How to Play Quarterbacks in Kinect Sports

In the football mini-game in the "Kinect Sports Season 2" Xbox 360 game, you play as the quarterback of your team against either a computer or human opponent. Players alternate turns as the quarterback of their respective teams until they either score a touchdown, kick a field goal or reach fourth down. As it is a Kinect game, you control the motions of your quarterback by moving your body in certain ways. Learn all the quarterback motions and controls to better play your character and score more points.

Instructions

- 1
  Start a game of football from the "Kinect Sports Season 2" main menu. Stand in front of the Kinect sensor and follow the onscreen prompts if the game tells you you're too close or too far away from it.
- 2
  Stand still until your onscreen character receives the kickoff and then run in place to make him run. Move slightly to the left or right to attempt to dodge oncoming opponents. Once you are tackled, the quarterback character will take over.
- 3
  Select a specific play from the menu that appears or select "Coach's Play" to select a play automatically. Bend over with your hands close together a little above the floor. Your teammates will be in formation around you. Stand up, say "Hike" or wait five seconds to start the play. The ball will be snapped to you.
- 4
  Scan the field for an open receiver. Each receiver has an icon over their heads and when they are open the icon turns green. Make a throwing motion in the direction of that receiver to pass it to him. If he catches it, you will take control of the receiver.
- 5
  Run in place to make the receiver run and move slightly left or right to dodge opponents. If you get tackled, repeat steps 3-5 to select and run another play.
