Kinect Nat Geo TV Season 2

SCORE: 80

It has been a long time coming in terms of a review for Kinect Nat Geo TV Season 2. We started playing this game back in January 2013. For some reason the episodes were released at staggered dates. Two would come out every single month. We have now played all that the system will let us play.

Do not worry if you do not have Kinect Nat Geo TV Season 1. Kinect Nat Geo TV Season 2 can be played as an app. This will require around 1.2 gig, and an Internet connection to stream the episodes. Fans of the first season will feel right at home in the second season.

Sadly some of the problems from season one are carried across into Kinect Nat Geo TV Season 2. Saying 'SNAP,' does not work unless you are almost on top of the Kinect sensor. This can lead to frustration in the family members playing this Kinect title. I know I got frustrated, and so did my kids.

Dr. Brady Barr takes over the hosting role in Kinect Nat Geo TV Season 2. I do not mind the change up, but miss the first guy. Dr Brady Barr is just as crazy as the last guy, more so in some areas. He gets into a crocodile suit, and a hippo suit to get close to real live animals in the wild. Very dangerous in my opinion.

Kinect Nat Geo TV Season 2 is really reptile heavy. There are a few different shows like the jumbo squid. The mini games are much harder in Kinect Nat Geo TV Season 2. They can also be more exhausting. So it might be something you have the kids do to tire them out.

I am not a fan of the streaming methodology in Kinect Nat Geo TV Season 2. It does not also buffer right. Lag, and lock ups can be issues from time to time. Some days Kinect Nat Geo TV Season 2 worked better than others. When it does work it is wonderful to go through an episode.

I still tremendous potential in this kind of a video game/television show hybrid. Kinect Nat Geo TV Season 2 shows what the future of gaming and television could be.
