Most helpful review Kinect - Sports: Season Two

hmmm not as good as season 1

By tokes (7 reviews) from Bodmin , 31 Mar 2012

[Highly rated reviewer]

the 1st season was great fun to play, and had lots to do, this just seems it was a quick hash up of other games that should of been included in the 1st season, to be frank, this shouldn't be up as a full game, only 6 events, and each are quite limited.

fun to play for a while with the kids, but even they got bored.

Not great :/

By a customer , 05 Mar 2013

Rather disappointing. Wasn't precise enough for my liking. I thought the games would be better, pretty boring to be honest.

Really Disappointing - But Worth a Try

By SuperGamer149 (4 reviews) , 04 Aug 2012

This game is surprising but disappointing. The sports on this game are not enough, I prefer the first Kinect Sports. This one is really rubbish compare to the first one. The Graphics are okay, the settings are not so much good. Do you know why ? - Because on the other Kinect Sports, you can use your controller to go wherever you want, but this game you can't. I'm actually so 'UPSET' that Microsoft has created a game like this one. What I'm saying is the game is quite good, its just there is not enough sports, people will start not playing it. Microsoft, what your suppose to do is encourage people to exercise on all kinect games. But at the moment your not doing it. People are getting Lazy now days - YOU MUST START CREATING MORE BETTER ENERGETIC GAMES. These games you are creating its not worth buying. That's all I am saying. I'm not saying you should Hate it, you must enjoy it & play it. Its just the Sports and some other things. I'm not saying to you's not to play it at all. But its just Microsoft.

Single OR multiplayer fun! Play online, beat mates' scores.. not KS1, but a great game still!!

By DaveJay81 (4 reviews) from Glasgow , 27 May 2012

The quotes 'not as good as the first one' fly about a lot.

Well.. take into account the 6 sports on offer and decide from there-in. If you're looking to have a bunch of sports games for the Kinect, then buy both of the Kinect Sports ones and stop there, unless you plan to get Virtua Tennis 4, Tiger Woods 13.. yeah.

But thats the point. If you're buying this.. fair play, you're not getting a simulation-based game, it's avatar based. But it's just as fun! And brilliant when playing it with your mates!

The darts is challenging.. the ski slopes are fun.. the golf's rather brilliant and not too complex, as with the tennis and I'll put my hands up to this.. I sent it back before I tried out the baseball and the american football, but ONLY because I intend to buy this!

Not as good as the 1st one

By IITiffII (3 reviews) , 20 May 2012

Golfing was quite fun, darts was a little too complicated, skiing was great and never played basketball, rugby again was a little poor.

Think it didn't live up to the first one, however it's still worth a wee rent - have a drink and get the party started with this
