Socoder -> Mini Challenges -> Design : a Kinect game

Lets presume first that Kinect is everything that MS claims it to be (very accurate and very good at recognising things). Lets also presume that you have an infinite amount of time and resources to build any kinect game you wanted, so what would you build?

My brother had a great idea for a game where Kinect would recognise the objects in your room. On each level the game would give you a list of objects and you'd have to get them into your room in order to pass that level.

First few levels might be to have stuff like 3 chairs and a table, or 4 candles in the room. However later levels would be more exotic asking for you to have a mooses head, a saxaphone, a dog and a grandfather clock all at the same time!

I honestly find it hard to think of a more perfect game for Project Natal than 'Milo and Kate'. It's so perfect, in fact, that people have commented that the video Peter Moleyneux showed at E3 was bollocks (I.E it had been faked).
Too bad it seems Lionhead aren't thinking of taking the game into production...

Though, I suppose, in a perfect world, you'd have something like 'The Sims Online' where you could build houses, have your friends over for tea and pick up girls out on the town only to quite literally fuck them in the hottub later on!!

The 4 candles is just what came to mind when I was scratching for an easy level idea.

But can no one here think of any creative ideas on how they would like to see Kinect being used?

Nothing I can think of that's new. Everything either exists as a real-world game, or a Wii game.

And that's the crux of MS's "AMAZING!" new system.
They're too late.

As a device, as a camera, and as a general UI interactive menu system, sure, go for it!!
But..
...
meh.

Been there, done that.
The only market is those too twatty to have bothered trying the Wii, because they felt they were "too mature" for it.
