Kinectimals

Kinectimals would be a good game for young children not the young adult or teens maybe even Pre-Teens. The game is designed for the young mind it is a very simple concept with almost no story line. Other than the hunt for some giant golden statue of a tiger or some other big cat there is no story line. The point if the game is to just to pet and take care of your big cat cub. Which considering the only consequences for not bathing the cub is it just gets dirtier even the point of the game seems almost none existent. You start off with about six cubs to choose from. But as you progress you unlock more cubs to play with. I would suggest this game to families with young children.

Kinect

The Kinect is a complete remote free interface with your X-box. I have personally been following the Kinect since it was still being called project Natal. I have recently bought the Kinect and played it extensively. There is absolutely no lag what so ever between your movements and your player on the T.V. Kinect Adventures is the game that comes with the Kinect when you buy it. It is a good game to start off with and is a great party game to play with your friends. I found one the most innovative features was the fact that you could walk off screen at any point in time and another player could walk on screen and the Kinect would automatically sign that person in under their profile. This allows for more play time instead of having to pause the game sign out then sign back in under your profile. Another cool feature is when you become tired and lets say put your hands on your knees to try to catch your breath a little reminder will pop up saying "Tired? Sore? Take a break and relax for a while" The fact that the program can recognize when you are sore is amazing. There are only a few games out for the Kinect now but I can tell that Microsoft has made the next generation in gaming technology that will launch the Game Console even farther into even more technological advances.

Halo Reach

I know that this game review is late but I just got on and just had to review this game. A great ending game for the Halo series, but I am 90% sure that Bungie is not done with Halo yet. An awesome story line in terms of being full of action and being fast paced. But I could almost always tell when a character was about to die or become trapped or blown up or shot or just flat out wrecked. I believe that the tribute to Master Chief was good. At the last cut scene of the game when the Pillar of Autumn is flying away hold the right thumb stick to the right and you will see the Chief in a cryo chamber getting ready for Halo Combat Evolved. Also the tribute to Cortana was nice as well. In the game you have to transport an AI and that AI is none other than Cortana. The online play is great as well almost all of your favorite game types from Halo Three are in it I will go more in depth on this subject in my next post.

Hey this post is for the people coming from the old site. This is our new blog, the old one's URL address wasn't what I wanted so I'm going solo from soccerbay and making the Weekly Gamers. I will try to have at least on new post every Friday but no promises.
