This is a full game? Really?Thats what I asked myself after playing a couple of levels of Kung Fu Rider. Surely I was missing something but many rounds later, I kept coming back to that first thought. Even for a launch title of new hardware, this is...

Kung Fu Rider is essentially a terrible example of what Move can offer. Whatever you do, don't judge Sony's new motion sensing hardware on this title...
It is occasionally possible to control the game in the manner in which the developers intended. The game case can also be used as a talking point during dinner parties, where you can begin anecdotes with "you'll never believe what I paid $70 for".
Poorly integrated Move controls, which is a kind of game breaker as they're compulsory. Mindless repetition. No plot. It's a tech demo masquerading as a retail game.

Rarely has an idea so flagrantly, joyfully batshit crazy-awesome been turned into a game containing such an inverse level of excitement. You play as a kung fu kicking private eye escaping a cartoon Yakuza through the winding streets of a Japanese city...
Gloriously bonkers concept, Likeable presentation, The injuries can be hilarious...
Stilted gameplay that never really takes off, Repetetive level design, Nowhere near enough going on to justify a Bluray release...

The premise is suitably wacky and the presentation evokes Crazy Taxi’s arcade sensibilities more than we expected it to. But that doesn’t change the fact that – compared to the other two Move games reviewed – Kung Fu Rider just doesn’t take advantage o...
When it doesn’t work, you’ll absolutely hate it. But when it does work, there’s some fun to be had with Kung Fu Rider. The problem is, it doesn’t last very long before you get bored. Still, it’s one for parties, apparently. 6.5/10Print this pageComment...

Kung Fu Rider is one of three PlayStation Move titles you’ll be able to buy on launch day, or 17 September for anyone who hasn’t been counting down the days since the new controller’s debut more than a year ago. It’s by far the battiest, channellin...
Bonkers concept, controls have surprising depth...
Tires after a few hours, crippled multiplayer...
The best Move launch title, but its kookiness tires quite quickly...

This game is oozing with Japanese love. Whether that’s a good thing or a bad thing remains to be seen and for the first 30 or so minutes of this title, I was scratching my head trying to figure what on Earth was going on. To throw a spanner into the wo...

Every new hardware launch needs a wacky side-order to wash it down with, and this is where Kung Fu Rider steps up for the Playstation Move. The premise: You're scooting down a hill on an office chair, on the run from the mafia, avoiding obstacles and g...

There have been a lot of really bizarre games released on consoles over the years. But even against such amazingly bizarre competition as the WiiWare title Muscle March, Kung Fu Rider could very well make a great case for weirdest game of 2010. The gam...

Kung Fu Rider is a great game. It could even be an awesome game, but somewhere along the development cycle it seems that someone at Sony convinced their Japan Studio that it needed to have Playstation Move controls, only. That’s when things went south...

The mafia has been known to do seedy things to exert control over people, but even it would be ashamed of the line it crosses in Kung Fu Rider. Sharply dressed assailants leap from behind parked cars, jump down from scaffolding, and emerge from shadowy...
Lots of alternate routes.
Controls do not always respond to your gestures, Frequent crashes and lengthy ragdoll animations disrupt the flow, Unpredictable physics, Only takes a few hours to play through.
This wacky action game doesn't contain any of the fun hinted at by its goofy premise...

Aggravating, irritating, ultimately pointless... Just a few of the thoughts that were blatantly obvious in the photos Kung Fu Rider insisted on snapping of me while playing the game. Unfortunately not a single snap from the dozens it took showed any...
The simple fact is Kung Fu Rider would have fared better on a traditional joypad (it still wouldn’t be that much fun), therefore making the entire game ultimately pointless. Studio Japan has blatantly given a half-arsed approach to their first PS Move...

For a game where you ride office chairs and other wheeled objects down city streets,Kung Fu Rider is something that most people expect to have explained to them. However, it doesn't need an explanation, and the game knows this: the title screen shows y...

I like funny as much as the next guy – more, even – so Sony is probably aiming Kung Fu Rider at hilarious, joy loving jokesters such as myself. I imagine Sony Japan's design brief was to make a game that was wacky and fun. It certainly is wacky.The ide...

Before I begin my review of Kung Fu Rider, I should explain that I'm actually very excited about the PlayStation Move technology and I'm eager to see developers take advantage of the hardware. I think there's potential in Sony's latest motion-enabled d...
Kung Fu Rider is not a good game. The controls are terribly unresponsive, the game punishes players unfairly and the level design is repetitive. While playing Kung Fu Rider, the PlayStation Eye takes random pictures of you at key moments in the mission...

Kung Fu Rider is a really weird game. The theme is weird, the story is weird, the controls are weird, the pricing is weird, the fact that it's even on a Blu-ray Disc is weird. It's a PlayStation Move launch game but not a very compelling one to put it...
