Are you saying that Valve should make a TF2 Kinect workout game?

I dunno, i think this is pretty awesome.  Have some massive achievements in there to drive the point whores (like myself).  I think this is a great thing for games to do.

No, they should save that kind of mind blowing shit for Episode 3.

I was feeling your pain there Ryan. Looks much less annoying than the actual show. Loving all these Kinect videos!

Is it true that when you beat this game and get all the achievements you win a date with the girl on the front of the box?!

The Kinect game that almost killed Ryan. Was a fun watch though. Watched all these while live and the QLs. Was a fun day, though. =)

" Inputting numerical info with the kinect seems awful.  "

If they used a vertical scroll wheel and let you just raise your hand up and down to select the number  like Dance Central it would be super easy. Unfortunately it seems like the UI designers for most of these launch games were extremely lazy. Hopefully developers will learn to use the best input methods soon.    Zune Marketplace also has a search functionality which works pretty well. You scroll left and right across all the characters with your hand and then lift up your hand  to select the character that you want.
 
The best menu UI's I've seen thus far are these:

Dance Central - raise and lower hand to scroll through menu and swipe arm across body to select
Adrenalin Misfits - copy on screen body position to select menu option (Kinect ID also uses this)
Your Shape - Place menu items around in-game avatar
 
I also like the voice recognition in Sonic Free Riders but the rest of the menu system is such a mess.

Knowing Ryan hurt himself during this video, does watching this make it better or worse than youtubing when Sid Vicious broke his leg against Scott Steiner?  
 
That leg becomes an over-cooked noodle of pasta.

As someone who's been overweight to varying degrees for most of his life, I can identify with Ryan's plight here. Major props to him for still doing the Kinect stuff all throughout launch day. (PRO-TIP: If you really want to lose weight, get a gallbladder infection. I dropped 60 pounds thanks to that motherfucker!)

This was entertaining, but getting really tired because of this should be a red flag Ryan.
 
Why not keep this game, roll down the drapes at home and work out 30mins every other day.
It wont make you slim, 60mins pr day plus watching what you eat will do that, but it will improve your health.

They need to make one of those with insults, then if you do well you get to beat the shit out of the trainer as a bonus. 
 
I would buy a knect for that.
