If holding something is so important to people, can't they just hold something in their hand? Will Kinect be able to ignore it?

Besides, it shouldn't be a problem as you'll eventually adapt to it.

Yeah, I was playing table tennis with a remote in my hand no problem. Honestly though, holding something in your hand does not enhance the experience.

What is surreal is watching your avatar mirror your movements. I have a counter right outside my play area and every now and then I would reach for my drink. I would pick up a drink and my avatar would follow my movements and take sips or eat a slice of pizza. You could probably hold whatever you wanted and it wouldn't care.

Forza Kinect is the dumbest thing ever.. Just hear me out. All racing games strive to use a percise steering wheel, but those lunatics think it will be fun to hold your arms out, and not use any gas. What the heck are they thinking!? Way to waste time. Just make Forza 4, not this terrible-ness no one wants. Besides the point, is that Kinect isn't even sensitive/percise enough to work well with a racing game. A controller is bad enough in all honesty. But I dunno if you know, it's extremely tiring to hold your arms like you're driving for long periods of time. Can't they incorperate Kinect in a different way to Forza, using it as a full on controller isa terrible idea.

WHAT IS MICROSOFT THINKING!!!

And if you think I am hating, then do what I say. I love racing games, and it hurts me to know they are wasting a franchise with such idiocy. Well anyways, do this for 5 minutes. Hold up your arms like you have a steering wheel (10-2 position). Than pretend drive for 5 minutes. Now imagine that....ALL THE TIME! God forbid you enter in an endurance race. If you tried it, and think that isn't bad, do it for 15-20 minutes like most races. Yea, just made you flip....

I agree with you yet after GT5 release , Turn 10 probably leaning more to a casual arcade racer for Forza 4. After both FM3 and now GT5 release, Fm4 sales more likely drop compared to Fm3 sales if it was another hardcore sim. So I would expect Forza 4 be Forza 3-lite with Kinect.

Something to watch for; is the Star War game on rails or will you use a controller alone with Kinect?
