Top 10 Kinect Games

Here are the top 10 kinect games for 2010; now that Xbox kinect has been around for a while there is a definite list of the most popular games for kinect.

Kinect has taken the gaming world to another level, you are the controller with a hands free body motion controller and you have so much fun with your family and friends or if you just want to play on your own, you can.

The top kinect game and top kinect sports game is Kinect Sports plays soccer, beach volleyball, bowling, table tennis, track and field, and boxing, it’s so much fun playing on your own, setting yourself goals, but when I competed against my friends it was so exciting. Kinect Sports really adds a nice dimension to your video game experience.

The second top kinect game is Dance Central will teach you how to dance the moves from the music videos and it will go fairly smoothly along a learning curve as well. The use of the technology is impressive and it is probably the best party game out there since Guitar Hero became known as a party game (Honestly this one is better, because anyone can just start dancing and having a good time). It works great among all ages and all backgrounds since everything is done with visuals and because of the no-controller feel anyone can easily pick it up and start playing (though don’t get me wrong, it is not easy to master).

Number three is Kinectimals and this is the top kids’ kinect game. A wide-eyed Bengal tiger cub cocks its head to the side and playfully peers at you. Memories of your first trip to the zoo come rushing back. Through the magic of Kinect that furry tiger cub is in your living room and about to become your best friend.

Number four kinect game is Dance Masters which features 30 tracks spanning club music classics, Hip Hop, R&B, Pop, and Techno, DanceMasters dancers can groove to their favorite songs, creating non-stop set lists and can also download new songs via Xbox live. The game also offers three game play modes for the ultimate dance experience: Dance, Lesson, and Status

Then the fifth on my list is Your Shape and Fitness Evolved. This game with the kinect technology puts your body into the game for the ultimate experience. You’ll control the game intuitively with your voice and body as you create your desired fitness experience. Choose a personal trainer to help you meet your specific fitness goals, take a Yoga or Martial Arts class, or play fun, family-friendly mini-games.

Coming in at number six is Adrenalin Misfit. This game reminds me a little of Crash Bandicoot, but a lot more fun to it. You get thrust into 7 unbelievable fantasy worlds with exciting boarding battles in amazing environments. Compete in cross boarding action through freestyle, time and collection challenges against boss characters each with unique abilities. Battle Boss’ from around the world growing your abilities and gaining more impressive boards each with their own special features. Win a race, steal that boss’ board and do battle to collect all 60.

Now number seven the Biggest Loser Ultimate Workout is a very good workout, you will not need to go to the gym again, offers more than 125 exercise moves focused on upper body, lower body, cardio, yoga, and cardio boxing. Players can select from the exercise moves to create a custom fitness routine or choose from 10 pre-set fitness programs such as Belly Buster and Boot Camp.

The number eight top Kinect game is Joy Ride, combines wild kart racing excitement with the effortless fun of full-body gaming possible only with Kinect for Xbox 360.

Number nine is the top action kinect game, Fighters Uncaged. Charge head first into the vicious world of illegal free fighting tournaments, where you will use every muscle in your body to battle your way to the top. Forced into a secret tournament, Simon must use what he learnt from his father, an ex-boxing champ as he faces off against violent combatants who will brutally unleash a range of mixed martial arts attacks to take him down. No guns. No blades. Your body is the deadly weapon Free the fighting machine in you.

The number ten kinect game is Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Playing as Harry, you are on the run from the opening sequence, fighting for survival on a desperate and dangerous quest to locate and destroy Voldemort’s Horcruxes. There are no more lessons, no more training. This time the danger is real. It’s time to fight your life.

Hope you have enjoyed my list of the top 10 kinect games, there are some exciting games coming up in 2011, like Star Wars, Michael Jackson’s- The Experience and Child of Eden that all look fantastic, please check out the link below to see the videos of the top 10 kinect games.

The PC has built a legacy of great video games over the last twenty years. Now that its 2010, its time to look back and view the best games that have come out. There are still a lot of games coming out every month, and its possible that a future game might make the list. At the same time, newer games are not holding up to some of these classics. So check out the list. #25. IL-2 Sturmovik – 2001 #24. Call of Duty – 2003 #23. MechWarrior 2: 31st Century Combat – 1995 #22. Deus Ex – 2000 #21. Warcraft 2: The Tides of Darkness – 1995 #20. Doom – 1993This game defined the shooting genre. #19. Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion – 2006 #18. The Secret of Monkey Island – 1990 #17. Company of Heroes – 2006 #16. System Shock 2 – 1999 #15. Battlefield 1942 – 2002 #14. Unreal Tournament – 1999 #13. The Sims – 2000 #12. Pirates Gold – 1994 #11. Age of Empires 2: Age of Kings – 1999 #10. Half-Life 2 – 2004 #9. SimCity 2000 – 1993 #8.

