I don't know if I was ready for this

Edit I linked the wrong video, it was supposed to be another song (Han solo song), but too inconvinient to edit that with an ipad.

Yeah, saw this in Eurogamer's review. I consider the adverts for Kinect SW some of the most misleading ever in this business. The TV advert suggests you'll be freeform Jedi combating, yet the game is just a Kinect minigame collection with a SW skin. And to think, they dropped SW Battlefronts in favour of this... I think the $50 credit is to pay back for the game no-one wants.

Just reading some reviews now and the scores seem to be quite bad. Kinect works well for some situations, but not so well for others, hopefully the 2.0 version will be better.

If Lucas doesn't want to even talk about the abysmal Star Wars Christmas Special why on earth does he allow s*hit like this that completely ruins the little there is left of the Star Wars mythos.

My kid thinks he is doing the jedi shit his daddy can't believe the kinect hype but he is more than satisfied since his kid is having a great time.

And this 360 is cool, it has the R2D2 look and sounds. And I have zero issues with the dvd noise or fan noise.

If he likes SW Kinect he will probably like Power Up Heroes. I have seen it for $15 and my two boys really enjoy doing it. I haven't been able to play it due to my surgeries but from what I can see it responds well and while simple is a good little action fighting game. Conceptually I like it a lot, but definately a kids "Street Fighter." And you cannot go wrong with Kinect Sports and Fruit Ninja. If you like modern music (I don't) Dance Central 1/2 are must have's. Child of Eden is well liked as well and out of the Fitness Games I think Your Shape Fitness Evolved 2012 -- the new one -- is pretty good. Fun minigames, not enough but the ones there are mostly exactly the kind of stuff I was hoping for (mini games that are a challenge to get a high score) and the work outs are well done. Menus are awesome and the tracking is very solid. Have fun with your Kinect. Now go do some Fruit Ninja! $15 of pure fun! I am sure you will look at it and think of it as a casual game but to me it is the "Trials HD" of the Kinect family: arcade "casual" skin on an additively challenging game. Just know when to stop--I hurt my shoulder playing too much lol.
