Previously code-named “Project Natal,” Kinect is controller-free gaming device that will revolutionize game play by allowing you yourself to be the controller.

Now there is no longer the need to memorize different button sequences or certain commands. You simply step in front of the sensor and Kinect sees your moves, hears your voice and recognizes your face.

The following games will be released with Kinect:

  • Kinectimals - Allows you to get in touch with your feline side by training cats and lions.
  • Kinect Sports - This sounds like Wii Sports on steroids. Gamers can fully interact with such sports at boxing, bowling, and volleyball.
  • Joyride - A racing game that forces you to hold your hands out in front of you to grasp an imaginary steering wheel.

    Kinect will make gaming and the experience you obtain from it a more natural feeling without being tied down to a controller and cord which should interest the whole entire family.
