You know what, this is a dumb game and it doesn't look very good. But theres an idea there. And a hint of proof that something like this might work if done right. Thats a big 'if', but shit, I think kinect needs more of this type of thing to explore what it can actually do.  
 
Good on them, I guess?

I didn't know Klepek reads Old Man Murray, although he needs to brush up. It's "Start to Crate", not "first..". The units are in seconds.

This is what I'd imagine poor people will look like playing games in the future.  Also, Ryan had the moves down much better despite his girth.  I like how he keeps a sweat rag in his pants, doubles as a "bulge" enhancer.

I see what they're trying to do with this motion control business, and I can respect the effort, but there's just no conceivable scenario I can envision where I would actually want to play video games in this way.

This looks like a real chore to play. I guess it's a good thing that it seems totally functional though.

@PhantomGardener: it has to use extra processing power from the 360 to function.

Game looks like it could be dumb fun if picked up on the cheap.

The game makes me sad. If it wasn't a kinect game, I would totally get this. The whole clockwork zombie mad scientist thing looks like the kind of B horror video game story I could get behind.

I appreciate Ryan has realized that "nonplussed" doesn't mean "unfazed". Next up is "bemused" not being a form of "amused".

A ton of people, including myself, have gotten these wrong quite often, but we can still fix this! Words have meaning!

I'm glad I never bought a Kinect. Right now I believe my Sega CD was a better peripheral, and games like this reassures that feeling.

Agreed.  At least the Sega CD had Working Designs games, Silpheed and Sol-Feace.

Hahah, couldn't have said it better.

If I'd have a Kinect for some reason I think I'd get that game anyway after a small price cut, just because it's different in a good/gore way.

This seems like a game I'd get extremely frustrated trying to play.
