NZ Gamer: Gosh. Golly. Wow. Words cannot express quite how terrible this game is. For a word-based based review, this is a bit of a problem.
I’m not going to go in depth here. The very existence of Sports Island Freedom is a waste of time, so I don’t want to waste any more prattling on about how bad it is. Suffice to say: if you inadvertently pick up this game instead of the vastly superior Kinect Sports, take it back to the store immediately. Immediately.
Console Monster - It was inevitable that after the Kinect peripheral was announced that a barrage of 'average' games were going to be created simply to try and milk the cash cow that the Kinect peripheral has created. Hudson's Sports Island Freedom is unfortunately one of those titles that almost every games reviewer doesn't want to review but has to. Don't skip to the review score yet though as I need to tell you why the game is so bad and should be avoided at all costs.
"Like Robben Island and Alcatraz Island when they were still operational, and the Greek island of Patmos where St. John was exiled, Sports Island Freedom is yet another desolate place of misery for its inhabitants and I would rather lick anthrax powder off of the back of the disc than ever play it again. Sports Island Freedom is officially my nominee for the worst game of the year."
With Microsoft’s Kinect device well and truly launched, a few other titles have been released and among them are three titles from Konami.
At GodisaGeek.com we thought we’d do a short roundup of those titles, namely Dance Paradise, Sports Island Freedom and Crossboard 7, and see whether they are worthy off adding to the Kinect Collection! (I really wanted to use “Kollection” there)
