Adrenalin Misfits is a cartoonish snowboarding game which sees you use the Kinect to pretend you are on a snowboard. You can play two-player splitscreen, and will need to lean forward and side to side as you pretend you are shredding it downhill.
From our brief demo at the E3 video game trade show in Los Angeles in June, we thought that Adrenalin Misfits was a fun snowboarding experience that made great use of Microsoft’s Kinect camera technology.
