Kinect Sports Rivals isn’t going to win any awards and it hasn’t accomplished Rare and Microsoft’s lofty goal of winning over hardcore gamers. On the bright side, if you go into the game with realistic expectations and just want a fun collection of Kinect mini-games to play with friends, you’ll have a great time with Rivals.
When an original game becomes a hit, it can be difficult to re-configure its secret sauce into an equally enjoyable sequel.
Halo 5?....pffft to each his own but Halo 5 is a great game, every Xbox owner I know enjoyed it, the campaign was nice I like the teamwork concept and the multiplayer keeps 'em coming back with great gameplay & modes so much content, 343 did a helluva job.
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.
Nah it really was a bad campaign. MP was great but seriously, that was a hugely terrible story mode.
The story maybe, but some of the missions were extremely fun. The Sangehlios ones are right up there with the best missions in the franchise.
Halos mp was great but became boring quicker than most.
The story. Naw that was bad and it's marketing was a lie. Made it seem like old master chief was gunna fight that new fake master chief but the conflict ended up being a one punch cgi sequence.
Not to mention fighting the same boss over and over and over....plus add the no split screen mp and whala! You got the worst canon halo ever made
Agreed on sanghelios. That was one of the very few times it actually felt like halo.
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.
This game looks fun for what it is.
You know whatd be cool? A horror game utilizing the kinects ability to read heart rate and reaction time.
I think having a discussion with a character in Mass Effect would be a worthy goal with Kinect. Imagine the Character "recognizing" you and addressing you by name.
So now that we know what Canada thinks, what about the rest of the world?
Going to buy this and lose tons of weight!!!!
Getting this tomorrow. Going to be a fun party game with the Kinect. This and the Killer Instinct Story mode on the 9th, will be a good week.
