Maybe Natal 2 can see black people unlike it's racist older brother, or maybe it's so you can have 2 Milo's talking back and forth all day.

insecure much?

LOL

Natal 2....

NATAL 1 will flop? Because NO CONTROLLER?

But Natal 2 to get a wand like wiimote/move?

Microsoft style... "You dont need HDMI" "No need 3D" "No need Bluray (but try whit HD-DVD) "No need buttons, you are the controller"

Wouldn't it make sense to see if the first one is successful before you start working on the sequel.

This is just RUBBISH! if you know the first one is gona fail, why not end it and save the gaming community any form embarrassment. It's like working on xbox 720 when you have not even released the 360 to get feedbacks. .

This is just dumb!, stupid and useless from a business standpoint, a gaming standpoint, a financial standpoint and any other standpoints available.

Good because Natal I sux !!!

i expect that natal 2 comes with the promise built in gpu/cpu typical M$pissing over consumers

wonder is Sony is working on motion 2 also.
I have said and fully believe the cameras have to be VASTLY improved in order for this tech to be what we want. Both MS and Sony cameras will barely get the job done...

"Now with buttons!"

they already know this one is a failure xD

I'm not the least bit worried Microsoft haven't showed Natal with all Advanced Tech it takes time to get use to and come E3 Microsoft will no doubt show Natal Tech in it's full glory to the WORLD. PS3 losers will weep as they see what's capable on Natal and win E3 with praises from the gaming industry as Natal will be the Second Coming.

not surprise. one key person in natal research already jumped-out and joined another company so he knows that natal is not working so believe me natal will be delayed because they have not figured out how to make it work with even little lag, the lagginess is in seconds not even frames.

Psyche!!!

But really folks, this is nothing new. All companies have different iterations of their products planned way in advance. That way they can incrementally release newer versions of said product and keep the line fresh and new.

That is silly to be saying before the release of Natal 1. If people get wind of that they night decide to wait for the second, better product look at Visita, M$

You just sealed the deal and I'll be passing the Fall release in anticipation of the REAL Natal...whenever that may be.

Seriously...damage control on this should be a fun read.

N4g is full of sony fanboys. They all take this as negative news. This is POSITIVE news. It means microsoft plans to make a better natal down the road. Just like they plan to make an xbox 720 down the road. Just like sony plans to make a PS4 down the road. Its called research and development.

Natal 1 will succeed.... they plan on it succeeding thats why they are working on natal 2 already. Not cause they assume natal 1 will fail. If they assumed natal 1 would fail they would scrap natal all together.

I somehow doubt there going to be adding a controller to natal. I think they are programming new things for the next natal and the next natal will probably have its own cpu as well.

Don't know how many times I said that the Dreamcast was killed because Sega was talking about it since the Genesis add-ons, two console generations before it was released. Now MS repeats that mistake before Natal is out.

ps2 99 dollars 8 year old tech i think jack is right.doesn,t natal require 13 ft of distance between you and it just to begin with.thats a huge problem there,the likes of japan the eu etc would find this space hard to find in there living rooms let alone there bedrooms,13 ft and above is a master bedroom here in the uk,unless youv,e got 250,000 plus house.

I think we've seen the last gen with single-piece controllers. Next gen all consoles will have 2 piece controllers with cameras. I still think it's too early to be talking about what's coming next before the first natal is released. It may cause people to hold off on their purchase.

beta test natal. only for $50

Really? So you chumps REALLY never heard of Research and Development working on Mk N+1 of a product while Mk N is being finalized? Have you never heard of product life cycle? Do you know anything at all about how business or the world you live in works?

...looks promising. If they release some true games for it (not that kind of party games which motion controllers usually have),or some other worthy usage for it, I'll definitely get one.

And why people keep complaining that there isn't any games shown for it yet? (except that lame Milo stuff) E3 is coming, and I bet Natal will have huge role in MS's show. I'm personally hoping some stuff from Rare, Natal or not.

And on topic, all companies thinks about future, they don't live in the moment.

so this isn't surprising, if anything its good news

however lets hope they don't pull another Vista on everybody

Shouldn't they wait until The Success of the first one to Release anther.sure they are arrogant.The must Know Arrogance cost A deep Price just like the case with sony.

I think the real question is

"Was innovation ever born at Microsoft?"

They have never done anything buy buy peoples ideas and then improve on them a little and say they made it.

Think that is wrong, Look up DOS. MS didn't design it they bought it from someone and then marketed it.

They didn't make Natal they bought out 3DV Systems who were the producers of EYETOY.

Microsoft didn't make MP3 players they made the Zune AFTER apple hit it big with Ipods.

Microsoft's real business model should be
"Me TOO"

From what Ive seen homes in EU and Japan are usually small due to space issues. So its going to be hard for many EU or Asian gamers to find 13ft of space to use Natal.
Edit: Oh 123360 already said this.

Is so boring i was going to buy one when it was first came out but i did research found out it used dated dvds yeah smelled the cow poo from a mile away SO SO SO happy with my ps3.

MS Office is the only evidence of any innovation from Microsoft. Everything else has been a bit rubbish really.

Natal. Will be a huge hit...on craigslist and garage sales. Hah. Hulk laugh at puny hardware. Hulk have idea for puny Microsoft. Don't waste time on puny naval, work on something cool, let's see what would be really cool.. Oh I know games. Games would probably do it. Yeah something other than that wretched halo.

I would like to tag natal like they do on the discovery channel to see how many different owners pass it around, like they track birds and alligators in the wild. I tried doing that with my Xbox 360 but it broke when I put the sticker on. Puny Xbox.

They're all playing uncharted. Don't blame them it wreaks of awesomeness. Yes awesomeness.

I mean seriously, Microsoft is just getting started with innovation...

Dead? It was barely even alive. Natal is a joke from what we seen so far. As Nintendo always said, Software is what ultimately sells the hardware. If the games are meh, then what does Natal have left aside from waving at menus?

Nobody blurted out Killzone 2?? Awsome!!!!!!!

And thats a FACT.
