Top 5 Kinect Games to Keep an Eye On

From the PlanetXbox360.com feature top list:

"The Kinect has received a lot of love and hate from the ‘core’ audience that often prefer AAA titles with large budgets when it comes to spending their hard-earned money. This audience often avoids titles aimed at younger audiences and is quick to throw out labels such as shovelware and cheap tie-ins. Microsoft has done an adequate job thus far to help secure and even help developers see their ideas come to fruition with such as popular Dance Central series or a cult favorite such as Child of Eden. Even Electronic Arts implemented Kinect controls with their recent release of their blockbuster space-opera RPG, Mass Effect 3. Kinect is a more than capable piece of technology when put in the right hands, so it comes to our great pleasure to discuss our five more anticipated Kinect-enabled titles for 2012."

If you are keeping an eye on kinect games you might as well keep an eye on your rubbish bin

Kind of strange to have a list of the the Top 5 to look out for and 2 were already released.

I disagree with the author's contention that Kinect Sports Golf 'wasn't good'. In fact, IMO the complete opposite was true, K. Sports golf is the funnest motion control golf game on the market.

I own Tiger 13, but it's not better than K. Sports Season two.

As for the most notable Kinect releases it would be..

Fable: The Journey
Steel Battalion
Crimson Dragon

With Kinect compatability with Ghost Recon and I'm going to assume the upcoming Forza Horizons as well.

Best usage of Kinect this year thus far was with Mass Effect 3.

Or the bargain bin, I hear Star Wars Kinect is already selling at a reduced price.

Godmars2904777d ago

every notable Kinect release in other words, except Fable Journey.

Kinect is a failure. Not in terms of sales but in terms of reputation. Who cares if the kids are happy. Are you happy with Kinect?

Why do people keep wanting motion controls?

Sofa, beer, controller, violence, surround sound, thanks.

I agree with the Sofa, beer, controller, violence, surround sound, part but I have found Forza 4 and Kinect works very well when racing in car esp for online racing. I just hope more games add this to there racing games. Yes I know its not for everyone but I think it adds a bit to the game. I also found Rise of Nightmare's a fun and good game to get into and something different to the other games out there because of its style of play.

I don't want motion control to take over the game like in rise of nightmare's but I would like to see some more developers try doing something new to the games and adding things like hard tracking ect to some games dose add to the game without messing the game up.

Bro missing companions: Legion, Grunt, Samara/Morinth, Javik, EDI

anast178d ago

Legion, Zaeed, and Jack are my favorites.

RiseNShine178d ago

To think that Bioware at some point was capable of doing games like this, you see those characters and remember them like good old friends, and now check ME Andromeda, Anthem, Veilguard etc and wonder what the hell happened.

anast178d ago

They lost too much talent.

IAMRealHooman178d ago

some in andromeda are decent, I agree with peebee and Vetra being good companions. Except Liam he's trash tier

anast178d ago

Liam lol I can't stand that dude.

IAMRealHooman177d ago

Mass Effect 3's Ending for Javik Misses the Forest for the Trees

Based on one narratively fitting ending in Mass Effect 3, Prothean squadmate Javik is highly unlikely to return in the next Mass Effect game.

He was one of my least favorite characters. I wish they would have done the Proths different.
