10 Video Games You Should Play (Even Though They Suck)

3. Star Wars Kinect

Because of the Kinect's motion controls, Star Wars Kinect was supposed to be the first video game where the player truly felt like a Jedi. By moving your hand like you were wielding a lightsaber, you could cut enemies down to size, or duel with Darth Vader. Not only that, you could ride a speedster, take part in a Pod racing, or blast enemies with the Force.

At least, that was the idea. Due to the unresponsiveness of the controls, Star Wars Kinect might be the only thing more anticlimactic than The Phantom Menace.

But that doesn't change the fact this trainwreck is hilarious to play. To move forward, you have to bulge your chest out like you're doing an impression of a bow and arrow. How can you do that without feeling like a complete idiot?

In your head, you probably assumed you would look like a badass while taking part in the lightsaber sections. But since you are just miming the motions of a sword, you look ridiculous. Because you can complete these levels by flailing in every direction, you can't help find it funny.

If that doesn't impress you, watching Boba Fett and Han Solo busting a move in the Galactic Dance Off mode is sure to make you chuckle.
