So... this game is coming soon or no?
I saw somewhere saying this game going to be released on the 29 of the present month, but no other news about.
I really wish is soon, cause i need more sports on my library, hehe.

Anyone have more info?

[Clemens]

I haven't seen any new info on the web recently, I think the problem with this game is that if it hits the shelves in the summer then it simply won't sell due to people not being interested in winter stuff in the middle of the summer.

Because of thid, I'm expecting this game to release later in the year, but I have no evidence to support my claim.

That makes sense Clemens. But you have to remember, countries depending on which hemisphere you live in has different seasons. Of course, the most likely target for Winter sports and the bigger audience is in Canada and US, though.

LOL that would be too funny

Is Winter Sports the same game as Winter Stars? I thought they were 2 different games? (If they are 2 different games then what the hell has happened to Winter Sports? Lol! )

[TheZeeMan]

LOL I'm not sure, I'm trying to organize the games section So I assumed this was the same game...was there a different game?

Well I remember Winter Sports being announced for Kinect (the series was already on all consoles) then Winter Stars was announced and is of course out now. Maybe they changed the name of the Kinect version of Winter Sports to Winter Stars, I'm not sure.

Ok just checked it out, Winter Sports developer was 49 games so yeah this was/is Winter Stars.

[Corellianrogue]

Here's the Winter Sports game. It was supposed to come out in the Spring but obviously that didn't happen. (Unless it did in America and not the UK?)

But like I said, maybe they just changed the name to Winter Stars.

Oh, OK. Weird that they changed the name as it was already an established series.

[TheZeeMan]

Ok that's confusing, look at 49 games website:

Unfortunately, they were just bought out in Sept. so Winter Stars is their last console game.

I'm guessing they changed names so it didn't relate to it, as I think I only played one version on the Wii and it was pretty bad. Or they were going to go into Summer Stars as well, which would have been awesome, but the new company that bought them said they will be using them to create a web based MMO (gay in my opinion, we keep losing good kinect developers).

That doesn't make sense, why would you buy a console sports game developer to make a web based MMO? Lol! What other Kinect developers have we lost? I can only think of gained ones, the various new Microsoft studios.

LOL Sorry I meant that as a future reference, I'm not sure what others won't be used again.
