id Software or more specifically John Carmack (Doom series creator) wants to create a game for Kinect but also hints it might be better as an XBLA type and a non-shooter.
Ideally, they would develop the game similar to how they develop games for the iOS platform instead of being a full-blown Xbox 360 or PS3 game.

"I can't use Kinect for our real games; there just isn't a place for our current FPSes on there," Carmack said. "But it's an interesting technology, and an Xbox Live game would be the perfect platform to do something like that on, at about the same scale of [a game for] an iOS device."
