Yup, Dead Space 3 will have Kinect voice control options similar to Mass Effect 3. And like the co-op experience, just because the feature is there doesn't mean EA will be trying to stuff it down your throat. With that said, ... more
I was having a hard time remembering whether or not Smart Glass is cool, because I feel like I haven’t been primed on the application since Microsoft’s E3 conference -- I’ve already forgotten most of the nea... more
I have a bit of a sordid history with the Fable franchise. Despite the now-infamous promises it never delivered on, I absolutely adored the first Fable, as what was delivered was a finely crafted game, and one of my favorite ... more
Forget game of the year, Hairy Penguin for Kinoct is going to be the game of all creation, featuring innovative new gameplay such as "waving your arm a bit" and "maybe some jumping up and down." The latest screenshots showcas... more
This year's E3 has been home to a number of exciting announcements but none more exciting for me personally than Dance Central 3. I had my doubts they'd make a third, as I wondered where the series could truly "go" after the ... more
With over four million units sold across the world, you knew this was coming. All the same, I am EXCITE (yes, as in I am now the literal walking embodiment of the word "excite"). Dance Central 3 was just officially announced... more
Seems like Square Enix is going to have one strong year with all of the games they have on the horizon. And now they can one more thing to their ever expanding list with Mini Ninjas Adventures. The Xbox Live Arcade Kinect gam... more
Remember a long while back, when Harry Potter was showcased for Kinect? No? Hardly surprising, since it looked like every other Kinect game. Well, it seems as if we're going to get the on-rails, arm-flapping, licensed cash-in... more
It's humorous to see these newly announced pre-order incentives for Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor. So far, everything Capcom has shown points toward a rather bleak-looking game filled with death and destruction. You know what ... more
Last week we told you Namco Bandai was working on a Dragon Ball Z game for Kinect. It basically sees you playing as one of 50 characters going through the storyline where you can perform hundreds of moves like the infamous K... more
Okay, Twisted Pixel. You got me with your apostrophe placement. I can't not crack a smile upon seeing the name of the new downloadable content for The Gunstringer, "El Diablo's 'Merican Adventure." In this add-on, El Diablo ... more
Tara Long and I teamed up once again to give you a look at Steel Battalion: Heavy Armor. It's the first major Kinect game that uses the actual controller, meaning that you can actually have total freedom when it comes to the... more
I have a love/hate relationship with the Kinect. At best, I've used my Kinect to shout at Netflix when feeling incredibly lazy or when I've built up enough motivation to workout with Your Shape: Fitness Evolved. It's also fu... more
Most core gamers saw Microsoft’s Kinect sensor and scoffed, dismissing out of hand its potential for use in anything but kids’ games and casual experiences. The people at EA Tiburon, however -- having already impl... more
Once Upon a Monster came out last month, and now has some DLC coming out which adds a new chapter to the storybook game. Starting November 22 and for 400 MSP, you can shake your booty with all of the usual Sesame Street gang,... more
Three weeks after its initial release, Kinect Sports: Season Two has just come out with the first piece in its monthly add-on content. Challenge Pack #1 features a new game mode for each of the six activities already include... more
Yoostar 2 was an interesting concept. Using the PlayStation Move camera or Kinect, players could insert themselves into, and reenact scenes from their favorite films. Lacking in its execution, the game didn't live up to the b... more
At first glance, Rapala for Kinect sounds like it would be the same old song and dance. Motion controlled fishing game? Yeah, been there done that. But after watching the trailer, it has come to my attention that you can pun... more
I'm fairly certain there has yet to be a Cabela's-branded game that wouldn't be an absolute blast to play while trashed. This looks to be true of Cabela's Big Game Hunter: Hunting Party for Kinect, which was just announced fo... more
The Kinect answer to Wii Sports has a new title coming out. Kinect Sports: Season Two will be hitting shelves in October and the team behind the new game is demoing part of it at PAX this weekend (no awkward football bro... more
Fruit Ninja Kinect is a game where you murder innocent fruit in the name of fun. And now there is more fruit slaughter (fruiticide?) with the new Storm Season DLC. Along with a few new achievements and backgrounds, players wi... more
There's been many things that the Kinect has been made to do that it wasn't designed to. Some were fun. Some were silly. Some were interesting and have potential. And one would perhaps be called "blasphemous" by some. The Nat... more
There's not a whole lot about Kinect that intrigues me, but Powerup Heroes certainly does. While other motion controlled fighters have opted for realism, Heroes turns your avatar into a superpowered hero out to rescue the wo... more
If you woke up this morning, praying to Lord God Almighty that there would be some new Star Wars Kinect screenshots on the Internet this morning, then your God is just and he has a plan for us all. Here are some screenshots.&... more
Rise of Nightmare is a decidedly M-rated game, there's no question about that. The first-person Kinect-exclusive action title has you waving your arms around to slaughter zombies and ghouls in a variety of obscene ways -- wit... more
[Update: Major Nelson has posted that the console also makes R2-D2 sounds when you turn it on or open the tray. It also has "Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you’re my only hope" inscribed on the disc tray for the first time (Th... more
Oh hey, check it out! In addition to the announcement of brand new songs for Dance Central, Harmonix sent over a positive slurry of brand new screenshots and character art for the game. There's a little something for everyone... more
I am the opposite of sold on Joy Ride. Un-sold? Soldless? Whatever the term would be, driving with Kinect just doesn't seem like it will be as much fun as, say, driving with any form of wheel-like object in one's hand. I thin... more
