Yet another bizarre and engaging experience from the minds that created No More Heroes and Shadows of the Damned.
As with anything that comes out of Grasshopper Manufacture, Diabolical Pitch is an interesting specimen. Taking use of the Kinect, the title melds gesture-based gameplay and your traditional gallery shooter, and tops it off with a bizarre story and setting.

From Grasshopper Manufacture comes a Kinect only title for Xbox Live Arcade that is to be released on April 04, 2012.
