You can side step(left or right) during any combat situation. I'm just waiting for reviews to come in and even if it gets good scores, I'm probably going to wait for a price. As you mentioned, there are plenty of others games that I would rather save my money for.  

Not bad for kinect. Combat looks repetitive though, not sure what they are doing to differentiate that. If it has a good story then easy 80 metacritic, otherwise I see it 60.

I am certain  there is a degree of "on rails" with it.  If you played it, can you state whether or not it is on rails the entire game, or more like on a rail network, with different hub points you can stop and navigate at.

i dont have Kinect so i hope Lionhead is hard at work on Fable IV or a new IP but please be RPG again not Fable 3 wich is more action than anything else.

hahhahaha oh man that was pure gold

Were those actors?

it doesn't look functional after like 5 minutes the guy completely missed about 10 times, i mean he hit the ground in front of him ffs.

when you look at a kinect title. If a controller would be easier, more accurate, and faster; then chances are it's a bad kinect game.

Kinect should be marketed exclusively towards children (Once Upon a Monster, Kinectimals, etc.) and fitness people (where Nintendo was successful).
