Crash the boards.
2k Sports have confirmed - via a reveal of the game's final cover art - that NBA 2k13 will indeed be "better with Kinect."

News: Oh Good, NBA Baller Beats Does Come With a Basketball
We were starting to worry
Majesco's blend of sport and music, NBA Baller Beats, asks you to bounce an actual basketball. Not got one handy? That's cool, you get one in the box. NBA stalwarts Spalding will provide a replica ball with every game, while Panini has signed up to allow its trading cards to appear in-game. Ball-bouncing, card-trading,.. Continue Reading »
News: Majesco Announces NBA Baller Beats for Kinect
It'll have you dribbling
Majesco and HB Studios have just revealed NBA Baller Beats, a new basketball-music hybrid coming to Kinect this Fall. The official description puts as much emphasis on the music as it does the action, which makes us wonder if the game will take the rhythm action approach — hey, if Kinect Star Wars can do it... — but we..

Fire and brimstone
You can finally use Kinect to play God next year when Ubisoft launches Babel Rising on Xbox Live Arcade. The HD revamp of the current iOS hit will release sometime in 2012 and supports Kinect, with no mention of traditional control methods in the press release. Perhaps this could be Ubisoft's first digital Kinect-only title? It would certainly show a lot of faith in the sensor.. Continue Reading »

News: Ubisoft Announces Four New Kinect Quiz Games
Final answer?
Update: Ubisoft has informed us that Family Feud 2012 is not Kinect compatible, despite an earlier Gamestop leak pegging the game for Kinect. Original story: Ubisoft's locking down the licensed quiz show category on Kinect, with no fewer than four game shows on the way before the end of the year. First up we've got Family Feud 2012, followed by Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, Continue Reading »
News: A Motion Explosion is Coming to Kinect This Year
Majesco keeps it up
It seems barely a week goes by without a new Kinect game from Majesco, and here we have the announcement of Motion Explosion coming later this year. As you'd probably expect, it's a compilation of 12 minigames all about moving around, from dodge ball to tests of balance. It all looks very shiny and colourful at this stage, but we're getting slight tones of Game Party in Motion.. Continue Reading »
News: At Last, Bash Some Heads with Kung Fu High Impact
Kick some tail, too
It might not be quite the same as the kung fu game pictured in the early Kinect trailers, but Kung Fu High Impact is the closest we're going to get. A side-scrolling brawler that "literally transports you into the action" — so the announcement reads — PlayStation 3 owners might actually recognise the game as a more advanced version of Kung-Fu Live, a PSN download..

News: Guess What Kinectimals With Bears! Contains
Go on. Have a guess.
Kinectimals is about cats. Cats are not bears. What would Kinectimals be called if it had bears in it? Kinectimals with Bears! of course. The expanded line-up of cuddly characters will head to retail later this year, but considering the bears aren't yet available as DLC we expect the usual outcry from gamers who've bought every piece of downloadable content and have to fork out..

News: Relax, Deepak Chopra's Leela is Coming to Kinect
It's easy to relax hands-free
We first heard of this truly unlikely collaboration back at E3: Deepak Chopra, author of nearly 60 books on spirituality and meditation, is working with THQ, a publisher known for calm, measured games like Saints Row and Homefront. The fruit of this bizarre team-up is Deepak Chopra's Leela, an "interactive journey of the mind and body" for Kinect, due out in.. Continue Reading »
News: Go On a Fitness Adventure with Jillian Michaels
More Kinect adventures
Jillian Michaels is really working herself into a video game-related frenzy these days: she's already appeared on The Biggest Loser: Ultimate Workout and later this year her buns of steel will be challenging you to push yourself to your limits (we assume) in Jillian Michaels' Fitness Adventure. Rather than put you in a smelly gym, the game puts you through your paces in a new.. Continue Reading »
News: Majesco Will Make Your Kinect Chipmunk Dreams Come True
Bit of a niche market, though
Those famous chipmunks keep hammering the box office with more and more horrendously-named films: Alvin and the Chipmunks 2: The Squeakquel was pretty bad, but now there's a new film on the way, and it's getting a Kinect game too. Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked, due this Christmas, will let you sing and dance with the brothers and their friends The Chipettes,.. Continue Reading »
News: Join The Black Eyed Peas Experience Later This Year
Become Fergie, Will.i.am or the other dudes
Having paid tribute to the King of Pop with Michael Jackson: The Experience, Ubisoft is about to bring another authentic artist experience to Kinect with The Black Eyed Peas Experience.
