Ever wonder why you can’t play a movie directly streamed from your Xbox 360’s Kinect? …Us neither. But would you do it if you had the option? …Us too!

Today, Microsoft is announcing an Xbox 360 update that will bring Kinect support for Netflix. The idea behind it is that you’ll have all the wonderful features of the Kinect – voice control, motion sensor – mixed with the wonderful features of renting movies. Imagine a world where we never have to search for the remote again. Larry Hryb, Xbox Live programming director, posted the announcement today on his blogspot, saying, “You’ll be able to select movies and TV shows recommended for you by Netflix, as well as play, pause, fast forward and rewind using gesture or voice.”

So, next time you start up your Netflix, you better believe there will be a prompt begging you to upgrade.
