VIDEO: It's World of Warcraft Using Kinect

I can see lots of uses for this even outside of gaming.

He's looking into the applications the Kinect would have for Physical Therapy, this was him just playing around with it.

Why would anyone want to be hunching over every couple seconds to walk and making gestures that show up on screen almost a second later.

More proof, motion gaming = gimmick. If an action isn't 1:1 that means a good ol' kb/mouse or gamepad is still better.

That guy is the ultimate mage now.

I seriously doubt you can bench double your own weight with correct form if you don't work out.

I swear Kinect has made more headlines for non-Xbox uses than otherwise since launch. Which is good for brand recognition, by the way.

Cool.... perhaps LARPer's will get hooked on WoW and only look goofy indoors now...

Of course you could be completely wrong and motion gaming could actually improve on itself like a controller, keyboard or mouse. Everything improves given enough time and effort, motion gaming should always be second to a controller/mouse/keyboard, but if they can fine tune it then there's nothing wrong with it.

At 2:30 for a few seconds I thought it is Steven Seagul.

LOL @ all the comments about wasting time playing WOW yet many probably wasted = amount or more hours playing Modern Warfare , Halo, or Civilization.
