    Let me start by saying this and Rock Band 3 stand as the best rhythm games ever made. Well, Gitaroo Man is up there too... ANYWAY, I played Elite Beat Agents after digging out my DS whilst being snowed into my apartment. Is there any FUN way to make a Elite Beat Agents-ish game for Kinect? I'm just not sure if the gameplay would lend well to using your hands, but at the same time, I want more creative rhythm games. Beat Sketcher for Move is a good example of using motion controls for a rhythm game, but I'm looking for something more crazy. Ideas anyone?

    I don't think there's any way to implement it on Kinect without it being horribly imprecise. They'd certainly have to dumb it down a lot (and it's not a terribly deep game to begin with).  
     
    Frankly, I kinda think that music rhythm games are on their way out, aside from the occasional crazy one like EBA that makes its way out of Japan.

    I think it's probably better suited for PS Move but after watching the quick look of Beat Sketcher, made me realize how difficult that would end up being. 
     
    I'll just patiently wait for Elite Beat Agents 2... even though it will never happen. :(
