Kinect has very neat features that hardcore players that play on their own may not experience.
Uses that have been useful so far.
Just Dance - awesome how it can now see a 4 year old a 6 foot+ chap 5 feet away. We just get up and play.
Zoo Tycoon - kids love feeding animals
Skype - awesome use of Kinect, kids talk to grandparents
Volume control - just awesome now it moves up more than 3 notches
Hiding things inappropriate to people in the room - daughter scared of Dead Rising image for example. Kinect see's her, hides it, plus she cant play the game. Auto sign in really useful.
Kinect Sports will be first game to make full use of it.
Xbox Fitness is really good with Kinect
Project Spark - putting yourself in games
Where in the rules does it say Kinect (or indeed the Xbox) has to only cater for hardcore gamers.
This is just the start future stuff could include:-
Scanning players into call of duty type games. Killing your mates
Horror games, dark room with Kinect monitoring your actions.
and loads more
