Great game. The intro is laughable but that's not what matters here. Kinect picks up the stuff for this game well. Definitely worth $10.

@Blind_Evil: After playing about 2 hours of this last night I can say that it would not be fun on a controller.

Can you try lining up the bottom of the guys' composite frame to the bottom of the game footage? I know it's a tiny issue but it's kind of disconcerting when they're floating there without the rest of their legs.

Anyone else getting very subtle but noticeable scan lines? I've seen it in a few other recent videos too.

A new game by Suda 51 for $10 is a steal. This looks great, an actual reason to get a Kinnect.

I get the feeling they were playing it slightly wrong... Like they were suppose to throw balls rapidly instead of throwing one and stare at the screen and that they were suppose to use the lock on constantly...

You gotta be kidding me. There are precisely no reasons to get a Kinect, what this game has going for it with "do the throw motion...do the raise both arms motion...repeat indefinitely" does not constitute gameplay.

Suda51 is always wonderful, but this...yeah no thanks, I'll keep on anticipating Lollipop Chainsaw.

Kinect has some severe issues with sensing movement on the y plane. X and Z seem to be fine but it is horrible when it comes to games where you have to move your hand or body forward and back. Child of Eden had this issue at points but atleast that game tended to auto-pause your game as soon as it noticed something was up. I really like the Kinect idea, but I think MSoft owes it to us to upgrade it and give early adopters a discount on whatever comes out next.

Think the game needs a touch more of the Japan brand of crazy (or FMV a baseball player on the story bits instead of illustrations). Coincidentally watching the film the Devil's Hand on netflix & if more of this game was in that movie it'd be much more entertaining.

Who the hell is encoding these videos anyway? The interlacing looks goddamn awful. It's 2012, we can make progressive video now, it's okay.

I can't be the only one that's upset that I Love Mondays has become a joke. it's been three weeks now with so many quick looks that we said to come in I Love Mondays that just don't happen. I understand that the new move is tough but don't tease us.
