Natal won't be the only device to allow navigation of media without a remote or controller.
That ability does not come from the camera itself but from the software implementation.
We have seen plenty of webcam tech demos doing the exact same thing Natal is supposed to do. So to me it really is not all that exciting.
And the voice recognition is already well implemented into cellphones. Its not that revolutionary either.
If you are impressed ...
As much as a Wii system FYI.
Is that no matter what you either have to choose between the crappy 360 dpad or get a dedicated wired controller with a good d-pad (Microsoft hates third party accessories so they never license the wireless protocol)
Not ideal choices considering the Dualshock 3 is already wireless with a great d-pad.
When Nintendo showed it off, everyone wanted one but as soon as the limitations on software and accuracy of the controller became apparent it was another closet toy.
Natal is god awful with lag. Nearly half a second.
I think I was overly excited that this game would look exceptional but I think that may have been a premature perception based on the fact that there are few and far 360 exclusives (IE NOT ON PS3) that have come out.
I don't think this game is going to wow anyone on graphics but that also kinda concerns me about the gameplay making up for the shortfalls of the visual presentation.
I'll wait and see what the reviews are like but it might just end up being one of those...
Your comparison is entirely mute.
Firstly you use a recent screenshot within this comparison that NO ONE except YOU seems to identify as having "major differences".
And then you use old comparison articles (over a year old) to justify your bullsh*t claim that the PS3 version is "INFERIOR".
Why don't you wait for the game to come out on both consoles and then start running your mouth.
If Halo Reach ends up being less than 640p I will sell my 360.
This year as been the absolute worst in terms of majorly over-hyping many 360 games.
I mean yeah the game is going to be awesome but this is getting f*cking irritating.
Don't hype the graphics and claim it superior to the competition if you fail to go toe 2 toe on every aspect.
If you do that then what can I expect of the overall delivery of entertaining content?
A...
At least it is more affordable to be a sexual predator on PSN than on Live. I mean $50 a year can pay for 1/3 of your plane ticket to the boy/girl of your choice.
Religions who qualify:
-Have a constant need to feed souls to some volcano or god to consume.
-Must kill in order to persuade people to convert.
-Must kill to keep people obedient to observance.
-Willing to make outcast of people who do not follow strict laws (as illogical as they are)
-Arrive at my door threatening that I will go to hell.
The "Who did what first" argument is nothing more than to give exceptions to Nintendo for creating a flawed product like the Wii.
I don't care which controller came first. That's a dumb argument in and of itself but what does matter is which performs better and has a higher accuracy.
That is undoubtedly the Move controller.
Thanks for those pics. Those Alan Wake pics you posted are definitely better than the one from the news submission.
A lot more detail. Those must be like second beta or pre-final.
Its hard to use a survey of interest to prove that Natal will work.
Natal may be more popular.
BUT WILL IT WORK?
Answer: Very Unlikely.
Even if you argue that "But more people were impressed with the videos of Natal"
Put it this way, people are (EASILY) impressed by magic tricks but that does not mean magic is REAL.
Just as soon as Metacritic shuts down.
Has anyone compared the 360 Bayonetta metacritic average to God of War 3's metacritic average?
God of War 3 - Metascore 94
Bayonetta - Metascore 90
The scores speak for themselves. God of War 3 is BETTER.
All people agree that it has the lowest entry level cost BUT it has almost no value to an entry level gamer. The only functions it is able to provide is:
1. Play DVDs
2. Play (but not save) games.
YOU AT LEAST NEED MEMORY.
Would MOST gamers buy a ps2 WITHOUT A MEMORY CARD? NO.
This falls inline with the notion that, if your 360 breaks out of warranty, IT IS A BETTER VALUE THAN TO BUY ANOTHER ELITE.
Even the 120GB Elite is ...
With the PS3 you can put Movies, Music, and Photos on the internal hard drive and can view them from external media like Flash Media and CDs/DVDs/BD-ROMS.
With the 360 You need a USB drive or CD/DVD to enjoy Movies Music and Photos that are not purchased through Xbox Live. Its impossible to transfer ANY media from a USB drive to the 360 Hard drive. Its even impossible to put your custom soundtracks into the hard drive unless you have an Audio CD, CD-R, or CD-RW to rip music from....
He's an executive douche of public relations.
Why do you think Nintendo isn't scared?
EDIT: I love how I got a disagree for asking iFLOWLIKEWATER why Nintendo is not scared. : /
First week sales in Japan
PS3 = 16,000
360 = 15,000
Wii = 11,700
And as far as I know 16,000>15,000 and 15,000>11,700
So much for "barely selling more combined"
