I have recently bought the new Kinect control for Xbox which allows to use your whole body to control your game protagonist.

In one game called "Kinect Joy Ride" one has to mimick the postures. The postures are shown as a silhouette of your avatar with a short description like "fireball", "zombie attack", "thinker".

One posture I don't understand is designated as "MVP". Apart from "Most Valuable Professional/Player/Passagier" I don't know what this abbreviation might stand for and none of them makes actually sense to me as a posture.

Any ideas?

Are you aware of gaming.se? I bet they know. – Matt Эллен Nov 24 '11 at 13:07

I guess you'll have more chance to get an answer if you ask this on Gaming.SE. – Mehper C. Palavuzlar Nov 24 '11 at 13:09

Yes, I am aware of the gaming@se, but I don't think that the question is related to gaming. Maybe I am wrong. – Alexander Galkin Nov 24 '11 at 13:09

Does that posture resemble something like this? – D Krueger Nov 24 '11 at 13:30

@DKrueger Good find! It's the Heisman Memorial Trophy Award, "awarded annually to the player deemed the most outstanding player in collegiate football". – Hugo Nov 24 '11 at 13:57
