GameSpot: "By focusing on strong character development and beautiful locales, Fable: The Journey provides an engaging adventure enhanced by satisfying motion controls."
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.
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.
When an original game becomes a hit, it can be difficult to re-configure its secret sauce into an equally enjoyable sequel.
Not Halo 5. It had a bad story COMPARED to past games but it didn't have a bad story overall. The gameplay was top notch, and multiplayer is still one of the best on the market right now. Custom games browser is the single greatest thing 343 did which I'm grateful for.
Halo 5, FarCry 2, Dragon Age 2, Nuts and Bolts, and Gears of War: Judgement were all far from bad games. Hell, even Crackdown 2 was pretty fun.
There's a difference between a lesser sequel, and a bad game.
With a Title that says "horrible sequels", most of these are far from that. Better title should be disappointing sequels. But I'm sure they went with the former to get clicks and bring in the fanboys.
IGN, EGM, OXM and now Gamespot saying this is a great. Hater will hate because its in their blood but im going to just give this a try at some point
It's not hate just because you decide not to accept the flaws a game has. You decipher it as hate because it doesn't agree with your view of the game. But the people who reviewed it badly have no personally vendetta against the game. They just said they don't like it and gave their reasons. Now that doesn't mean that you can't form your own opinions or views on the game or buy it anyway but you can't simply dismiss someone's view or opinion because you don't like how it sounds. I listen to both sides before I buy a game and don't simply ignore the bad stuff because it is money I am spending on it. Suppose i buy it only to find out the people saying the bad stuff are right.You can playing it buy and do what ever you want but it is very immature to simply dismiss someones opinion just you don't like how it sounds. This is not the first time a Kinect game has been accused of non functionality by both reviewers and gamers and you can't just accuse everyone of 'you are not doing it right'. Besides if you read the reviews the problem is not just the functionality. It's the game itself.
