I finally got around to watching natal and i got to say i don't believe it will work. There are simply too many intangibles. It may work as an application but for a full fledged game i don't see it working. Like the fly swatting game shown in this video can work but as a full controller for a racer i don't see it working. This is one of those things like online that has massive potential but i just can't get over the doubts. What do you guys think?

i had that kind of perspective when the wii came out. but, it was a huge success. motion games will not be catered much to the hardcore community, more of the casual weekend and family gamers. so, it should be a success, though in a different way than the xbox was.

agreed. but i think it is in a good way. like wii was a small step towards motion gaming, natal is a huge leap.

I guess. But seeing videos on youtube showcasing Natal it seems far fetched that they could all the things they put in the video. The even say they may use the technology for Halo: Reach.

Re: Do you think Project Natal will work?

Yeah i doubt it would work too

When i usually play games, i move REALLY fast, so the sensors may skip some of my movements
Lots of people move fast when playing games


And image playing GTA4 with this :p
