If you’re an Xbox fan who’s got the Kinect high-up on their holiday wish-list, listen up. Microsoft has announced seventeen game titles that will be available for their motion-sensing gaming peripheral “before the holidays.” Without further ado, the titles are: Kinect Joy Ride, Adrenalin Misfits, Fighters Uncaged, Sonic Free Riders, Kinect Sports, MotionSports, Your Shape: Fitness Evolved, Dance Central, The Biggest Loser Ultimate Workout, DanceMasters, Kinect Adventures (bundled with Kinect), Kinectimals, Game Party: In Motion, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1, EA Sports Active 2, Zumba Fitness, and Deca Sports Freedom. The first twelve games listed will be available on November 4 — launch day — and the remaining five titles will trickle-out through November and early December. Does anything on that list pique your interest?

    Like the idea of Kinect, just haven’t seen a single thing that makes “gotta” have it. I’ll wait on this one.

    I refuse to hop around my living room like a retard to play games.

    If I want activity I go play a sport or hang out with friends.

    If I want exercise I go to the gym.

    If I want to play a video game, I sit in my chair or lay in my bed and veg out.

    There’s a time and a place. These “track your motion and put you in a game” cameras were cool in 4th grade when you visited the science center on a field trip and “played” volleyball on a green screen.

      About 100 words to say, “I don’t wanna play this.”

    I am also getting this. Already pre-ordered my copy. I think this will be great for families. It will also be great for those who are shy about their bodies.

    It is amazing how far this has come. I like the idea of full body interaction and no controllers required.

    Also, for parents who want to get their children off the couch/computer and exercise, this will be great.
