Yeah but his profile is on your XB360.... what I'm saying is if I come to your house and play on your XB360 today or XB1 in a few months.... I'm not sure it would fetch my profile (actually I'm sure it doesn't with the 360) over the internet and XBL..... now I'm sure it is technically possible..... but that would be quite insane to think that azure/orlean cloud server could process information your kinect 2 sends and fetch a profile over millions of other recorded profiles all over the world.....
if it can and will do that.... people can tell me what ever they want against the power of the cloud and gaming.... I will be impressed no matter what and will be sold for the long run....
if I can go to anybody's place who has an XB1 and XBL.... grab a controller and within sconds have my profile downloaded and all without me doing anything.... that would be freaking impressive.... you imagine what that could mean for the future ???

No more need for credit cards, IDs, passeport, keys and lobby desk for hotels etc.... you can be recognised by a freaking camera all over the world... you add a couple checks on top such as print scanner like you use a signature on a check today.... and I wont need a wallet anymore or  keys....
heck I go in vaccation no need for a welcome desk I go straight to my room it bills me and all but on top of that when I arrive it knows already my habbits sets up the AC to my taste... talks back to me to tell me what would be nice to check out around here sets up the right mini bar drinks to be put in ... etc.... and all that for really cheap when you see how much palace hotels today invest to have data base on their big customers....

That does sound cool - like your very own private valet that sets everything the way you like it.  It could even shop for you and have the things you like delivered.  Everyone would be treated like a rich celebrity.

For my peace of mind.  I would like to still have an authentication of some kind.  Like a password to verify that it is actually me, and not someone who looks nearly identical.  Plus there is the thing of identical twins. I am not sure if Kinect 2.0 has the resolution to tell them apart.

And other have pointed out Microsoft was awarded this patent.  So it might be coming. 

But speaking of the future, have you seen this video?
