My kids tink Kinect Rush is way better. Giving my kids a choice between Kinect Rush/Kinect Star Wars or Halo Reach/Uncharted? I think you know the answer. What gives anyone the right to say 100's families having fun with Kinect Rush and Kinect Star Wars are wrong? Because a guy in some Giant Bomb studio doesnt understand why anyone would appreciate these games doesnt mean they deserve these silly scores. Any game that lets me have fun with my kids and my mates is pure win. And Kinect Star Wars has been awesome at this. Just behind Kinect Sports Season 2 for best Kinect game yet. |
Maybe kids are different these days? When I was young we played so called 'hardcore' platformers etc a lot more then the 'motion controlled' lightgun mini games of the times. Movie tie ins certainly got a look at but never for long.
My kids are still too young to enjoy controller free gaming. My oldest is 2 and a half and is all about buttons. He's not really interested in waving at the tv. The primary reason to play a game for him is to hold any of the controllers in the house. He loves flying around in wii sports resort because the buttons do stuff, steering the plane is secondary. He's just as happy pulling the menu up. He's already into Rayman origins and Mario. He found the old gc controller, he thought that thing was awesome, so mario sunshine it was.
He does try the penguin game on wii fit now and then but it's a lot harder to grasp how to correlate your body movements to on screen action then holding something and experimenting with all the buttons. I guess that comes later. It's just a lot more natural to hold something in your hands and experiment with it.
Anyway are there any kinect games your kids keep coming back to? You know when we were kids we played mario and sonic for years. All the 'motion', movie tie ins and mini games were forgotten after a couple of weeks.
