Review of NBA Baller Beats for Kinect

Posted by steve on November - 28 - 2012

NBA Baller Beats What a Kinect game should be NBA Baller Beats is much like other rhythm games like Guitar Hero or Dance Dance Revolution, but with a twist. Instead of strumming a fake guitar or moving your feet, you’re dribbling and doing real moves with a real basketball. And it works, both as a really fun experience and as a great fitness game.

Harley Pasternak Hollywood Workout Run of the mill fitness game that may be appealing to fans of Harley and his clients.
