Forums - Microsoft - Xbox 360 Kinect Game Reviews!!!

Dance Central and Kinect Sports are doing very well. Kinectimals is doing better then I thought, and Your Shape's one review  is slightly below expectations. Everything else is sucking as expected.

My question is where all the Dance Masters reviews are. Seriously, I loved DDR.



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

Yeah. Im curious about Dance Masters too. its a day one launch but has until now been ignored by the gaming sites.





wow, do wii games get those ratings? i never expected this.



Being in 3rd place never felt so good

Pretty decent ratings I think for launch titles. 

I'll probably pick up Kinectimals for the boy today, and try to get Sports and Dance Central for the holiday parties coming up.



Seems to be doing decently then, though I'm glad I didn't wait this long to buy my 360.

I guess it's safe to assume that most reviews with high scores will have to do with fitness and dance games. Judging from the interest people had in fitness games on the Wii, there'll be a lot of potential customers for that. Yum, cash cow.

Can anyone tell me how Kinect works from 4-5 feet away? I have a small bedroom with a huge tv... :D

I can't tell you directly, but the tech reviews I've read would indicate that may be too little to work well for some of the launch titles.

Here's a view from another website, Kotaku, on Kinect in place and what space was needed.  The site has a ton of Kinect related reviews and info and seems pretty warm on the device so it may be a good place to get an idea about this.

Im not sure how credible some if not most game informer review scores are, it is a magazine tied to a video game retail outlet that has to sell some inventory... anyways I think I will be avoiding kinect just like I did the playstation move until I find a game thats worth getting it for (probably a no duh statment but I felt you all should know lol).  Kinect seems like it might take a few firmware updates and a few waves of games in order to produce its first truly killer app.  Sony has already included some major upcoming titles that will support move so it may be worth it to try those out, I already have a pseye but spending 80 dollars to find out youd rather play with a dualshock would be a bit dissappointing however.  I cant wait to see what microsoft has in store for kinect though, gonna be interesting and definitely looking forward to the first core kinect game whenever that may be coming.

Wow, I'm surprised at how well a few of these games are reviewing.



I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.
