Microsoft Demo Code-Entry Via Kinect 2.0 On Xbox One

One thing I hate about my Xbox 360 is that I use store bought top up cards for Xbox Live. Entering the code can be a bit of a fiddle, especially with the on screen keyboard and a controller to navigate it. Microsoft have a solution for this and now you won’t have to type your codes in at all.

Microsoft’s gaming front man Major Nelson uploaded a video to Vine to demonstrate the feature and how fast the  new Kinect camera can scan the Xbox Live code.

This might not sound much, but it is a feature you will come to appreciate. This could just be a taste of the extra features and benefits that will develop for the Kinect camera over the next few years.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
