and accelerate in Forza if you're not using your feet anymore. The demo they initially showed when Natal (aka Kinect) debuted was a guy using his foot to brake/accelerate.

You can make your gun into a hand and go 'pew pew pew' in Call of Duty I guess...

 

Or perhaps a game where you slap hoes?

The best use I can think of for this is if they make a game where you control a huge godzilla type monster/giant mech and can stomp around flattening buildings and swatting away puny humans

 

until then, I'm not interested

i want to play a game called virtual waving. There are 3 different waving scenarios and depending on the quality of the wave you are rewarded with up to 4 differently coloured leather gloves.

so a person in a wheelchair can't play the virtual racing game? that just seems mean.

 

Every day is their racing game.

We had this poster at work in our break area that had a picture of a businesswoman in a wheelchair at a desk with a computer, and the headline read: "Some of our best employees have their own chair"

 

I put a note up on it saying "gee, this isn't offensive in the least, is it?"

 

A week later, the poster was taken down.

I don't really understand the reason that brought up that poster on the wall. It just gives a bad impression to the company.
