If they do it right, its possible.
Its part of evolution, when the right thing comes along, we leave the old behind.
No point in sticking with the past when the rest is moving on.

Imagine if we all stayed with VHS instead of adopting newer media types, we would s till be playing with Commodore 64's.

...HYPE!!!!

I rather sit down on my chair and play calmly instead of looking like a complete idiot, like the girl at E3 playing Natal.

YAH RIGHT LOL, I ALSO ENJOY THE 3 RED LIGHTS AS WELL.

And it sounds like a old Nintendo PR post.

Because "hardcore gamers" asked for it, right? Hahahaha

I dont think controller-less gaming can coincide with hardcore gaming...i'm sure it'll be enjoyable though to the average person...but it'll die fast.

Don't make me laugh
halo is the most casual game second only to Mario

FFS "nobody wants Natal"

NOBODY WANTS XBOX360

Natal isn't for hardcore or normal players Microshit going to fail with a so called remake of the eyetoy sad how they still other companies ideas just like apples OS X leopard dock now look a pic of Windows 7 taskbar it looks the same.

"Well there's gonna be some hardcore games cause i dont see devs like Bethesda making shovelware"

AMF Bowling World Lanes (Wii)
Breeders' Cup World Thoroughbred Championships (PS2)
High Rollers Casino (PS2)

And more.

hardcore 360 gamers are going to love natal the same way hardcore gamers on the Wii love madworld and all the hardcore games

just ask Nintendo.(Laughing to the bank currently)

As long as traditional Gaming goes nowhere. I see how fun it is to play the Wii with my nieces, who fn knows.

Ok back to the Baby Netta.

"hardcore 360 gamers are going to love natal the same way hardcore gamers on the Wii love madworld and all the hardcore games"

In other words not many of them?

NPD has released the sales information regarding MadWorld and they have the total sales at a lowly 66,000.

Natal is mainly aimed at the "casual gamer". It will still support the "hardcore gamer", Just like the Wii. At the end of the day MS just want sales.

Thanks for reminding me of what Nintendo said in 2006.

What's Natal gonna do for the hardcore? If it does anything for hardcore games, it would be like the SIXAXIS functionality. Add it for a quick thrill in one or two levels of the game.

But, of course, they won't tell us Natal is only gonna be loved by casuals... that would just be stupid to say.

Sounds alot like when everybody thought that consoles failed because they didn't use keyboard and mouse, and controllers couldn't work. Some people that said that are bashing Natal, just let some change come, it wont kill you.. If it doesn't work it doesn't work, but your ignorance shines so so brightly if your gonna judge before you've tried something.

So says Microsoft... Didn't they also say that motion controls are gimmicks for the casual audience? So....

Most importantly it's the game makers themselves that are excited and that says a lot for their opinion of where this can go - clearly there are a lot of possibilities we wont even have thought of regards to this sort of thing

I really haven't thought too long and hard about the possibilities of Natal, but being that it goes beyond traditional Wii or Wand like interface and recognition, it's not all that hard to imagine their being better possibilities - devs have already voiced excitement over this like no other hardware before it

Providing the exclusive software titles are designed outside traditional control design and aimed with Natal in mind, i think it has every chance of redefining and therefore revolutionizing

Remaining software that doesn't solely use Natal could be used to enhance a game experience with standard controller play even if by just a smartly implemented extra layer of recognition say from ncp - an additional reason to buy Natal and one i'm sure MS has already thought about - not having Natal of course would make no difference

To say it's just a load of sh!t is a bit naive

i like it when a company tells us what we will like. I haven't seen any footage of natal personally. I'm finally going to check it out.

Mircosoft as usual is full of itself. They are taking a huge gamble and they know it.First of all they are selling it to the wrong type of people. People who buy Xboxs are not the type to get up and wave anything around. If they were the type who played something else besides shooters and sports game I would say different. Second of all people hate change.They are going to scare more then half of the potentail Natal buyers away with this no controller bit. Thirdly Microsoft has almost no experince with making or having either causal games or any game that didn't involve killing everything that moves. That is Sony and Nintendo's department.And lastly, so far all Microsoft has shown us that the Natal lags and doesn't even have the pin point accuracy of the wand which was a mere prototype. They are not even sure if it will work with a real game or to make the game that works well with it. Put it all together and you get a cosmic mega epic fail and a lot of tears for Natal investers this Christmas.

