5.0 out of 5 stars Must own game to show off your Kinect (still great w/o Kinect), June 14, 2011
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Child Of Eden (Video Game)
Child of Eden - The good
- Beautiful graphics and audio soundtrack
- Immersive Kinect controls
- Use of up to 4 controllers as vibrating force feedback
- Well-designed shmup (shoot'em up) with intricate gameplay-scoring mechanics

Child of Eden - The not so good
- Shmups tend to be shorter games than other genres
- Menu navigation can be confusing because it sometimes switches between Kinect and controller
- sitting position does not control as well as standing (higher Kinect sensor placement preferred as well)

Menu navigation can be with either the Kinect of the game controller. Menu navigation is a little confusing because it doesn't seem you can go completely controller-free to navigation. It appears you can but often the game seems to switch to controller mode and you have to press a button on the controller to switch back to Kinect menu control. In general, the menus are a little confusing in terms of selecting... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Kinect Game yet!!, June 15, 2011

This review is from: Child Of Eden (Video Game)
I received the game from Amazon yesterday and all I can say this is a must buy. I have not played the game without the Kinect (you do have the option to do so). Also I have the Kinect on top of my DLP (the first review said that it works better if it was placed higher).

This is the best game out for the Kinect yet (6/14/11), period (Sorry Kinect Sports, your 2nd best now).

The Graphics are simply amazing, easily a 10. The controls were very good, and the sensor picked up and tracked my arm movements very easily. The pace of the game was great (and some parts are frantic).

You use your right hand to target your laser and after you lock on up to 8 targets a quick flick of your wrist fires the laser. You use your left hand to target and fire a rapid fire gun that can shoot down enemy missiles that are fired at you. When you raise both hands you unleash a powerful bomb that basically nukes everything on the screen. There are blue balls that are... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars It's ok for $25, July 10, 2011
= Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Child Of Eden (Video Game)
Was expecting more based on all these good reviews. It's basically flapping your arms around as you're shown computer art; more specifically flapping your right arm most of the time and waving around your left arm if you see purple. It's ok, glad I got it for $25 in the BYOG1F sale at best buy. Other kinect games (e.g. kinect adventures, kinect sports, and dance central) are always an instant hit with guests when they come round, but I'm not sure this will go down as well as it's less intuitive and needs some explaining -- and even then it's not going to be everyone's cup of tea.
