GameInformer: "I had my likeness scanned into the game then took first place in a fun jet skiing race."
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.
"Some good digital games for PS4, Xbox One and Xbox 360 are on sale at Amazon. Deals include Battlefield Hardline $10, Star Wars: Battlefront Deluxe $35, Kinect Sports Rivals $12 and more!"
If you got young kids around the house, you don't want to be playing games like COD or DOOM. These are some kid friendly games you could get to keep your kiddo's entertained.
"The Xbox One’s Kinect feels much more precise. The game recognized the slightest adjustments in my imaginary steering, including an open or closed hand which controlled throttle." Bye, bye 'on rails' Kinect games.
"took first place with little effort thanks to the accurate motion controls." These will be the kinds of quotes you will be seeing going forward in X1/ Kinect adds.
Next step is to get Kiosk setup in the M$ store in malls across the U.S and the Best Buy and targets, and where ever moms and Kids hand out.
I have not heard one negative from the press regarding Kinect Sports: Rivals.
M$ is in a really great position now, because they stuck to their guns on this one.
Its all down to the devs and not the device honestly. The device seems fantastically accurate but a little lazy and poor coding from devs and their games could be a crappy lag fest.
Yeah kinect sports will likely be good but one good kinect game does not a device make. The fighter within looks lazy and laggy, we will see if devs take the device seriously or if it gets shovelwared to death like the wii did.
Im getting a PS4 day 1. I am getting an Xbox One soon after. Motion gaming is fun and makes you exercise, I have 2 kids and they are the main reason I want a kinect. I always felt the original kinect was good but it was not as precise as I would like. In the article it seems like kinect 2.0 improved on that and much more. The next major problem was that they did not have a lot of major games supporting it. I think making it come with the console should help that out as well.
I am just hoping for the greatest gaming generation ever next gen. I can not wait until Zelda comes out on the wii u I know that will make me buy 1. Personally this gen (ps3 360, wii) has been the best for me. Just so many great games came out non stop for all consoles. I do not stick to just 1 console ever because every console has something over another, and really amazing exclusives on all consoles.
Great....
