[Reasonable]

I normally never argue scores - it's their view after all - but the Joyride score is just wrong.  No driving game, no matter how lightweight or fun, should get that kind of score with such a terrible - and I know because I've tried it now - control scheme.

Kinect has no place as the main input for a game involving driving and to score it 7 is maddness.  It's a 5 overall.  It's also a pity, because if MS hadn't pushed Kinect on the title I think it would have been a nice 7 to 8 fun racer - but not with fundamentally flawed input.

Nothing else stands out as being too much of an outlier.

So you've played the game enough to make such a statement?  Considering your statements, that would be a Reasonable expectation . . .

Ignore him, he's rarely if ever "reasonable" when it comes to anything 360

Actually I own one now, so we'll have none of that.  I've never spoke badly of the 360 out of bias, I've just clipped the wings of fanboys posting rubbish in PS3 threads.  Now I can clip wings on both sides.

As for Joyride, are you arguing it works well with Kinect?

Darth - I can see a kid liking it, and maybe that's the aim, but the fact remains the kid would be able to drive better with a gamepad.  The game just doesn't suit the controller.  If you play Joyride then immediately play something like Kinect Sports the difference is immediate.  Sports feels right with Kinect, Joyride just doesn't.
