The problem there, I worry, is once someone starts selling an indie game with third party support MS will go after them legally.

They don't have much standing with the hackers atm, but a commercial indie game is another matter.

Which is concerning :(

The point of the parent post was using these things in creating games, not as a game interface. That is, to make animation more realistic. Then again, given commercial motion capture systems are in the 5-10k range for pretty good stuff, I don't suppose that's a major concern for a game studio.
Bah, my comment was something I had in the back of my mind... so I looked at the parent and misread it as being on the same topic, sorry :)
