Star Wars Kinect due for a Christmas 2011 release, Forza Kinect also coming in 2011

Microsoft’s Kudo Tsunoda, creative lead for Kinect, told BBC NewsBeat that the Star Wars Kinect game will be out in time for the holiday shopping season next year.

“I think you could just easily imagine being a Jedi and using Kinect to make you feel you’re part of a Star Wars experience, building yourself up into a Jedi. I’ve seen a bunch of the game and it’s super compelling,” said Mr. Kudo ‘Bam!’ Tsunoda.

After talking up the Star Wars game, he revealed that Forza Kinect was also due out in 2011, saying, “And another one next year is Forza, which is the best racing game of this generation of consoles… Those are the two games I’m most excited about.”

So, there you have it; next year is the year for swinging around your invisible lightsaber and driving expensive cars using an invisible steering wheel. Oh come on, you know you want to swing an invisible lightsaber around. Don’t lie.
