Lowest rated next gen games only on Xbox One. This and Lococycle.

Knightshade3767d ago

I tried to be as professional and non-brutal as I could, but seriously...this game is hardly functional. It's pretty to look at though, for whatever that's worth.

MightyNoX3766d ago

@Peasfor : I'd forgotten about that label "Better with Kinect". Hah, thanks for reminding me.

MasterCornholio3766d ago

@PeaSFor

Better with Joe.

No seriously his video with the game is hilarious.

B-radical3767d ago

No one cares about this or lococycle thank god.....to the e.t dump site it goes! Ahaha

andrewsqual3766d ago

Hopefully this kills the time and money wasted on Kinect only games from the end of 2013 on. Kinect on Xbox One and this game, proof that real games STILL DON'T WORK ON IT.

mrpsychoticstalker3766d ago

The good thing about lococycle and fighter within is that Microsoft released them day one, giving users an opportunity to experience from a wide variety of games, there are always good and bad games on launches, these two are definitely bad and I never even thought of buying either.
Just as I never even think on using the PlayStation 4's "playroom" that is just bad, in my opinion.

The playroom has become sonys stealth killer app. People are using it alot to stream.

Insomnia_843766d ago (Edited 3766d ago )

You can play the Playroom, up to you if you want to stream your gameplay to the world. You might be confusing Playroom with streaming and thinking of them as one but they are two different things. One is a game and the other is a PS4 feature.

Ladies and Gentlemen i give you the power of kinect; making your gaming console more expensive than necessary.

NoLongerHereCBA3766d ago

Nobody was expecting this game to get high grades. Not even fanboys, so that power of Kinect crap is useless. This is just a faulty concept that shouldn't have been released at all.

Knightshade3766d ago

That's not the case though! The Kinect has enough juice to make this game work - unfortunately the developers....didn't.

MRMagoo1233767d ago

Contender for worse game ever made perhaps ?

Knightshade3766d ago

Certainly of this year. I was going to cast my vote for Aliens: Colonial Marines, but it functioned. It was low-res, the levels were out of order, and the aliens were laugh-out-loud funny to watch, but it did actually work. This on the other hand doesn't, sealing its fate as my vote for 2013's worst of the year.

Iltapalanyymi3767d ago

waggling handsfest. i knew it would fail the day i first saw it.

TruthInsider 3767d ago

Kinect really makes a difference to games like... erm.... erm... There must be loads, i just can't think, they wouldn't have spent GPU money on making Kinect mandatory for nothing would they... Would they?

What do you mean "Its only purpose is for data mining/ad revenue"?

Microsoft wouldn't do that, they are the most transparent, likeable and honest company in the world.

Fifa Road To World Cup 2006 might of been crap, but it had some bangin easy achievements

RealOldGamer2007d ago

Night Trap was awesome, cheesy, and terrible all in one. It's a game everyone has to play.

I also loved Street Fighter The Movie, and Street Fighter: The Movie - the game.
Kylie Minogue, Ming-Na Wen and The Muscles From Brussels all in one movie/game? Yeah its already awesome.

Top 10 Worst Kinect Games

Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "A few days ago, Microsoft announced that they were officially discontinuing their Kinect motion-sensing accessory. What was once considered a chief-rival to Nintendo’s Wii revolution and an integral part of the Xbox One’s launch has come to an end, and we here at Link-Cable… couldn’t be happier. The Kinect, while sporting impressive technology never managed to live up to its full potential and most of the games released for the device either had shoe-horned in support or barely functioned as intentioned, in part because of the device’s very specific ideal conditions. So as the Kinect sails off into sunset, we’ve decided to remember the worst of times and look back at the Top 10 Worst Kinect games."

Kinect, for me, is easily worth owning for two things: Dance Central for me acting like an idiot and having fun, and Kinect Party for my kids when they want to have easy-access stupid fun at like a kid's party. Those were the only games I have enjoyed on it, and they couldn't be done any other way (well, I guess that KP is EyeToy-level work). But my hope is that when motion control falls away, we'll get a proper DDR again.

andrewsquall2346d ago (Edited 2346d ago )

Yet for 150 quid it is and was most certainly not worth owning for solely those 2 games, that you have to pay money for also.

Now far be it from me to tell you what is worth it or not worth it to you. But if that is what is worth it to you, I don't want to know what ISN'T worth it lol.

RyanDJ2345d ago

It was worth it to buy one used for half price and get one of those two games for free. ;)

datriax2346d ago

All of them are tied for 1st place.

darthv722346d ago

Star wars wouldnt be so bad if it didnt have.... the dancing. Ughhh that dancing.

They should do a list of 10 best kinect games as well. I'm sure fruit ninja and gun stringer would be on there. Those are actually fun to play.
