I gotta say... i've always wanted to be a super hero and instead of dawning tights and just shy of one of those weirdos running around pretending to be super heroes in reality, this is a real as it gets. The game is overall fun, I broke a sweat, and I forgot I was exercising.
I also like that my avatar is the one doing all the fighting.. really drew me in.
My two favs are kinect sports (which will soon be replaced by kinect sports 2) and Power up heros. Man, I thought I was done with video games.. and I keep getting drawn back in.
Now the tough part is convincing my wife to play it and not accidently kicking my one year old while playing.

I have been waiting for this game since I first played Super Mario Bros in the 80s. Really fun, responsive and gives you quite the workout without being a fitness game. I have most Kinect games, and this is easily my favorite. Very promising for the 'next gen' of Kinect titles. It's a little limited vis-a-vis length and variety of play (this is a standard fighter), but if you've ever wanted to shoot lasers from your hands, summon zombies upon request, or otherwise be a superhero, buy this game!Best Deals for PowerUP Heroes - Xbox 360
This is the best Kinect title I have ever played. I'll admit I have only played a few others; The Gunstringer, Your Shape Fitness Evolved and Kinect Adventures.The responsiveness is great in this game. Some reviews say it is terrible, but that is blatantly false and there are videos on YouTube to disprove their claims. Just so you know how I feel; don't trust a media outlets review of a Kinect game, instead watch a real player playing it.
I would love to have given this game 5 stars but I can't. The campaign is awfully short. Another reason is the negative views it is getting from media outlests. Those negative reviews are going to make the online play sparse. I have been in a few online matches already and though I lost it was a lot of fun. It is amazing to think that someone else is jumping around to play the game too. Everything else about this game is fantastic.
If you own a Kinect this title should at least be rented, in my opinion. Use it to determine if you can even have a quality Kinect setup. If you cannot get this game to run properly then you should consider selling your Kinect because you will probably never enjoy a Kinect title.
SpazHinata and TheOmnigamer on YouTube have excellent videos on this game.
Honest reviews on PowerUP Heroes - Xbox 360
Now I have to say, doing poses as if I'm throwing out bolts of lighting an so forth makes me a little uneasy to do around others, but alone it's pretty fun.What I like about Power Up Heroes is that it uses my Xbox live avatar and turns it into a super hero.
Their are a multitude of suits and various ways to play using unique attacks against your opponents.
This first time I played this my left shoulder got so sore. Throwing all these punches and lifting my arms up and the occasional knee to my opponents stomach is quite the workout. I began to sweat after 10 minutes or so of this.
All in all this is one of the best Kinect games I've had the opportunity to play. It's fun, and it's great exercise. The only thing missing is a little recording of yourself like the dance games do. You can sit around and laugh at how funny you look fighting an invisible opponent!
Definitely recommended for any age range.

Bought this for my 6-year old son, who is completely obsessed with super heroes. He loves the game, and just needed my help to understand that the figures shown on the side will light up when you have that particular power available (you can only use them every so often), and that they are also telling you what body movements you need to make in order to use that skill/power/weapon. Not too violent or scary, which is a big deal for me.
