Just bought this today. Without a doubt the best use of Kinect I've seen so far. It's beyond precise and it's extremely impressive and I played for an hour and a half straight before I stopped because my arms hurt. Also, it's way more fun if you pretend it's a Wolverine simulator.

I think this is the future of kinect. Arcade games that doesn't cost a fortune, but still is enjoyable enough to entertain a guest for an hour.

This is all I have played for 3 days straight, and I'm one for the shooting games. This game is perfect for anyone. Even better on kinect.

I got a kinect for christmas, you should've seen me and my 4 year old brother play this XD
It's really fun

@chipstix4 - EyeToy/Move creator Richard Marks had investigated 3D cameras like 3DV's ZCam years ago, but they decided to go with the Wiimote style controller instead, hence Move. There's no evidence to suggest that upgrading EyeToy to 3D would have been better than Kinect, since the tech is different. But yes, Sony could have had a 3D cam out years ago if they had confidence in the technology, but they didn't think they could take the concept much further, giving MS the opportunity instead.

I have this game already, it is insanely fun. Party mode ftw!

If you can think about it, Fruit Ninja can also be good on the Playstation Move. I mean, think about it. Using the controller as a sword. That would be really awesome.

@Lluminari have you played the phone/tablet version? At first it looks boring and all, but when you start playing it, you can't get of it :)

[Nipponing]

They should really make more XBLA Kinect games. Though I don't like to download games I can't get some money back for...

Okay, I'm going to tell you WHY NOT, because the only reason fruit ninja was a Hit and people loved it was because it was on a phone/tablet, people aren't seriously going to enjoy this as a household thing, this is like a Mario Party mini-game, but Mario Party has like 50 different kinds of these. This is too casual even for casual gamers.

[ultramegax]

Woah, bro. It's like the EyeToy all over again!

Fruit ninja is a good workout for arms! My favorite kinect game besides dance central for the momento!

[OBLIVIIONedits]

I remember the days when getting. 11 fruit combo would be a miracle :/ now 25 combos are nothing

[Hannibal]

I just love reading the comments that fanboy nerds write about these games. If the game doesn't involve shooting things then it's not a good game to them. This is a fun simple game that anyone can get into and have fun while getting a light workout. Seriously, you nerds could use the workout.

@knuckleSMAchreview2 yes right, a classic gamer looks soooo smart with a classic control, hours and hours playing and when someone talks to him an gets angry because he loses his score, it´s kind of rocket science...genius

[moikanos]

@mcxios That's nigahiga. And he's doing funny videos all around youtube :P
