At first glance it seems that this is the big brother of Kinect Adventures! (Kinect) present on Xbox 360 as the default set of Kinect first name, not Sports (Kinect game). Either.
Kinect Sports Rivals turns your alter ego champion (facial recognition works pretty well) and immerses you in a world of competition, with a responsive and accurate gameplay. In local multiplayer, you can take on your friends, and online multiplayer, you can face ... your friends. Indeed, in no case is it possible to compete against other people around the world (at least at the time of writing this review).
The game reinvents sports and in this "new":
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
- You will face the waves Wake Racing (jet ski): the best mode of this game, the water is very beautiful, rewarding gameplay, not for nothing that we only saw it in the trailers and early videos.
- You will climb cliffs with escalation: there as a great surprise this game.
- You will aim the targets in a shooting game: disappointment, extend your arm and let it do the work.
- The football fans will love a new soccer: it is to be back again, but not in a good way. Indeed, this is a football game turn-based (Team 1 plays while Team 2 is not moving ... and vice versa).
- Try your tennis: Fashion pretty game but too many flaws that should have been resolved, especially in 2014.
- Bowling: fair activity known family games.
In summary, jet skiing and climbing are very good surprises, bowling is not bad either, for against shooting and tennis really not worth the shot ... Note also that only the jet ski and climbing are new.
Added to all this implantation of teams that could have been. They connect and divide the community and give new life to the competition. Rebels and rowdy players join the ranks of the Wolf Clan, while the proud and honorable join the Legion Eagle. And if you are too aggressive ruthless, you have the Viper Network. But first you must earn the respect of the captain.
