CVG - 8/10

Rare has overcome nearly all preconceptions of motion control - Rivals is responsive, accurate, deep, reliable and well integrated. It just needs the space.


Destructoid - 7/10

Kinect Sports Rivals has an inexcusable amount of wasted space with bowling and soccer, but the other four activities are engaging, and the world is charming and appealing enough to win over most of the gamers who enjoyed Wii Sports. If you have a family who likes getting together and play games like this, go ahead and pull the trigger -- all other curious parties should wait for a sale to compensate for the weak activities.

DigitalSpy - 3/5

Despite their execution, the story and creation suites contribute to what is already a ton of content, with online leagues, challenges, unlockables and multiplayer modes.

It's a package that rivals the very best party games for volume, so ultimately when the whistle blows and the action is go, there's plenty of fun to be had with Kinect Sports Rivals.

IGN - 7.3

Kinect Sports Rivals isn't a knock out, but it does enough well that I'm excited for Kinect's future.

Press-Start - 6/10

Whilst it looks amazing and incorporates incredible tech, Kinect Sports Rivals is largely a confusing experience. I'm not sure why Rare decided to rehash 3 sports, but it simply doesn't work.
The overall experience still doesn't feel as fun as Wii Sports, which was released 7 years ago.
Overall I'd still recommend that you consider picking it up, as it is the only use of the Kinect 2.0 that is available and it's still a heap of fun to play when you have company.

Polygon - 6/10

Kinect Sports Rivals is too loose and inconsistent

看来“革命性”的kinect 2还是老样子嘛   让rare做个传统的游戏行不？
