Kinect Penguins of Madagascar: Dr. Blowhole Returns Again! - Xbox 360

thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My 7years old grandson loved this game. He requested this for his birthday and played it everyday for about 30 minutes and was able to complete all of his missions in a couple of weeks. He also enjoys the extras like the dance moves and finds it very entertaining.

My daughter had significant trouble trying to please the sensor with this game and eventually gave up. The game itself seemed great fun, if you could get it to read you.

This game has been great fun for my 6 year old daughter. The Kiinect system gets her up and moving along and it is easy enough for her to figure out and make progress in the game. She has beaten it a couple of times but still has not grown tired of starting it all over. The penguins' silliness keeps her very entertained.

My nephews are very fond of the Penguins of Madagascar, so I thought this game would be a big hit -- and it was...at first. Right up front I noticed that the graphics were pretty poor, and the game play a bit repetitive (most levels seem to consist of going in a circle three times.) But the boys liked the penguins so much it didn't matter at first. But after a while, the controls began malfunctioning, for instance: the game had trouble recognizing movements that were working fine two levels ago. The "mini games" are annoying and pointless. My nephews were not impressed. There are a lot of "videos" built into each level. Your penguin runs along for a few seconds, and then suddenly stops, a short video plays (usually just a couple of characters talking) and off you go again...it gets monotonous, even for kids -- remember, they're going in circles here! Maybe I've been spoiled by watching them play the...other Big-Name movie kingdom's Kinect game. It has stunning graphics and excellent controls. But the bottom line is I'll be selling this game and finding another for the boys.
