Ranieri, what does that look like? I am having a hard time juggling these update cycles...

Hrmmm...

public static bool CheckKeyPress(Keys key)
{
    return keyboardState.IsKeyUp(key) && lastKeyboardState.IsKeyDown(key);
}

SetStates() is private and it is called in the Update()

private static void SetStates()
{
    lastKeyboardState = keyboardState;

    keyboardState = Keyboard.GetState();
}

Here is the update...

public sealed override void Update(GameTime gameTime)
{
    // Called to set the states of the input devices
    SetStates();
    base.Update(gameTime);
}

I've tried adding extra checks..

if (Xin.CheckKeyPress(Keys.Enter) ||
    Xin.CheckButtonPress(Buttons.A))
{
    if (Xin.LastKeyboardState != Xin.KeyboardState ||
        Xin.LastGamePadState(PlayerIndex.One) != Xin.GamePadState(PlayerIndex.One))
    {

doesn't seem to have any noticeable effects - I can't seem to slow down the menu confirmations,
