Microsoft has made Kinect voice and motion control a necessary requirement for all new Xbox apps.

It's also good for universal intuitiveness. Thenew Xbox dashboard arrived earlier this week, bringing with it revamped apps for all the previously available Xbox services such as Netflix. These new apps now adopt menus in line with the dashboard itself, bringing an intuitive sense of unity to the whole system.
