To effect gesture navigation, the hand moves simultaneously with the cursor. The only negative is that it’s not as quick as using a controller. The voice apparatus is designed for acute accuracy – no matter where you happen to be in the game, because it has bi-directional mics. The video chat is also compatible with Windows Live Messenger.

The motion navigation includes all body parts, as opposed to only the arms – and intuitively knows when movements are occurring. For example, the Kinect Sports Volleyball game is aware when a player jumps in the air. This is considered by many as the first time that a feature like this has existed in this type of gaming experience.

Pros

This will allow a wider camera viewing angle.

A lot of room is required to play the Xbox Kinect Console’s games, due to the physical nature of them. A small apartment, for example, may present a difficult challenge to overcome.
