The Kinect game everyone talked about at E3 is still a year away from release.
The E3 teaser of the game was brief, but just a glimpse of a motion-controlled Jedi dispatching Storm Troopers with a wave of the hand was enough to make Kinect Star Wars the most eagerly anticipated title for Microsoft's motion-sensing device. Unfortunately, Microsoft says the game is still in a galaxy far, far away and won't arrive until Christmas 2011.
In an interview with BBC Newsbeat, Kinect's Creative Director Kudo Tsunoda confirmed it will still be a solid year before the LucasArts-developed Xbox 360 exclusive is released.

In both instances, an in-game Star Wars battle was shown, revealing a third-person Jedi controlled by Kinect. It appeared to be an on-rails action game, with players wielding a light saber and force powers by waving their arms. Here's a demo of the game in action:
