So, after many years with a PS3 (and one with a Wii -- but we sold it for being a bit rubbish), we've finally bought a 360. It was Kinect that drew my family in. Dancing with sticks just didn't do it for us -- Move has it's strengths, but dancing games isn't one of them -- so Kinect grew increasingly attractive. Finally, after some consideration, we ordered one today. Got a 250Gb 360 with Kinect Adventure, Halo 3, Dance Central, Kinectimals, and obviously, Kinect, all for a good bit under £300. Fairly happy with that.
So, why am I posting?
I need a little help from the Kinect krew (yes, I just did that with the 'k'). What are the best games for the device? I'm looking for quality family fun. I have two young daughters and, of course, my wife (the dancer rightly unhappy with the sticks). What would work for them? What games do you really like? Don't give me stuff that's forthcoming -- I can't buy that now.
As for me, I already have a bunch of games I want, but I'm open to suggestions here as well. I'm a fairly heavy PC/PS3 gamer, so I already have most multi-plats covered, but if you feel there are some forgotten 360 gems that I will have missed and should play, please drop me a recommendation or three. It will be appreciated. I play pretty much all genres.
Also, and I know this can be a hard question to answer, but I'm finding it really hard to justify paying for a Gold account. The more I look at it, the less I seem to be getting. Can any multi-platform owners give me some advice here? I just can't see how it is worth the money Microsoft ask for.
Other than that, thanks for dropping in. Any and all recommendations are very welcome.
