Haunt is definitely one of the best kinect games out but I know alot of people are leary to even try it.  The only reviews I could find the biggest argument is pretty much the length and they would've like a little more interactivity.  We would be seeing a 8 or 9 easy kinect game that's not dancing.

If you haven't bought it (800pts) why not?

I'm just finishing my review of the game for VGC. I love it.

I was adding the information for it here, it looks like a really interesting game! May even have to dust the ol 360 off and pick it up! I trust Eurogamers score, even though they seem to give a lot of 7's.

It really is, I can only recommend it. Look out for my review. ^_^

great :)

btw eurogamer biggest peeve was length which to me is kinda crazy considering its an xbla a game but what ev.  they would have also like to seen a little more interactivity.  i sorta agree with that. maybe a little more things to do to find the clippings perhaps but all in all it might arguably be the best non dancing kinect game to date sorry disney lol...  of course the fanboys will flame it just because it's kinect but it really is a good game.

I think the length is fine, the problem is that there isn't much reason to come back to it, other than doing everything all over again. But walking for four hours is plenty for me.

The amount of interactions didn't really bother me, but I would like to see a bit more flexibility in how things can be done. Some of the fighting is very static, and it would be nice to have more dynamic interaction in that regard. Being able to interact more wouldn't be a bad thing though.

The demo was so slow it drove me a bit crazy(constant pausing to explain the obvious). Great for kids but I didn't have the patience for it.



Playing: Borderlands(great co-op,HUGE amount of content),Too Human(better late than never lol),Saints Row 3(Penetrator ftw),Minecraft 360,Harry Potter Lego. 

Patiently waiting for:  Tomb Raider, Borderlands 2

well its holding above 70 on metacritic so it has a official stamp of quality. Might give it a try.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Anyone who's interested can now read the official VGC review.

You left out a 'Not yet but will' option. Game if pretty fun and controls well. Will pick it up soon.

Will try the demo (as I do most kinect games)
