Once known as “Project Natal,” Xbox 360 maker Microsoft has christened their hands-free game controller “Kinect”.  Basically it is a device that lets players be the game controller. The new Xbox controller was hugely popular at the E3 2010 gathering in Los Angeles.

Some games available for Kinect will be Your Shape and Dance Central. Physical fitness is an obvious theme. The bowling game might be interesting. The Kinect requires no controller and is pretty good at recognizing you and what your doing.
