Kinectimals adding bears

They should have made Kinectimals: Meet the Pyro Edition. You take the role of a pyro with a flamethrower and burn every one of those kinectimal in sight. Definite Game of the Year.

@zidan4000 Lol, the first gameplay video had that guy when he was picking his pet say: "Hey look! I think that's a bear! I'm gonna pick the bear!" it wasn't, but it's funny that they're actually gonna put bears into the game. Why not just put as many different types of animals in the game as possible, and remove the constant screaming of 'Bumble' saying: "DO AN EVENT WITH YOUR CUB!!!! NOOOOWWWWW!!!!".

"The game will also feature a new guide and a new plot in which the player and a cub explore Bear Island in the footsteps of a famous explorer in search of buried treasure. " Isn't that what you already do in it? GameSpot is really starting to sound as dumb as rocks, and more often than not they don't even look for spelling errors and problems with the pictures.

Every game sounds immediately better with that subtitle. Imagine.... Batman Arkham City: Now With Bears!, Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Now With Bears and of course, Zelda Skyward Sword Now With Bears!

Yes, that was this games biggest problem. Lack of bears.

OH BOY! Time to buy a Kinect!!!!!... is my sarcasm too obvious?

I had a bear in my house last night. I don't need them on TV too.

kinectimals now with bears is a very creepy name as it reminds me of something that i don't think that i am allowed to mention here.

I think we have the best name of 2011 people

This is just sad, but I will say that "Kinectimals Now With Bears" is a hilariously awesome name.

Awesome. Maybe one day my panther Susej will have amassed enough trust & courage to come trekking with me 'n' me Kodiak ! Great game.

It's genuinely sad to see the once legendary David Braben having to make stuff like this just to keep his company afloat. I'm sure that he, and millions of others, would rather this was news about the imminent release of Elite IV.

Someone needs to relay this information to Stephen Colbert immediately.

*shakes head in an embarrassed and unsatisfied way*

now i can play with bears. SWEEEEEEEEEEEET!

Teaching your kids that BEARS are cuddly pets! That's plain crazy talk. On second thought, they already jumped that shark with tigers. On third thought, jumping a shark while riding a tiger would be pretty awesome.

@SolidTy they are selling Kinectimals:Bears for 50 bucks. That's the one I want to buy since I don't have Kinectimals yet. I woudlnt' surprised some people bought both DVDs for 50bucks each though.

Fifteen dollars. I'm literally laughing hysterically right now !

Some of you don't seem to get it. Kinectimals is for children...or parents with children. M$ nor the developers care that you "hardcores" dont want to play it. It was not developed for you...

Oh...

This is exactly what I needed to see to push me over the brink into kinect owenership, I shall now spend the rest of my days rubbing virtual bears

Despite how people may feel about the game itself, the best part of the article was the last sentence of the first paragraph. "...for those who love the idea of playing with bear cubs but hate the idea of being savagely mauled." That was a true "laugh out loud" moment.

I don't see a problem with this at all. The description of a new guide & new plot on a new island, along with the new animal type seems like it would be worth $15 if you were really into the original game. I didn't like the original game enough to spend more money on it but it was far from the terrible game that the rest of you here (whom have probably never played it) are trying to make it out to be.

That appears to be way too overpriced for this. I do not believe the game was successful enough to be charging that amount.

yawn

that is M$ for you release a stupid dlc for a crappy game and way over charge it

@Septillize Dude Microsoft only cares about making money. As long as there Live users increase nothing else matters to them.

I'm sorry, but shouldn't Microsoft invest more money into hardcore games, considering that will not only sell better, rank better, and please the masses, but it will also make MS look better.

oh no.....they might of just found a way to make me play the game....

Aww, they're cute...but Kinect still sucks!

Is this really news worthy?

Oh yes yes yes, I am a big fan of bears, aside from puppies. I maybe too old to play it, but, gosh, I wanna hug.

@killerlavaman I would like to purchase your game. What might the release date be?

Make a game where I can box a kangaroo and wrestle a bear and i will be in

So? this is some sort of Super Kinectimals: Arcade Edition?

If that kid at e3 2010 said "Good doggy" to a tiger, what's she gonna say when confronted with grizzly? My money's on "Good Seagull".

Best news from microsoft in years. -_-

needs more pandas. wait a minute....

the kinect should have more games for the hardcore gamer. games like kinectimals: baby seal clubbing... i got nothing

Should they be teaching kids to play with bears?

@svaubel I think you just didn't know how to have fun with the games. I personally didn't play Kinectimals, but I used my Kinect from day 1, bowling, adventures, dance cetral and fitness are all good to play!

more kids overacting like in e3 microsoft conference lol?

Guess I can dust off the Kinect again, how many months has it been since I last used it?

I wonder if there'll be any interaction between this and the upcoming Mobile Kinectimals game.

LOL,I already forgot this game even existed.BTW I agree with Diophage,that would make the game at least a bit fun!

This game would be better if I could feed my pet (in gruesome detail) another animal.
