My biggest problem with Kinect is that i don't really want to play a game standing up or moving around. I want to sit on my bed, chill, and play with a controller. Honestly, this is the way most all gamers will always play their games. There is just no way you can stand there and play soccer for more than an hour. Now Halo, that can go on for days on end. 

This is a classic post and demonstrates a mindset of a number of gamers of which a number are in this thread. 

You need to come out of your little cocoon and then you might realise that you can do both. Some games are better played standing up others are better played sitting down. Some games are better played using a system like Kinect others a controller and yet others again a hybrid.  The fact you have come out with a Halo and Soccer comparison to try and back up your argument demonstrates you have not thought this through.

Kinect is not restricted to standing it is just that the initial crop of games standing up makes perfect sense. You can for example navigate the system sitting down.

 

I understand you can do both. But what i am seeing, and what is coming, is simply games that you have to stand and move around. And by the way, i said "standing up or moving around", that includes moving your arms even if you are sitting. I have thought this through, i mean, how many hours could you play a kinect game? There is just no way ANYONE can play soccer for more than 2 hours. Honestly, a cocoon? How about, don't fix it if it ain't broke.

edit: by the way, there was no argument in my post. It was just my problem with kinect. Good day.
