Angry Joe grabs his Kinect and climbs into the cockpit of Steel Battalion once again! Does it live up to its thematic older brother? Or is it the black sheep of the family that no one wants to talk about? I think you know the answer.
Also, I fixed the Box Art. Now its helpful to the potential buyer.

Does anyone here know a game with really emotional deathsin a war like this game but with actual quality
Spec Ops: The Line.
Using kinect for this kind of games is totally bad idea . kinect can’t just read your movement to well like Wi. when I tried the demo I was having a same problems like Joe .
I wanted to buy it but after playing a demo and watching a review I changed my mind however the story might be good but kine ruins your fun hmm not sure if I am spelling it correctly :].
LOL loved this review especially in the end!!! Fucking legendary!!!
KILL EM JOE!!!
Love the new box art. It better represents the game.
Unless it’s an interactive game like Kinectimals, or a dance game like Dance Central, Kinect is pretty much guaranteed to be useless. It was Microsoft’s sad attempt at piggybacking off of the Wii motion craze (which had even more problems during its launch) halfway into the current generation’s life cycle. Microsoft didn’t know if it would work or not, none of the developers had any clue how to program for it, but they pushed it out the door and onto the market anyway.
It’s our generation’s 32X, in other words: An overhyped empty promise.
And this game was the exclamation mark at the end of the childish toilet joke that is Kinect.
I’m sorry to say Joe, but when they promised this on the Kinect I just knew it was going to be crap. And I was right. I bought into the hype just as hard and hit the ground just as you did. I have since traded in my Kinect. It’s just useless for any real gaming and unless Microsoft takes it back to the drawing board and starts from scratch, I can easily say that all of the games oriented for, and sold to real gamers will always be the highest quality of garbage.
Here’s to whatever childhood memory of mine that they’ll crush next.
Better With Kinect.
God i’m happy with my Playstation
I knew kinect was going to fail from the day it was announced. Never bought it, probably never will.
omg you mentioned MWO! you earned more love from me!
This review is wrong.. the game is actually pretty good.
Buy it today!
