"Embarassing" Kinect Interview

[Reasonable]

BTW I have no idea why anyone who wants to play a driving game would use Kinect (or Move or even the Wiimote on its own) as the input.  That's just nuts and so wrong for that activity.

23 Million, and climbing. Unless the "on its own" comment was meant to exclude the wheel shell, which you don't actually need to play unless you're on manual and want to drift more easily.

That's exactly why I said that.  Though in truth I was also speaking more to hardcore titles seeking to replicate the feel of driving vs the (very fun) style of something like Mario Kart.  Mind you, I do find it much better with the wheel than without.

In the end, the superior - i.e. best - controller for a driving game is a wheel a gamepad is okay and something like Kinect I have to be blunt and say is probably at the bottom of the pile.

They'll make driving games on it anyway - but it's just a waste really.

But then I'm a form and function type of guy - I want the best form for the function.
