I posted this in another thread but I agree about the voice commands. 

I had taken a break from playing and left the Xbox on at the dashboard with Kinect Sports in the drive.  As I was walking back towards my TV area I said "Xbox play disc" and by the time I settled in the game was already booting.  It's hard to explain how cool it feels unless you do it but it's very slick.  In a normal situation I would have had to find the controller, wait for it to turn on and then started the game.

I also love the automatic sign in with Kinect ID.  It's amazing when you step in front of a game and it just recognizes you and brings in your avatar.

 

 

I did the same thing yesterday when I started playing Your Shape.  I turned on the 360 and then left the room to finish something realized I forgot to start the game.  Without even turning around I said "Xbox, Play disc" and when I came back in the room the game was already started up and most of the way through all the intro screens.

And yeah, I forgot to say the facial recognition stuff is pretty cool and pretty impressive.  My 360 easily recognizes me now and when I had my friends over Friday night it even recognized them even though they had no profiles!  Every time one of them sat down and another took their place, it remember which avatar to use!
