OP is redeemed. 5.5 is well above a bad score, which is 3.0, so looks like rise of nightmare is a good game and a killer app for the Kinect. This further solidifies Kinect as the future of gaming.

A 5.5., that's OK, I've enjoyed many poorly rated games before and I think this is also going to be one of those games.

A year into the 360s life and it was Beaming with high quality exclusives, why should we make exceptions for Kinect?

About time Kinect get some good games. It does look fun, but the grandma trailer is one of the best trailers this year.

Kinect is something totally new to gaming so it should get more time to develop.

Kinect is better than all the other body motion controllers ever invented. Games like Dance Central and Child of Eden are both AA games.

[QUOTE="nervmeister"]A 6.0 from Official Xbox Magazine (OXM). Irony FTW. :Pnervmeister

what's the irony?

The publications geared torwards just one platform are usually more generous in review scores than those that include all systems. This time the roles have sort of reversed

not really. oxm has never been one of those.

2 positive reviews so far

Gaming Edge ( 83 on Metacritic )

"What I love most about Rise of Nightmares is that it actually works. Having finished the game I'm still very impressed with how responsive all the movement controls were, and how well they meshed together to perform a very cohesive experience."

Gaming XP ( 80 on Metacritic )

"It's the first adults only game for Kinect, and it's one that will test your nerves: flesh, blood and gore en masse won't please everyone. For Kinect, it's one of the best games available."

Don't worry, its SW, and people will find a way to hate on it. Never mind if its fun or not.

The GS review is out, it got a 5.5 and apperently there is some unknown hype thread for it that makes it a flop. The haters are just grasping as usual.

[QUOTE="Chris_Williams"]

its funny that kinect getting a decent game is shocking news...

MSgamer4lyfe

not really as Kinect Sports Kinectimals Fitness evolved all rated AE Good here, and Child of Eden and Dance Central rated very good AA here. Also have Gunstringer Kinect SPorts 2, Fitness Evolved 2, Dance Central 2 all coming out this fall, pretty good for a device only out for a year, SHOCKING that you think it doesnt get decent games...

Child of Eden is also coming out for the PS3,so you can scratch that one off of your list.

I think Rise of nightmares is going to become a Cult favorite game of the decade. xhawk27
Because of the "awkward motion controls" or the "shallow combat"? This is the best thread I've seen in months. Thank you.

It will not be good. IGN gave it a 4.0. And let's keep in mind that IGN doesn't give anything below a 9.0.
