How to unlock the Super Streak achievement in Kinect Sports Season Two - Definitive Guide

Achievement is 15 in a row on 3 point challenge.

I really struggled with consistency when throwing this like a normal basketball, but found a more accurate way by messing around trying silly throws and actions.

What worked best is starting with both hands in fists next to your hips and punching up and forwards at the same time at a fairly fast speed. This worked for me for a total streak of 23.

Hope this helps anyone struggling.

Hey man,

I just wanted to say thank you for putting this up. I used your method for Kinect Sports Gems 3 Point Contest. There is a very annoying challenge to make every shot on Round 10, which surprisingly, is very difficult. Using your method I was finally able to get it after five tries.

Unfortunately, I don't currently have Kinect Sports Season 2 so I can't give you a positive vote. Rest assured that if/when I do get the game, I'll be coming straight here to give you a proper thumbs up!

+1 this worked second try after many failures. I almost down voted the top solution so this would be above it...but the other one isn't a bad solution (this is better) so I didn't.

Thank you very much sir (Charles Barkley??? laugh I got 57 points and the other achievement with a normal technique, but with yours I easily scored 144. And sometimes I waited for the ball to go so could have been even higher!

I started this game hardly making any shots, but with your technique, I didn't miss once. Thanks.

I found this to be by far the hardest of this DLC's achievements. While there is a technique which works best with each rack, I thought I would tell you which racks tend to be the easiest to hit 15 in a row on: 1-3 & 6-8. After you get through the 5th rack which is a fullcourt shot, you'll get a relatively easy shot near the baseline. The next two shots aren't that bad either. The only problem is that you have to hit a lot of money balls to give that extra time to make it to rack 8. So, you may want to just restart if you don't nail this in the first 3.

As far as technique goes, just take your time a little. I just brought the ball straight up through my chest and over my head and flicked my hands forward above the top of my head...just like I would if I were really playing basketball. I also found that set shots work better than jump shots.

Finally, you don't have to simulate picking the ball off of the racks either as the ball will automatically teleport into your hands after each shot.

Agreed, Boots, good info here. There is a little trick that worked for me. Trying to shoot like I would in real basketball wasn't working so what I did was bend my elbows at 90 degrees with fingers together facing up and palms facing each other.

Then I held my arms steady and did a half squat. Then extend your legs (don't jump, just stand up fully) and very slightly raise your arms at the shoulders. This subtle movement will shoot the ball, and for me at least, the shots were dead on every time.

Thanks Milo! I'm glad I could help. Even though I've already finished all of the achievements I do plan on playing the bball again as I loved it - so...I'll test out your method too when I get back to it to see if it works as well. One of my problems is that my Kinect is in the basement and the lower ceilings made it hard to extend my arms on the jump shots...that's when I tried more of a set shot to see if that worked and I found that it did.

I did this my first try just by pretending I was shooting a basketball. Thanks for the pointless tips.

*easiest. I'm sure with your great intellect you probably couldn't even figure out how to hook up your Kinect.

This one I got in my first run through of this game, but I see how this one could give people some trouble. Basically, just keep shooting the ball straight from the front of your body, and don't flail outward to your sides. Don't give up on your shots either. Just keep taking jump shots and this one will come. Make sure not to shoot any side or regular fade away shots, because your shots will be off the mark.

If you have any questions or feedback, feel free to post a comment or send me a PM!

Just jump up and shoot for 15 baskets, none of them are hard to make, just make sure your shooting towards the basket, not off to the left or right of it. The closer shots seem to be easier, so try to do this at the beginning.
