It can already detect body movement so you can play games without a controller. It can even let you order pizza without having to push a single button. Yep, Microsoft’s Kinect motion and voice sensing add-on for the Xbox 360 is already a powerful bit of kit, but the new version just around the corner can do even more.

Say what you like, but virtual farming is big business. And that means the release of Farm Tycoon onto the Xbox ecosystem should appeal.
Whole lotta potential. I would be lying if I said I was getting Xbox for anything other than Kinect support.
I am really excited to see what people can do with it in a few years. So much potential.
love how they will implement it in dead rising 3, hoping for my ideas like that, not so much with extreme motions and odd gyrations.
Kinect 1.0 all got us thinking of the potential but it clearly never delivered like many hoped it would. It was clear from the start that what came out as Kinect wasn't powerful enough to do what many dreamed it could.
With Kinect 2.0 I do see a device that really could deliver something special, something uique into gaming. Looking back at a game like LA Noire where the player not only questioned an NPC but also had to read their expressions could have been so much more with something like Kinect 2.0. Imagine engaging in an interogation of a suspect where not only do you verbally ask questions and read their facial expressions but one where the NPC could be reading your facial expressions too. No more dialogue trees but just allow players to speak to the NPC. Its the promise of Milo but now with a device that actually can deliver.
