Microsoft Leaves Kinect On The Road |
Listed in: News Tags: joy ride, joy ride turbo, kinect, Microsoft
Remember Joy Ride for the 360? Me neither. It was a little racing game for casual gamers that came out alongside Kinect back in 2010, and while it looked nice and didn't have any major flaws, it was simply mediocre. Little more than a ‘proof you can do a racing game with Kinect’ title, it’s now getting its own sequel, ‘Joy Ride Turbo, that will be hitting Xbox Live Arcade soon, and oddly enough, it will have dropped all of its Kinect support.
The first Joy Ride for Kinect
It will include a stunt park where you can jump cliffs and get shot out of a cannon. Sounds fun. It will of course have online multiplayer, which I always seem to enjoy with children’s racing games.
The lack of Kinect support does make me wonder if Microsoft are going to slowly ditch the device for other titles; it’s exclusion can only imply that the audiences weren't happy with it for the first title.
Who knows? And that’s the answer I also have for the release date, although it will probably be out during the summer holidays.

Dropping Kinect would be a terrible idea.

It's likely that this is just the original game retitled.
