Dance Central and Kinect Sports are breakout hits for Microsoft’s Kinect, each game has accounted for one million units in US sales.  The Kinect device has globally achieved 8 million units shipped.

During Kinect’s November launch month, Dance Central just missed making the top ten in U.S. game sales for the month and was trailed by Rare-developed Kinect Sports and Ubisoft’s Your Shape: Fitness Evolved are among the best selling Kinect titles.  Harmonix also just missed the mark in getting on the top ten games of 2010, but there is always 2011.  Kinect is a controller free gaming experience.  Based around a webcam-style add on peripheral that allows users to interact with the game console without a controller, instead users use natural motions and spoken commands to use the system.

Dance Central is developed by Harmonix, creators of the Guitar Hero and Rock Band, gameplay involves the player performing dance moves which are tracked by one in eight in-game avatars.  Dance Central is ranked No. 6 best selling product in Amazon’s Video Games section.  Kinect Sports allows multiple players to engage in six different motion controlled sports with many challenges for each experience.  It also includes a Sports Play mode allowing players to play in a tournament or series of tournaments.
