Who thinks Microsoft should make a disc golf game for the Xbox Kinect? I think it would be cool!!

I wouldn't create a game for the Kinect. The Kinect to me is too limited by not using a controller. I would have a hard time registering the angle of your hand and release points. I think a disc golf game would be better suited for the "Move" if you want a more realistic feel.
You could...get this...hold....a disc.......
That being said, I don't think I see the manufacturers signing on to have a video game maker show how the virtual version of their discs flying less favorably in comparison to those of their competitor's virtual discs. I also don't think that would do much for disc golf laymen who might understand the concept of a midrange, but not know what a "Buzzz" or "Roc" is.
Don't worry, it will have a little lanyard on it like the wii-mote.
I think all the new use of motion video game consoles should make a DG game that looks realistic and plays at least somewhat realistic, and has some realistic courses, or lets users design their own.

I would be afraid to break stuff in the house if I did that. My instincts would tell me it's time to release the disc and I would most likely do that at some point.
Thing is the real versions of the cars in those games cost tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars. A BV goes for around $1.5+ million. Driving a virtual version of one in a video game is about as close to driving one of those babies as most of us joe blows are going to get.I'm not so sure I would agree with that. If that was the case you probably wouldn't see too many car companies jumping on board with video games like Need for Speed. I mean when I'm driving a Bugatti Veyron at over 200MPH in the game and have a police SUV passing me it really doesn't look good for Bugatti LOL. People know that video games are not perfect and won't represent perfect reactions for a real product.

Conversely, anybody can go spend $8-20 on a golf disc. I don't think Innova or Discraft would want to turn off a potential customer because the virtual presentation of their discs isn't to their liking.

I could see myself letting go of the disc, only to have it recoil and hit me in the head. LOL
