Looks like I might be buying a Wii.

With your thread title I expected to see a picture of a big wakeboat. :lol:

Here is a trailer: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/kite-surfing-active-life/5...

Too bad they don't make some kind of full on kite game with snowkiting, landboarding, water, and buggying. Someday.....

Wow.. that's... pretty bad. It's like they just replaced the image/model of a boat with a kite (that's constantly upside down WTF??). But what can anyone expect.. it's a mini-game in a game full of mini-games.

(At *least* turn the kite right-side-up for cryin out loud :/)

I think that it said it was out Aug 11th. Game is called Active Life: Extreme Adventure. Just go to Best Buy dot com or your local Canadian videogame retailer on the 11th and buy it!

It's a start in the right direction anyway (except the kite position) Wonder who assisted in developing it. I was just thinking about getting on the Wii with "Skate It" game and decided to check out PKF because it is raining outside. I would prefer landboarding or at least buggying options. Thanks for the heads up...

:duh: Sometimes the world is still pretty simple :duh:

I will be buying it for sure!

Clearly I am intimidated by all the connectivity and extra stuff that Wii has. I just wanted some fun balance games to help with kiting.

I have to expect adjusting the game so the nunchucks act like handles would be pretty easy for them to develop ? We should all suggest it to them ?

Thanks

Hmmm...looks like the bay area...3rd street, heading toward Crissy Field. Nice.

The upside down/backwards kite thing is pretty weird though. How did they get this far into development and miss such a fundamental aspect of the sport? I hope they fix that.

NO WIND DOES STILL MATTER :crazy:

So ............ I haven't had a good session in almost 2 weeks now.:ticking:
I couldn't take it so I bought thisgame in an attempt to feed the Jones.

This game sucks more than Kite Killers :yes:

You need to buy a pad to Wii on as part of the box set so it's $69 CDN :bird::bird:

I'll give it a 2 out of 10. 1 because it IS something to do when the wind isn't blowing but it isn't much like the real thing. 2 because at least the subject is cool.


Maybe at higher levels you can kite loop but at beginer level it is just left / right and pump for speed. Jumps are a bit of a joke.


Will Trade Wii for WIND !!!:tumble:
