How Microsoft Should Use Kinect 0

Yes, I just finished watching the live stream of the MS E3 conference. Nothing much of a big deal to me, but this is E3 and not the BlueGamer Expo. What did have me intrigued is the use of Kinect. Originally, my thoughts were just ‘Wii without controllers’. But after the Forza demonstration, a thought occurred to me.

Playing games like IL-2 on the PC, TrackIR is a must. TrackIR is a little infrared sensor mounted on my monitor that tracks my head movements. Using this, I look around in my cockpit and even out across the sky. Now, I’m sure you’re seeing where I’m going with this. Watching that Forza demonstration, I could only imagine sitting on my couch with a 360 Gaming Wheel using Kinect to allow me to look around as I drive. This could make the driving simulation much more of a simulation. Even playing the 360 version of IL-2 irks me without TrackIR.

Will MS make this happen, or is it up to the devs?
