I just can't see Kinect for any kind of real gaming...I mean just look at the Star Wars game...hot mess that is lol

gamingdroid5162d ago (Edited 5162d ago )

Then you aren't looking in the right places if at all.

Fruit Ninja Kinect, Kinect Sports and Dance Central is a small selection of great games for Kinect.

Kinect voice control was pretty awesome for Mass Effect 3 and I expect Ghost Recon to be pretty nice too.

mcstorm5162d ago

I agree plus add forza 4 and halo cea to this list too.

I might pick this game up for my 360 as it looks like it could be an interesting game with the kinect side of it.

Im also looking forward to seeing fifa and nhl kinect use too as i think ea have been clever in the way they have used kinect for tw13 and its been done in a different way to other developers and i can see the same with fifa and nhl. Ive said all along kinect is a very good device and has lots lf different way it can be used but it is up to the developers to come up with the different ways. Although i did not expect ea to start leading the way with it but im all up for that lets hope they can now work on a shift game to use kinect too.

@mcstorm

It is definitely an area of technology that is young and needs a lot of refinement to get the proper experience.

Just look at our controller evolution, from the days of knobs to 4 face buttons, 2 triggers, 2 bumpers, 2 analog sticks and a d-pad. It only took several decades!

I'm really looking forward to Ghost Recon and Project Draco (it's real title is crimson something or another).

'I just can't see Kinect for any kind of real gaming...I mean just look at the Star Wars game...hot mess that is lol'

LOL @ pretending Kinect Star Wars has ANYTHING to do with Tiger Woods 13. Talk about faulty logic. That's like claiming when ANY console game is bad that EVERY other game on the console MUST be the same experience.

Kinect Sport Season Two not only does golf already, but I'll put it against ANY golf game EVER as one of the funnest I've EVER played. If EA even came close to the pick and play controls that K.Sports pulled off then Tiger will finally be accessible to everyone.

I'm actually picking it up for the 360 this week. I bought the last two for the PS3 with Move. The ones before that were great on the Wii.

I work at Best Buy and although the game is solid and fun to play, navigating the main menu and using the in game menu sucks ass. It's not as easy as Dance Central or other games where you have to "swipe". The voice controls didn't work, not sure if they deactivated it somehow because it's so loud in there. But if they did work I am sure it would be easier to use.

It Seems Easy, But Tiger's Greatest Feat is Damn Hard in a Video Game

Kotaku - In no rec league could I ever throw a no-hitter. Alone on a basketball court I'd need half an hour to score 69 points—and a trampoline to dunk. But I can do all of those things in my living room. If video games give us the conceit of doing the impossible, only now has one demonstrated how hard that really is.

Very tempted to get SSX for $10.

guitarded774854d ago

Well worth $10... not sure it was worth the $60 I paid for it.

Also, is it messed up that I already have everything on that list? I'm getting better at not buying games and waiting for sales because it feels like a kick in the nuts when I see a game I payed full price for at $10.

TrendyGamers4854d ago

A little messed up, it's a lot of games!

Yi-Long4854d ago

... while we in Europe also get these deals, yet SSX is 15 EURO, which means even though it's on sale for us as well, it's still twice as expensive as what the USA gamers have to pay for the same game...

.... which is obviously ridiculous.

guitarded774854d ago

@ Yi-Long

I have been sympathetic to gamers in other countries getting price gouged for a long time. I think it sucks that your prices are higher, especially while your currency value is inflated. Check out US amazon.com and see if they ship to your country. I have friends in South America, Europe and elsewhere that order from there to get lower prices. Some still have to pay import duties, but it is still cheaper for them go the extra mile.

JohnApocalypse4854d ago

Dam, no sale on the Battlefield 3 map packs

InsaneGam3r4854d ago

There's sale on the Premium Membership.

Relientk774854d ago

All those games and DLC on sale, sweet

TotalSynthesisX4854d ago

EA is being nice?

...Wait a minute.

Will be picking up LBPK for 10 dollars. This might be the closest PS3 users will get to a steam sale on PSN.

A step in the right direction, Sony.

@Nitrowolf2, I have the Jak & Daxter and Ratchet & Clank collections on Disc, but if I didn't that would be a great way to get into those games.

Unfinished Swan was on sale during the Holiday Essentials sale and I missed it, so this time I don't plan on doing that again.

Nitrowolf24862d ago

The Unfinished Swan – Regular $14.99, Sale $7.49, PS Plus $3.75
Ratchet & Clank – Regular $14.99, Sale $7.49, PS Plus $3.75
Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy – Regular $7.99, Sale $3.99, PS Plus $2.00

Already have the colelction, but since I'm Plus those prices are just to good to miss.

calis4862d ago

So you're buying a game you already have?

KangarooSam4862d ago (Edited 4862d ago )

Those are the three I'm planning on getting :P

I think. lol.

Great sale!

Edit: LBP Karting looks fun too, though. Not sure whether to get LBPK and US or US, R&C, and J&D. I need a sale where all four of those cost $15 haha.

Nitrowolf24862d ago

@Calis

Yeah I am, $2.00 is dirt cheap, it'll be nice to have the extra digital version.

MikeMyers4861d ago

Some good deals. Definitely getting The Unfinished Swan.

P_Bomb4862d ago

EliteDave934862d ago

LakerGamerEnthusiast4862d ago
