"In the future I’m expecting to be betting on a hybrid model, a game with a controller where Kinect can be used for speech or hand movement recognition."

hmmmmm, this reminds me of something, let me think, a system that combines a camera and a controller...hmmmm....somehow seems familiar.....oh, wait the future is now! CliffyB you need to get yourself a PS3 and its Move controller, because that is exactly what you are expecting from the future!!

Advice to CliffyB, think first, then talk.

Move controller is not the same thing as a traditional controller. WIthout the move controller, move can't work like Kinect and thats the point. You can't grab your 6 axix controller can you? stick your arm in the air to throw a grenade or whatever,no you can't . SO what where you saying. If the ball on move goes behind you or the eye can't see it, it stops connection with the controller.  So a hand in the air won't work now will it, NO IT WON'T!.

ADVICE TO YOU, THINK FIRST, THEN TALK.

Actually you could very easily do that with the PS Eye, the main difference between Kinect and PSEye is aboutdepth perception. The PS Eye needs something like the Move to be able to detect depth well. But just sticking your arm in the air to throw a grenade would work well, although it would likely be a very irritating mechanic. Also if you are playing your FPS with the Move you could move your Move controller up in the air to do exactly that too. And I don't even know what point you are trying to make about the Move going behind your back, are you trying to say that if you put your arms behind your back and move them around behind your back Kinect is able to x-ray through you and see whats going on?

So advice goes back to you again my friend.
