This is Xbox: "Kinect Star Wars is a highly recommended game that makes great use of all the features of Kinect for the Xbox 360 and allows anyone to find their inner Jedi Knight. Galactic Dance Off might not be everyone’s idea of fun, but don’t let this put you off from buying the game if even for the action packed Dark Side Rising chapters and the spectacular Podracing simulation.
One of the best Kinect Games ever to grace this planet!
May the Force be with you..."
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."

WTMG's Leo Faria: "Kinect Star Wars gave me the opportunity to witness Darth Vader and the Emperor dancing to Deadmau5's "Ghosts n' Stuff" like a couple of teenage ravers on ecstasy. That's the best thing I never thought I'd ever see in my life."
lol I remember this. Almost as much of an embarrassment as the Star Wars Holiday Special
There defo wont be many comments in here 9/10 for a Kinect game. Cant wait to try this game.
LOL...
^ that's because it's a good game? There's not a lot wrong with it. You virtually swing your way through a large campaign, and have added mini-games to play to keep you entertained. The mini-games are so short, they're more like fun things to do co-operatively when you fancy chucking something kinect-y into the xbox.
Other than that, JEDI: Dark Side Rising is brilliant. It's very responsive from at least 6ft away as mentioned, great cut-scenes, great driving moments and use of targeting reticle to shoot down enemies with your own hands!
It's so much fun
an Xbox site giving this a 9....naaa they are not biased. Everywhere else it is getting 5's.
Say it with me...shovelware.
Hmm I think I'll use my money for something other than the piece of trash game. yea im not going to trust a full on 360 site for something like this.
seems the major sites have dropped the actual scores we expected for this game.
