eyetoy game where u can draw ur own tank and have it battle other tanks

I THINK I SHOULD MAKE MY POINT MORE CLEAR NETAL = EYETOY RIP OFF STOP HYPING A STOLEN IDEA

yup

motion control is totally hip now cuz MS is in da houz

Dunno how cool it is, but the demo was pretty friggin' amazing.

you dont get it, this camera is a start of a whole new kind of experience for gaming. the demo looked freaking amazing, especially the games showed in the video. if you disagreeing this technology is impressive, then you should get some help

Ms fans are embarassing themselves by hyping this travesty

yes because the first few motion cams are simple with arcady ways of interacting with a game. now, this opens up the door for physical interaction with the games. the wii is a very simple piece of device, its motion sensing is far from the realism this camera has. It will change the way we play, and if it does the trick, expect it to be used in amazing ways.

I love how MS brings a new product to the table and every cow thinks all Xbox usuers must think its cool because MS made it.

No, motion control is NOT cool and never will be for me. Flailing my arms and legs like a mental patient definitely doesn't appeal to me.jdt532

i agree thats why i sold my wii

and lemmings agreed until they got the eye toy rip off

Well, I like it and I only onw a Wii. This is the z-cam from last E3. It IS better than the wiimote. And, you can play with a controller in your hand if you want...though they might need to make a one-handed controller.

Another attempt at damage control.

Motion control is still silly as far as I'm concerned.

I know! It's a freak'n riot! And they don't even realizing they are doing it. 3 years of hearing how sheep look foolish 'flailing around', MS delivers flailing x 10.

Nintendo was dissed for it, Sony was dissed for it, but now that MS does it, it's COOL! 'Did you see how gwate it was?!? Wow!! MS rulez!!!'

Have fun illuminating your room with full lighting every time you want to play.

Dunno how cool it is, but the demo was pretty friggin' amazing.

No, I play games to be lazy tyvm, I don't need this "moving" crap.

Yes. Haven't you heard? If it's on the 360 it's "edgy" and "hip":|clubsammich91

yep. When MS does it, it's not 'Me too!' it's 'Wowooooo!'

And when 'MS Fit' comes out, it's going to be 'amazing' as well and not gimmicky in the slightest.

there's nothing stopping you from using the camera AND a controller at the same time.

Motion control has always been cool. Dual Analog is the one for kids.

It's not that the Wii's motion control was "not cool", it's simply that (combined with lackluster internal specs) the Wii remote's "motion controls" facilitate lazy gameplay in which buttons are replaced with, ahem, "preset waggles" What the Natal offers is completely different than what the Wii offers in that the Natal captures motion in 3-D space. That, combined with strong internal hardware can make all the difference between a shallow, "waggle"-filled experience and something with true depth. Nintendo's "motion control" was today finally exposed as the shallow experience it is. "The Revolution" as it was once called was a half-hearted and premature endeavour into the potential of "motion controls" and if Nintendo had been truly "creative" then it would have explored something like the Natal, rather than settling for something half as good that was half the price.cutmaclass1

Well, the wiimote does handle 3D space, heck trama center did it already, just not as well as it could.

But, M+ is fixing that. And M+ will be out next month cheaper...god knows when this camera is coming. They may still be "announcing" it next E3.

IMO, the natal is better than the wiimote implication wise...but none of the shown examples are anything N should be worried about.

Motion Control has always been cool in principle it's just that most Wii games have bad motion controls.

When it's done well it's cool.

lol i think i should have made more point more clear
NETAL = EYETOY RIP OFF stop hyping a stolen and old idea

The motion control for the 360 looks ridiculous. Also, EyeToy rip off, but the EyeToy wasn't that great anyway.

And this motion control for the 360 is not well done at all.

Again, just like the wii, that's down to software and nothing else. Don't play games that require flapping (assuming MS makes any). Saying that the wiimote or the natal require you to jump all over the place flailing is like saying to move in flower you have to run around the room making swooshing noises.

I think the great thing about the MS motion thing is it will be used for specifc games but with the Wii you have to play every single game with it. Deihmos

Which is also false since the wii has CC and GC controls and the wiimote/nunchuck has enough input devices to handel every genre outside street fighter.

1. there's no way of knowing that.

2. most people like those kinds of games.

3. most doesn't mean all. It only takes one great hardcore game to use that camera to inspire others.
