Pixar’s films have the uncanny ability to appeal to all age groups. The simple plot lines crossed with beautiful animation charm younger audiences, while the underlying themes and humour also work just as well for adults. Pixar games on the other hand sometimes have a harder time achieving this, primarily because as it’s an interactive experience, the game needs to be able to be played by the younger audience, generally resulting in a streamlined platform game without much substance.
If I told you that a Pixar game was launching for the Kinect that allowed to interact with your favourite characters as you travel through five colourful worlds, you’d be expecting a collection of motion controlled mini-games right? Well, Kinect Rush: A Disney Pixar Adventure is here to prove you wrong! Featuring a perfect combination of varied gameplay including both open spaces and on-rails segments utilising all aspects of the Kinect, yet also providing an in-depth progression system, it might j...
Xbox Game Pass members, get ready for action as a variety of new titles for gamers of all ages are on their way. Starting today journey to the ancient Roman Empire with Ryse: Son of Rome; stop a cyberpunk conspiracy in Ruiner; fight two distinct flavors of zombie from the gory hordes in Dead Rising 2 to the 8-bit walkers in The Escapists: The Walking Dead; take an assassination contract in Hitman: Season 1, or leap into metroidvania-style action in Dandara.
I can't wait to play through Hitman! I played the free Xbox trial they had last year and I really enjoyed it.
Wow. Honestly Game Pass is unrivaled as a pro consumer service on console. I almost bought all the Hitman episodes and now I don't have to.
Yeah I've been tempted to get it a couple times. Glad Hitman is on Game Pass now. Xbox seriously got a home run got a home run with game pass!
You guys already don't have to pay for XBL! Let console owners have at least a little perk! haha
I have game pass and play both console and pc it's a good thing to have choice it's really good to pick up and play gears 4 on any system for example
Wow!!! I came this close to purchasing Ruiner!
Will definitely try Hitman.
Brian Dumlao: "When people look at the Disney name, they expect something that provides wholesome, fun experiences for the entire family. By extension, the same can be said for the Pixar name. Microsoft's Kinect for the Xbox 360 is seen as a family-friendly way for kids and parents to enjoy games that require more motion. Common sense would dictate that having them all together on a Kinect game would generate an exciting family-friendly game. Now that we have Kinect Rush: A Disney/Pixar Adventure, we see that the game is a solid endeavor that's too short."
Impulse Gamer: The latest Kinect game to land on the XBox 360 is Kinect Rush: A Disney Pixar Adventure which stars some of the most memorable Pixar characters from Toy Story, Cars, The Incredibles, UP! and Ratatouille in this interactive game made for kids.
Best of all, with the Kinect technology, players can "scan" themselves into the game as they become one of the characters from these movies such as Buzz Lightyear, Mr. Incredible or that chubby kid from the film UP! as they engage in a variety of fun mini-games.
I have cousins and friends that will go nuts for this. And the truth is that yes while i enjoy the likes of Bayonetta say or Gears and Halo, i really do enjoy Kinect as well
