Sports Games

One of the factors of greatest interest to an avid video game is to find to follow the evolution of a machine according to those who are the ability to program a software company: in this case we speak of so-called games of the first, second or third generation. Today it's time to get their hands on the evolution of the much vaunted Dance Central , winning last year as one of the best launch titles for Kinect, to see if another year of waiting will bring little benefit necessary to improve a title features almost perfect.

We were left with amazement in his eyes before the first version of the title Harmonix: a system of highly accurate detection of the dance, a soundtrack of the first level, a graphic design very much in line with the times and time, but really fun. In light of what was really difficult to expect improvement worthy of the name, thus placing some question on the long awaited sequel.
It was therefore a blow to the heart to realize how everything (but really all) the good that we had been through has been significantly improved banner of "bigger is better".

The game play? Improved. The soundtrack? Improved and extended also to the songs first. The graphics? Very beautiful set designs. The single player game? In turn improved with the introduction of the career mode. The multiplayer game? Improved, with the chance to dance at the same time. Chapeau!

FIRST STEP: MAKING A DUTY KINECT

As you know well who has got to play the first episode, the main purpose of the series Dance Central is to put yourself in front of the video to mimic the steps of our digital alter ego, in order to be able to get the best score possible. Easy to say but hard to do, mainly because of more or less good inclinations of the player to the ball and the difficulty of the piece chosen. But not only the operation of Kinect is fundamental in this sense, and it is with great joy that we welcome the new detection system, far more accurately than ever before, capable of handling up to two people at once and at the same time damn ungenerous in detecting our performance worse.

In contrast to what happened before, in fact, this time the sensor will be able not only to detect in real time the presence of another potential player (all without interrupting a song), but also to analyze the Our movements in depth. Everything becomes clearer once you get off the track and addressed the first pieces: the z-axis movement (if we may so call it) this time is well represented, with both on-screen verification of our movements and our shape, no longer flat as before, but capable of restoring a clear three-dimensional feeling. All this brings with it a simple consequence: the movements to be made ​​this time are much more complex and realistic, with lots of videos wake of the hands which would facilitate the recognition of movements to be performed. A significant step forward in terms of realism.

The inherent part of the music becomes obviously essential in this kind of games, and Harmonix is ​​certainly not unprepared with more than forty songs, with their respective choreography, and with the ability to be able to download the entire soundtrack of the first episode . Just enter the code in the manual of the first game and redeem it on the live system in order to make the entire downloads of 250 megs expected. To be sure the operation is not free, but costs 400 Microsoft Points, a low figure required to have the convenience of not having to make a change disc, which becomes even lighter considering that the game is inside the box present a coupon of 240 MP (literally given away to the buyer).
