Kinect Star Wars dated for the UK, but also includes a new dance mode...
Celebrate 13 years of Kinect Star Wars — the game that let you dance as Han Solo and swing invisible lightsabers in your living room.
Kinect Star Wars, a groundbreaking game released in April 2012 for the Xbox 360, utilized the Kinect motion-sensing peripheral to plunge players into the heart of the Star Wars universe.
One of the worst things to happen to Star Wars was it being exclusive to Kinect when PS Move could have been a better version because of "buttons" per Kevin with better tracking. And the controller looking like a light saber hilt. Or, had an actual light saber game similar to the dojo in Vader Immortal.
But the miming lies on the Microsoft E3 stage was icing on the cake of this garage. Wasn't even live gameplay. Just bad acting. Nothing ground breaking about this travesty.
WTMG's Leo Faria: "This piece wasn’t meant to say that Star Wars‘ gaming future is ruined forever, nor that there isn’t a chance for a good AAA Star Wars game to come out in the near future. I need to reiterate that, yes, I’m looking forward to Jedi Fallen Order. Then again, as a massive Star Wars fan, like most of you I miss the days when we would get loads of titles a year, each one focused on one specific feature of the franchise. I’d rather have a slew of smaller Star Wars games being released every year, some good and some not as good, than one big generic title being released every two years. These are always at the risk of being criticized due to typical AAA practices like expensive season passes, cut content, or microtransactions. Had Disney allowed for anyone, especially mid-range developers and publishers, to bring their creative and risk-free ideas to life, I’m sure fans would have rejoiced. And Disney’s pockets would most certainly fill up faster than nowadays."

I feel pretty dumb now for having been excited for this game when it was announced...
I'm looking forward to this game for the Dueling and Podracing game modes. I hear you can use items as a lightsaber and the game still tracks you.
I know it's not getting a ton of love here, but I'm kind of excited to play as a jedi...I guess my inner geek is showing.
Erm...what?.......what?
Sooo close MS! You were so close to tempting me to buy Kinect for my 360. Not now! This is just another POS Kinect game to add to the list.
I don't even know why i still own a 360. There's no exclusives worth keeping it for!
Really quite excited for this one. The pod racing has me sold though more than anything. This will sell very well of course
Pod racing will be sweet glad its finally got a release date looking forward to it.
