Bikini clad Princess Leia spied shakin' booty in Star Wars game

I see you, baby, shaking that asteroid

With Kinect Star Wars launching in just over a month's time, more of the title's features have started to appear online. Here's a titbit that caught our eye: a video showing a bikini-clad Princess Leia being forced to strut her terpsichorean stuff for Jabba the Hutt in a Dance Central-like mini game.

Skip to 4m 40s during the zoom.in video below for a sneaky peak over the game's Galactic Dance-off mode:

Other confirmed features include Podracing, space battles, one-on-one lightsabre duels and Rancor Rampage - a chance to become the Rancor monster and wreck havoc.

LucasArts' Kinect Star Wars is released on 3 April. The fourth'll be strong with this one. Ahem. ®

A Star-Wars motion-controlled dancing game?!

That's it. I give up. Where do I hand my "old-school gamer" membership card in? What an abomination.

Holy mother of God. In all my 37 years, this, THIS, is the moment I've been waiting for.

Re: Thought it was going to be sexy,

Plug the Episode 6 DVD in and you will note why.

That... thing... at 4:40 is not Princess Leia, that is an anorexic CGI stick insect wearing the same clothes.

In any case. Dance-Dance-Revolution for the pleasure of Jabba the Hut. Gag... Excuse me while I find the bin next to my desk... Gag...

While I'm inclined to agree, I think that's more of an indication that we shouldn't be trading our old-school gamer cards for those newfangled gamer cards.

If you need me I'll be playing Rogue Squadron.
