How do you make a Kinect Twister?

Easy, you play regular twister while the camera watches.

Doesn't a copy of Twister run for like $9?

It may sound strange.... but why would I want to play a Kinect version of a game (requiring an expensive buy in) when I can actually play the real thing in the exact same spot for $9?

Doesn't seem like a sound investment in your home entertainment except for novelty purpose.

It's just a brand... it's much easier to sell a random game with an established brand attached even if they're only loosely related.

@akeso The Kinect Twister game could be an XBLA title. Meaning, 10-15 bucks. You don't even know any of the mechanics yet and any interesting 'twister advancements' they could make. Make your judgments when they charge 50 bucks and it's horrible. Sheesh.

I image EA will be pissed off... a round of applause for Majesco is in order.

Some things are just left best in their original form.

I really hope they can pull this off. Brainstorm people, brainstorm.

And soon we'll be playing Monopoly on a console. Oh yeah there is one already.
I just don't get it though. Unless they do something drastically different. Why? Why?

@Baron Samedi
I had a copy of Monopoly on the SEGA Genesis, back in the day. It's a lot of fun, actually, and easier to set up (it takes like fifteen minutes to set up a game of Monopoly, or less than one to set up the console) plus it doesn't take up space on a table/floor and requires no cleanup.

Twister, on the other hand, is pointless. Why translate it to a game format if it's still gonna take up the same amount of space, and the game ALREADY had a 30-second setup time?

With a touch screen table Monopoly could be a lot easier to play with computer assistance.

unless the game projects a virtual image of a twister mat it is pointless. virtually every game on kinect is pointless, why haven't they made a home run derby game yet? seriously. kinect is garbage, not innovative at all.

Is it just me or is that a really fast turnaround?

As a gamer I see the complete waste of this idea. As a married pervert I see a very good opportunity to invite the hot blonde over that lives two doors down.

"I just bought this new game that Dena and I have been playing non stop. Would you guys like to come over and try it out?"

"Aww man! My husband is out of town!"

"I know. I know..."