Baldur’s Gate II: Shadows of Amn – 2000 #4. Civilization IV – 2005Best turn based strategy game ever made, and its success comes from years or refinement based of the earlier versions of the game. #3. Myst – 1994Best first person puzzle based game ever made. Sadly, this is a game genre that is all but dead. Myst was a fascinating world that pulled in both gamers and non-gamers. #2. Star Wars TIE Fighter – 1994Space combat games are no longer popular, but that doesn’t stop this title from reaching the number two spot. #1. StarCraft – 1998Nobody can argue about StarCraft being the number one PC game of all time.

Mountain View and Long Beach, CA (PRWEB) March 16, 2010 HAPPYneuron, Inc., a leading provider of brain fitness solutions, in collaboration with SCAN Health Plan, today debuted its new ‘Vital’ brain gym. The brain gym is a key feature available on-board SCAN’s new SCAN Van, the nation’s first mobile resource center built specifically for seniors and caregivers. Based on scientifically developed, entertaining games targeting brain fitness, the Vital brain gym adds engaging, health-focused fun to the SCAN Van’s educational resources and other senior-focused on-board activities. The brain gym consists of more than 20 brain training games, each scientifically designed to target one or more of the 5 major cognitive functions of memory, language, attention, visual spatial skills and executive function. The HAPPYneuron Vital online brain gym is specially designed with seniors in mind, including large buttons for visual ease, easier games, no time pressure and other hits and tips to encourage the game play activity. Delivered through the SCAN Van’s wi-fi network to the on-board computers, the brain gym offers seniors the opportunity to educate themselves about the importance of brain stimulation in maintaining a vital and healthy brain with age. Seniors can take advantage of the Vital brain gym and the rest of the SCAN Van’s resources at no cost. “The Vital brain gym is engaging, educational and entertaining – a perfect addition to the SCAN Van,” said Sherry Stanislaw, vice president of operations at SCAN. “Specifically targeted at promoting the mental health of the senior community, HAPPYneuron is helping us deliver important health resources directly to seniors within their communities.” The new SCAN Van offers easily-accessible aging and health resources (in hard copy and online) to seniors interested in learning more about themselves and community services.

BrainTrain's New Software Features Video Game Interface and Working Memory Training to Build Reading and Learning Skills

Richmond, VA (PRWEB) April 20, 2010 BrainTrain, Inc., a company known for its professional brain-building software programs, is putting its neuropsychological expertise to work to help people with reading challenges. Its newest software release, “TNT Reading,” combines entertaining memory and attention building games with research-based reading exercises to make learning to read a rewarding, fun experience. Our country is in the midst of a literacy crisis. I have envisioned using a neuropsychological approach to solve this crisis for a long time, says Dr. Joseph Sandford, Clinical Psychologist and President of BrainTrain. It speaks very poorly for us that less than a third of U.S. students read proficiently. Sadly, an even smaller percentage get to experience the joy of reading for fun. TNT Reading could provide a real breakthrough to help these students. The TNT reading system is based on over twenty years of research on the specific skill areas that have the greatest impact on peoples ability to read. Academically these skills include letter recognition, the ability to discriminate sounds and to match letters to sounds. But what may be even more important are the cognitive skills people need before they can actually learn in any academic discipline – sustained attention, mental processing speed, and working memory. BrainTrain has built its business around developing software to help people with cognitive impairments caused by head injuries, attention deficit disorder, learning disabilities and developmental disabilities to train or remediate these skills. TNT Reading now takes what BrainTrain does best and uses it to take the company in a whole exciting new direction. TNT stands for Test n Train. The name reflects both its dynamite new approach and its design. The software incorporates a carefully structured pattern of testing and training at each level of the program. TNT Reading systematically tests a specific skill component at each level. If the testing reveals a deficit, the user immediately receives training. The learner must master each level before advancing to the next. While the exercises are set up to progress automatically, alternating between cognitive games and reading exercises, the trainer or teacher can elect to use only those parts of the system that are most appropriate for an individuals specific needs. This means that the software is simple to use but also allows customization. It can be used with adults as well as with children, and also shows promise as a tool for educators teaching English as a second language. A downloadable trial version of TNT Reading is available from the BrainTrain website. About BrainTrain. BrainTrain was founded in 1989 by Dr. Joseph Sandford, a professional computer programmer turned clinical psychologist. When he began his practice working with head-injured clients, it was natural for him to perceive how the computer could be an indispensable tool for helping them. His vision of using the computer as a way to improve peoples quality of life through cognitive enhancement continues to define BrainTrains mission. While BrainTrain is still a small family business, the software it produces is currently used in all fifty states and in over fifty foreign countries.
