Kinect Fitness

Technology is wonderful sometimes. Microsoft's done a good job of integrating Xbox with the web, so I can go online at lunchtime, read about some games and choose which ones I want a demo of, and as soon as I turn the Xbox on once I get home, it starts to download. (If I hated the environment a bit more and left the Xbox on all day, I could come straight home to a new game, but I don't need to burn electricity that badly.) Today I thought I'd check out Kinect Fitness.

Sleeping Dogs

Sleeping Dogs is a sandbox game in the mould of Grand Theft Auto, except instead of running around a reimagined New York / Los Angeles, beating people up, you run around a reimagined Hong Kong, beating people up and trying to infiltrate the Triads for the police / trying to work your way up the Triads. Basically Infernal Affairs for the Xbox.

Only Kinect

Today I went to a thanksgiving party in Kowloon, where our host had hired the clubhouse at his apartment complex for the day, which meant we were some of the very few people in Hong Kong who had the space to set up an Xbox with Kinect.