Not all of us...

@ Fox Motion controllers are a thing of the past. There were motion sensor controllers since the PS1 days if not before. Nintendo didnt invent motion sensor controllers, they just made them standard for the wii. Btw if that Pachter guy gets fired you should apply for his job.

even after the chip is removed?!
yea right
they'll eat up anything thrown at them :D

I don't know if I believe that but we'll see come the holidays.

I personally think they should do less talking and show proof...demonstrate real games.

Why even bother saying this? Instead of saying "Natal is for everyone" bloody well prove it! Also i'm a hardcore gamer and I look forward to waving my hands in front of the tv if it makes sense and isn't so that my stupid little cutesy avatar can play some silly little childish game. Microsoft are so obsessed with the nintendo crowd they are seriously losing touch with their own player base.. also can they please reference other games other than halo.. not all xbox 360 owners beat off to masterchief.

Its like ms telling you what to love and what not, thats why I dont like ms. They try to convince you about everything mostly by lying. I have much more respect for nintento, they decided to go casual after 2 last gens didnt go so well and did that without bs'ing ppl like ms does, of course any company does some bs'ing but ms is like a special child that longs for attention.

A lot of people droids are intrested in Natal articles on N4ps3G. Seems like they allready got bored with the fony dildo lol.

Natal will work with any game. It's all up to the developers and where their imagination and creativity can take them. The possibilities are endleess really if you think about it. Natal tech specs are very good so the limit is the developers now.

Did you guys see the demo for the pc motion controllers by razer. The guy in the demo is playin left 4 dead 2. Go watch the future of the dildo you natal haters and laugh at the wii like controllers cause it is funny to watch the motions he does. Can you imagine the droids all doin that looooooool. I hope fony wont use them in any of their movies like spider man cause that will ruin it all even if they appear in a background shot lol.

The Truth are you there? I see the sony copy ms thing is happening to the droids now as well. Someone is try to be original on here and copyin you now lol cant remember the name.

BULLLLLSHIT!!! I think this is what they meant: Casual Gamers Will Love Project Natal.

is a 13 year old on halo 3 shouting profanities...sure it will!! =D /jk /jk =3

on a serious note:

i'm sure there will be hardcore games like pixel junk shooter that work with natal, but nothing like a FPS, that would be too tiring

All i know is I won't be buying anything till I see some games in action.

Aaron Greenberg is such a douche he won't even admit that Natal doesn't have it's processor anymore. His line is "Natal will still be able to see you. It can hear you....It will work" Sh1t my crappy pc camera does all that. This is damage control. They don't want to loose hard core support now that everyone knows that hardcore games are going to take a hit because Natal uses up 1 third of the xbox's processing power.

Lets just wait and see. You know it wouldn't hurt to be patient. In all honesty the hardcores would still prefer the controller above everything else, its the casuals that eat up these new things. I can't imagine myslef doing poses and stuff when my sofa is a lot more comfortable. I have my pets on the floor always near me when i play so i might injure them when i use this.

Lieutenant Dan is sad.

Yes hardcore gamers will be stoked they can finally play games with grandma and the little kids at family gatherings, just like those Wii owners can!

Where is the proof Microsoft? Show us proof not guesses and egotism. Show everyone that you can play hardcore game with it with out inaccuracy or lag time. Sony has already shown the accuracy of the wand could kick the Wiimote to the curb. So either put up or shut up.

meaning this is going to not be what you guys are used but the gimmick will give you some fun just not full blown video games

"When they play Halo: Reach, they might be back with their controller doing some very, you know, targeted things."

What if I kicked my controller across the room while dancing around like a fool? So you're saying we need to run back across the room to pick up the controller quickly and quickly get my headshot? Awesome!

I really think E3 is going to be their platform to really show what Natal has. That is their one opportunity to show everyone their final product and show some games and show how they can implement this into hardcore games. I am very excited for E3 this year, it should be an enjoyable experience.
