Appearing at 'gamescom', Europe's biggest gaming convention, Martina
enjoyed the controller-free fun of the game which takes advantage of Xbox
360's revolutionary Kinect full-body-tracking technology - no controller
required.
"It's really good fun and an enjoyable way to play tennis with my
friends and family without needing a racket in my hand. With Kinect it's so
simple, there are no controllers so all you need is your body!", said
Martina
'Kinect Sports: Season Two' features a slate of new sports, including
tennis, darts, skiing, American football and golf.
Exciting new features bring families and the world together like never
before. Players can compete against each other in the living room as well as
online via Xbox LIVE, Xbox 360's online entertainment service.
The first game in the Kinect Sports franchise, 'Kinect Sports: Season
One', has sold over three million copies since its launch alongside Kinect
in November 2010.
