(Flash demo) The power of a high-speed racer is completely harnessed in one place — your own body. It's three, two, one, and you're hurtling around the race track, missiles whizzing past your windows, rivals revving and pummeling at your bumper. A sharp corner takes you by surprise — you twist your torso with all your might and jet ahead, escaping a fiery demise. Your sister pulls up close behind, but you won't let her take the lead — you pump your hands back and forth and leave her in the dust. No doubt about it, the power of a champion courses through your fuel lines.
Ditch the controller and really take the driver's seat in the crazy courses of Kinect Joy Ride. When you're powered by the revolutionary body-tracking technology of Kinect, you're in control of the very best racing navigator there is — you. Perform gravity-defying, mind-blowing stunts high in the air. Speed through three new worlds. Hunt for power boosts and set up traps for your opponents. Let your friends join the race just by jumping in and starting to steer. Classic kart-racing action is super powered and intuitively progressive now that it's blended with the excitement of Kinect, and one thing's for sure — this is one Joy Ride that isn't on cruise control.

My siblings like competitive games to play against each other so this was a great game for the family. They really liked that you had your own car.

I would say this game is ok for younger kids. My 4 year old loves the game, however he has a hard time controlling his driver. While in the other hand the game seems to bore my 8yr old

My 6-year old daughter likes to play this game with me. I'm pretty happy with it so far. We enjoy the variety of driving games, unlocking courses and cars, and being able to customize paint colors. There were also some free downloadable cars (Chevy products...Volt, Camaros, Corvette) from Xbox. Can't skip through the loading/tutorial screen as in some other Kinect games, but it's not that long of a wait. It must need the time to load the graphics or something? Driving in Kinects is a little different feeling than actual driving. It may make it easier if you could actually hold something round and the size of an actual steering wheel. Overall it's one of the better games in our relatively small Kinects library.
