Microsoft: Kinect is a bigger 'step forward' than the Wii

Looks very awkward to play, how would you play FPS? By saying bang bang while holding your hand up like a gun? lol

Has anyone considered that you can do the same thing with Kinect as with Move, use your regular controller with it?

If you hold a 360 controller in your left hand you have easy access to an analog stick, a trigger and the d-pad. Even my eight year old daughter can do this and reach all but the far right side of the d-pad easily and even that with a stretch. If you hold it in your right hand the analog stick is a little to far to be used long term but all four buttons and the trigger are easily accessed.

Not saying this makes it ideal for all games but it does open up a lot of possibilities.

So this defeats the purpose of being hands-free then if you're holding something.
