Natal is getting alot of attention. The skeptics that seem to be against it are actually helping to get the word out about the device. This is off the subject, but I've beeen thinking. When you consider that an HDD costs above $100, and an external wireless adapter costs $100, it doesn't make since that any of these two peripherals would cost more than Natal if the initial alleged price of $79 is true. If I look at it from another perspective, it's also ridiculous that the 360 a...

Spandexxking and Hamoor, you both make good points. When you consider that an HDD costs above $100, and an external wireless adapter costs $100, it doesn't make since that any of these two peripherals would cost more than Natal if the initial alleged price of $79 is true. If I look at it from another perspective, it's also ridiculous that the 360 arcade SKU is only $200 bucks. There's something seriously wrong with Microsoft's pricing department. If Microsoft wants to rela...

That's a pathetic comment. It will be on live tv. How can they cover up anything. The only point of this is to let consumers decide for themselves whether the Natal is what it says it is. I always appreciate any product that accepts the challenge of put up or shut up. It's new tech, there's no better way to advertise something that most of the world knows nothing about than by airing in on a tv channel/channels that most of the world watch. Microsoft wants to dismantle the r...

I didn't have to stare at the screenshots for several minutes this time to see which one is more superior visually. Hint, there are no triangle, x, square, and o buttons.

I think Bungie should have held off from announcing this information until at least after Reach's release. This could be bad for Reach's sales. If gamers get the impression that Bungie's been working on another alleged title on the side other than Reach, they may feel that Bungie won't put the full attention that's needed to make Halo Reach the game to redeem the disappointments of Halo3 and ODST. I don't know about the rest of you, but Bungie doesn't exactly live up to its promises, and m...

Exactly what game or games was he comparing Alan Wake to? "Alan Wake’s graphics can be considered as good in some way. The environments and the lighting of the game are phenomenal but when it comes to the character models, it doesn’t look that good". That quote made no sense at all. I think even the most biased viewer would acknowlege Alan Wake's character models as some of the best out there. Why the hate?

Don't make any bashing comments about the competition unless you're prepared or understand the consequences of putting your foot in your mouth. They really need to stop it with the PS Eyetoy comparison. They are by far light years apart as far as tech goes, just as the controller we now play with today is light years ahead of the one button joystick and two button control pad of the 8-bit era.

What was the commentator boasting about? No other dev has had an opportunity to use the NFL license in 6 years. Who are they trying to sale the game to with that sucky trailer?

I am of one of Bungie's old fans who lost faith in the company. After the release of Halo3 and all of its promises of visuals that it never met, and that awful excuse of a new game that was ODST to make some easy cash, I'm going to keep bashing Bungie until I see the game for myself. They're just way too lazy of developers to not have created a better engine until now, especially since the company had more capital and resources than any other devs out there. They print money. So now they ...

How'd you do that?

I can't imagine the ideas that surface from some of the board meetings over a EA. They can't possibly think the gaming community would go for this. That would be like going backwards. Fifteen dollars to play a demo would be a serious rip-off to the consumer in everyway. After the demo ends, the gamers left with the feeling that he paid for an unfinished product, and would then have to shell out another $60 in order to play the full version. Fifteen dollars is 1/4 the cost of a full retai...

Wow, I didn't know Microsoft would add a mechanized tilting feature. My mind is boggling with ideas as to how that feature could be added into gaming. Will the tilt feature be for x,y,and z axis. I'm getting excited even more for E3? We all know the benefits that a redesinged console can have on its sales, but the 360 will be going all out with a relaunch design and peripheral packaging. The PS3 relaunched twice early on in its life cycle. It was only a matter of time before we'd see a ...

Don't be naive enough to believe the comments made by gamers in forums. If you understood the technology behind Natal, you would not compare it to the PSeye. Those who believe such nonsense are obviously biased individuals who want the product to fail. It's definitely a warm welcome from core gamers and casual gamers. It's been getting so much attention lately because it's going to be a different experience. The Nintendo Wiimote is 4 years old now, and Sony has built on improving the con...

Damn, those assholes Bungie. $h!t looked real to me. I do believe that the point of releasing this vidoc on April Fool's Day was just an excuse to see if the feedback would be positive. If it's not, they'll scrap the whole idea and then announce it was all a joke. I'm not buying it as a joke.

I'm pretty sure that the chip that was rumored to be abscent is now confirmed to be in the final product. Otherwise there would be no point of the article. Confirmed means just that "confirmed". Perhaps this news will be an upset to the wanna be techies out there who claimed that the abscense of the chip would cause Natal to fail. I've seen the 'Move'. It's not for the console that I own, but I don't want it to fail. So far, I've only seen Sony taking stabs at the competition ...

If you read any comments that say anything bad about the demo, just ask them one game on the market right now that can compete with it. It was awesome, hands down. The people who say negative things about the title are full of $h!t and just trolling. If your idea of owning a console is to boast about owning Killzone2, Uncharted2, God of War, and Gran Turismo, then you obviously wasted your money. This game is in a league of its own. Don't hate on which console its exclusive to. Just hat...

I downloaded the demo this morning and it was awesome. To all the skepics that were afraid that Ubisoft would ruin the franchise with some changes, the game is better and more fluid than ever. It has a much better frame rate than pass games, better animation, cleaner visuals, and it still has that stealthy feel of the old games. You can't just run and gun either. If multiple enemies see Sam, he won't last 5 seconds under fire. They took a risk and it proves to work brilliantly. The lock...

I personally don't like to read articles that bash something before it gets into the consumers' hands. The Xbox360 is usually on the other side of the fence when it comes to these incitive reads. I really don't care whether or not Sony has a motion controller or not, I'm just more excited about the Natal because it has more to live up to; far more. I really want to be surprised by the technology come E3. Both Sony and Microsoft are making a serious gamble. Sony, I believe is just startin...

These authors try to hard to incite fanboys. He didn't give much reason as to why he believes that EA are leaving the Xbox360 out when it comes to Tiger Woods golf other than the fact that it wasn't announced for the Natal. I think a lot of information about the Natal is still under NDA. Recently I've noticed that Microsoft has been a little more strict about leaked information when it comes to their products. The element of surprise proves to benefit. As I recall, Nintendo showed the Wi...

That was an interesting read. I can't say the same for most of the journalists who have been posting negative articles with intentions to fuel the flamewars of console debate. Only inclined minds would understand the article. My hat off to the gamers who read this article. Mr.Kotticks behavior can't be good for us gamers. A worker can consistently produce quality only if he's happy. If he's not, it's only a matter of time before the consumer suffers.
