The force is strong with these Kinect Star Wars Screenshots

We’re getting awfully close to the release of this Xbox 360 exclusive.

Ever since the official announcement of Microsoft's Kinect motion controller, the company has teased fans with the possibility of a hands free adventure in the Star Wars universe. Complete with harnassing the power of the force, and weilding a lightsaber. While fans have waited patiently for years, it looks like were getting awfully close to the release of this highly anticipated Xbox 360 exclusive.

Lucas Arts and Microsoft will release a limited edition bundle for the game, available on April 3rd, 2012 for $449.99. The console comes equipped with a Kinect, a Limited Edition R2D2 themed Xbox 360 console, a copy of Kinect Star Wars, and a gold C3PO themed controller.

While you may already have seen the limited edition Xbox which was revealed some time ago, Lucas Arts also revealed a bunch of new shots from the game, which can be found below.

Whoa those graphics are out of this world! 15 years ago.
Below par graphics, super light saber lag & misreading commands will make this the laggy POS kinect game to get this year!
Look for this POS April 3rd on laggy POS Kinect consoles everywhere!

  What about move?
  The Fight Lights Out; Playstation Move Heroes; Time Crisis; The Shoot; Sourcery; Start The Party; Killzone 3; Resistance 3; MAG ; MLB The Show; Tiger Woods PGA Tour ; Tron ; NBA 2K11 ; Goldeneye 007; LBP 2
  Basically just a bunch of shooters, sports, workout; fun and family games.
  What’s up with move? Move is an “optional” motion controller that just so happens to be the most accurate of all motion controls.
  Move just so happens to not piss on the core gamers in the process of trying to gain casual market share.
  I’m so sorry you had 2 half way decent games last year compared to PS3′s 12.
  I’m so sorry you have 1 dried up crappy game this year compared to PS3′s 9
  What’s up with move? Move….is just doing it right.
  Do I need to remind you what reviewers had to say about star wars kinect? yeah it’s gonna be shit and look at those graphics.

  Think about it though, kinect and ps move and two completely different types of motion gaming. It is a bit harder to have a game with good graphics that is fully kinect capable. ps move is basically the wii with better hardware. I am assuming it is much easier to input “motion” gaming when you have to be holding a dildo in your hand to have it work properly.

I’m kind of looking forward to this, though I enjoy my battlefield and skyrim I kind of like some of these random kinect games like gunstringer and rise of nightmares. Will this be goty? No. Will it be fun? Probably

Sony probably can’t afford a move star wars game, most likely since move and the majority of their products are not doing as good as you say.

when it gets released we will see if its any better than what every reviewer said when they tried it.
Its gettin hyped and thats a bad thing.
im afraid its goin to sell purely because of the “star wars” franchise.

Why not sell out music. They sold out to the money whores at M$ who shoved a bunch of money in their pockets to make this piece of $hit game.
Instead of using move; the most accurate motion control, works extreamly well and accurate with swords in games already out (and have been out since launch) and even has a glowing ball on the end that matches the color of light sabers.
Every reason in the world to make a move star wars game and none to make one on a laggy, misreading command, poor graphics POS kinect.
