It's actually gotten more difficult to play Kinect games in our small space. He could not recognize the players, during one game the player had his legs completely chopped off and his arms twisted to the point of ridiculousness. Once we removed that everything worked fine, even in our small room the Kinect sensor worked better. I am very sad that Microsoft no longer offers Kinect, family/group games. Super fun for family reunions, groups, a much more entertaining semi-workout method where everyone plays video games and competes.
