Kinect Sports Game With Fame

PLAY KINECT WITH OLYMPIC ATHLETES IN KINECT SPORTS’ 'GAME WITH FAME’

Win the chance to play Kinect Sports against Olympic runners Linford Christie and Mark Lewis-Francis

LONDON – 13 January 2011 – Do you think you have the ability to beat an Olympic 100 metre gold medallist on the running track? No? Well how about the running track on “Kinect Sports”? More hopeful? Kinect for Xbox 360 is providing an exclusive prize which will offer one family the ultimate “Kinect Sports” challenge. The winning family will win the chance to test their athleticism, by competing face-to-face against gold medal winners, Linford Christie and Mark Lewis-Francis, as part of “Kinect Sports” ‘Game with Fame’, whilst a runner-up family will win an exclusive video chat with the Olympic stars from their own living room via Video Kinect.

With the New Year comes new challenges, and if one is to get your family up off the sofa and get moving then “Kinect Sports” is the way to do it. You will have the opportunity to try a variety of track and field events against Linford Christie and Mark Lewis-Francis, and perhaps get a few running tips from the masters themselves.

With “Kinect Sports” you’re not only the star player, you are the controller – through the magic of Kinect for Xbox 360. The first full-body, controller-free sports game that lets you physically compete with friends over Xbox LIVE, “Kinect Sports” lets you turn your living room into a world-class stadium, bowling alley, football pitch or track-and-field arena. See a ball? Kick it. Spike it. Bump it. Even give it a little topspin.
