Kinect enhances our experiences and provides new experiences that are great.
When will the sad lonely people wake up and realise yesterdays game types were never meant for todays and tommorrows control schemes.

Wake up world. Halo anniversary, forza 4, mass effect 3 etc is how kinect is improving our hard ore games without ruining them.
Giant bomb among others state its hard to go back and play mass effect 3 without kinect.

From what I understand, Halo and Mass Effect are just voice controls.  If they really thought these 'features' were improving the games, then why are they 360 and Kinect exclusive?  Why would headsets or even the PSeye not work?  I know supposedly the Kinect hardware does some of the work, but there were voice commands on the PS2.  Pretty sure modern PCs can handle it.  You'd think the developers would want all people to have the best possible game if they really thought such things added to it.  I'm sure there are more 360 owners with headsets than kinects.  It's blatantly obvious these are just tacked on extras to try and justify kinect to the crowd who isn't interested in dancing games.
