Microsoft has announced that the launch of Kinect for Xbox 360 in North America will be supported with a line-up of 17 games.

These include the bundled Kinect Adventures, Kinect Sports, Kinectimals, Dance Central and Joy Ride.

North American Kinect launch line-up:

Kinect Adventures

Kinect Sports

Kinectimals

Game Party: In Motion

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1 The Videogame

Your Shape: Fitness Evolved

Dance Central

The Biggest Loser Ultimate Workout

DanceMasters

EA SPORTS Active 2

Zumba Fitness

MotionSports

DECA SPORTS FREEDOM

Kinect Joy Ride

ADRENALIN MISFITS

Fighters Uncaged

SONIC FREE RIDER

With six dance/fitness titles and four sports compilations forming over half the launch line-up, it can hardly be called diverse. Microsoft is clearly going after the same crowd that have been snapping up Wiis, so you’ll find very little designed to appeal to the Xbox 360’s traditionally core fanbase.

However, with Halo: Reach already out, Fable III coming later this month, and Call of Duty: Black Ops and NFS Hot Pursuit coming in November, there’s plenty for the core demographic to be getting on with.
