VideoGamer - Kinect Sports: Season Two Preview

VideoGamer - When I reviewed Kinect Sports back in November, I claimed that it was a better sports compendium than Wii Sports, and then gave it 7/10. For this, I've received a steady stream of abuse from my colleagues, but I stand firmly by these comments. Wii Sports might have had a huge impact on the motion gaming landscape - it single-handedly kick-started it, in fact - but it's technically limited and ultimately devoid of skill. Kinect Sports was certainly the better game, but even that had much room for improvement. And that's exactly what we're getting with Season 2.

seriously if they had sales like this (steam like) then i seriously would not have had a problem with the DRM

Indeed. MSFT has the right vision that everything should go digital. From a business perspective, it eliminate the cost of disc production, shipping, etc. It also allows them to be more flexible in terms of pricing and sales.

However, their messaging and PR SUCKED. All Playstation had to do in their E3 event was say "we won't do what Xbox is doing," and they won.

You cannot stop the future. It will eventually get to all-digital. It is just a matter of time.

Grandma Kicks The Crap Out Of Kinect

Super PolyPixel - “Whoo! Yeah! Yeah! Whoo!” are the intense words this grandma spouts as she plays Kinect Kickball. She really is quite physically active for an 80-year-old. I thought she might bite it at about 18 seconds in and land hard on that coffee table. Watch the video and see what happens. Whoo! Yeah! – I’m going to be saying that while karate chopping everything today.

How don't these companies understand that using motion in games is a CHORE. We don't want to do chores or have to work....we want to relax and be mentally stimulated and delighted by all the great music, cool art styles and amazing gameplay.

It's great that people of all ages can play games suited to them. However, I found myself very concerned for her health..

StrongMan4105d ago

This is who MS abandoned us hardcore gamers for. Take a long hard look at this and think about it.

Count4105d ago

It is silly to try and distinguish yourself as anything more than simply a gamer.

Right now id rather be a member of that family than a miserable person on a website complaining about the family having the ability to play on the 360.

I love the fact i can sit and play core games like Crysis 3, halo 4, Dead Space 3 and more. Then be able to play with all the family and look dumb.

Gaming isn't just about being alone in a dark room anymore (I prefer the core games BTW)
