Microsoft: Kinect works with seated players when 'developed with sitting in mind'

Kinect

A hot topic of speculation since E3, Microsoft has now come in with official confirmation that Kinect does actually work with seated players, provided the game's  "experience is developed with sitting in mind". Which is kinda vague, although Dashboard navigation was specifically pointed as one of those "experiences where we expect people to be sitting." Everybody can get their Minority Report on from the comfort of their couches then.

The company also reminded the planet that what was shown at E3 was "only the tip of the iceberg" and (but) that it will be "natural for Kinect games to be designed to get you off the couch: dancing, running, dodging, bending and kicking."

When you're not enjoying experiences developed with sitting in mind, obviously.
