Out next year
Ubisoft's next Sam Fisher game, Splinter Cell: Blacklist, is coming to Xbox 360 with Kinect voice commands in early 2013.

News: Oh Good, NBA Baller Beats Does Come With a Basketball
We were starting to worry

1200 MSP
Our most anticipated Kinect game of the year — in fact, possibly ever — is nearly here. Crimson Dragon, the new game from the creators of legendary SEGA shooter series Panzer Dragoon, is confirmed for release in Japan on 13th June.

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.

Red hair optional
Not content with inspiring Kinect Rush: A Disney•Pixar Adventure with its past works, Disney•Pixar's next movie Brave will get its own Kinect-powered game too.
