Eh...it's neat but I've long tired of even the Wii's motion controls with a few exceptions. I have never felt the need to control games with my whole body. Answer to a question no one asked.

If they integrate it as an alternative to the controller (with bindable motions, etc.) through the Xbox itself for support in all games, though, it could be really neat.

i read yesturday that it's failing their expectations. currently, it wont work for ya if you're black. something in dark skin screws with the technology. ima go look for that article

[MinisterofDOOM]

Oh, crap. I'm screwed then. I don't have any clothes that aren't black. Man, first Sony's out to get me, and now MS.

Play naked.

I would love the Natal thing with a light-gun type of game where you can place cover around or something like that - like Time Crisis on steroids - that would be sweeeeeeeeeeeeet.

[MinisterofDOOM]

That would rock. Assuming the game supports a full range of animations, you could add a hugely absent degree of realism to stealth and cover in shooters.

I can picture GTA games being fun, too. Run around, then transition to the driving controls from the video.

Play naked.

I wouldn't want to confuse the machine. It'd probably think I have 3 legs or something.

my interest for the project goes about as far as wondering how to pronounce "Natal".is it like "nasal" with a T? or like Raphael "Nadal" with a T?

You stole my comment! I don't think they're quite there yet, but I sure hope MS proves me wrong in the next couple of years.

Well, the MS rep in the video calls it "nuh-tahl" but either he's an idiot or the people who chose the name are idiots, because "n-a-t-a-l" spells "nay-tle."

I don't see why Natal is a big deal. PS Eye does this, not to the extent of Natal but it isn't a big deal. BUT this is bad a**

Project Natal: Milo

As of now it is nothing but a conversation piece BUT this has the makings of something special...

[MinisterofDOOM]

That Milo thing will never work. Molyneaux's MO is promising huge and delivering small. If it ever makes it to consumers, it'll be nothing like what's in that video.

I want to play "Hot Coffee" with no controllers!

Sorry. My cynic reflex is really strong.

I figured that when I went to your website...

[MinisterofDOOM]

incessantdoom.com? I just use that as a file repository and for email. No actual content there anymore. Surprised you found it.

Back when the Wii first came out I had the front page reading "Wii're all going to die" for a while.

[RCA]

Remember that thread where some one wanted to know what info NICO could pick up on the internet about him...Well you said no one can find any info on your self...So that is how I found it.

But "Wii're all going to die" is pretty funny
