The classic iOS fruit-slashing game Fruit Ninja [99¢] made the jump to Xbox Live Arcade today. The concept behind the game is identical with the major difference being how the game is controlled. Instead of swiping with your fingers, Fruit Ninja Kinect utilizes the Kinect accessory to allow you to wildly flail your arms around to slice fruit. This is all presented in a really clever way, with your body appearing as a silhouette behind the fruit on the screen.
Take a look at the awesome release trailer:
Fruit Ninja Kinect is available for 800 Microsoft points, which equates to $10. You can find it just by searching around the Xbox Live Arcade section on your Xbox 360, or you can get it from Microsoft’s online marketplace. There’s even a free demo you can try. Yes, I realize this is TouchArcade, not XboxArcade, but come on, how cool is it to see an original iOS game hopping to consoles utilizing new and crazy control methods? I can’t wait to give it a try.
