Kinect is set to get its own brain training game with the dubiously titled ‘New Brain Training: Answer With Your Body.’ From the video shown you will get to take part in a game of Pac-Man, or swot some balloons or even position your arms like the hands of a clock.
So far only a Japanese release date for the Bandai Namco title has been confirmed – 20th November.

Whilst it wont mean a thing to us, games like this that are generally classed as shovelware often sell by the bucket load (20+mil in this case, Carnival Games is another example).
Sony should really try to push for things like this. They’ve got the hardcore sorted (not at launch but still) but the hardcore aren’t gonna make Move a success. They need the casuals, and from what I’ve seen so far, there’s really nothing thats gonna push the casuals to buy Move. Bring Just Dance 2 to PS3 with HD visuals and a deeper control system along with a online library and market the hell out of it.

Isn’t that what SingStar Dance is? In fact, SingStar Dance is all the music games rolled into one isn’t it?

Singstar Dance looks like a quick add on to an already saturated brand. Just Dance is new and already proving massivel popular, I cant remember the last time a SingStar game got to number one.

@rob92
(probably slightly picky) but I think Brain Training was different when it launched so stands-aside from shovelware like Carnival Games and indeed Brain Training clones
Good point actually about Singstar
Just Dance has been probably the phenomenon of the year, and Although Singstar Dance looks the same, from the clips I’ve seen it seems to lack ‘a certain something’
Perhaps the Singstar brand has become a bit tired and omni-present

Train your brain, WITH PACMAN!!
oh its clear that this game was created by a genius and not just someone from Microsfot who thought it would sell well because of the included pacman game.
