Now, when I say my first impression ofSonic Free Ridersis not reassuring, that has way more to do with the game’s utilization of Kinect than it does with “extreme Sonic,” I swear. Don’t get me wrong, Sonic’s friends aren’t helping the situation, but this implementation of the tech screams “gimmicky” to me.
Who knows —Free Riderscould be an absolute blast to play and we wouldn’t even know it. One thing is for absolute sure, though: the part where you furiously swipe your arms back and forth to move through water will grow old insanely fast.
