Kinect Cases Categorize Games Based On Activity Level
After a long day of playing Kinect, we're pretty sure Bryan felt like he got a decent workout in. Turns out that he would have known exactly how vigorous his gaming session would be if he took a look at the back of the game cases. We glanced at the back of a few retail copies and found a new category next to the ones we've seen for years.
As you'll see below, the "Activity Level" info box lets you know just how much motion your game involves. Kinect Sports is listed as "Active," while Kinect Joy Ride is listed as "Standing-Active." Can't imagine a blurb like that influencing a purchasing decision, but it's there if you're interested.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
