I heard him say it on Bonus Round but I don't believe it, MS like every other company will market this as being something revolutionary that no one else has done or seen etc and probably sell it a high price point, why? Because they need profit and people will buy it.

You do realize you can use it for other things than just game..well you probably don't since you won't take the time to look stuff up. Let's just mindlessly bash new tech because we don't understand it, SUCCESS!

I've seen videos of it doing things other then games, again it doesn't change the fact that it will flop.

The lack of 3rd party support will kill it.

If you think shovelware developers will spend the time to program anything to convert it to a Xbox 360 game even more a game that supports Natal then your wrong. It will just have a lack of 3rd party support overall.

I don't want shovelware developers to come to project natal. But I can promise you something, if it sells well, developers will come. Look what happen with the 360 itself. It's taken countless exclusives from Sony because of having a good install base and a high attach rate.

Natal will sell very well. Once the 1st party devs show more of what Natal can do, then the 3rd party devs will follow.

rather him than you... anyway, i think MS is taking natla serious enough for it to do pretty well. They have already said that they are treating this as a full hardware release. Therefore they are going to wait until there is a full library of supported titles to release itt

Show me one thing pachter has said what was right? ....Actual him saying that pretty much guarantee's it won't happen, also if microsoft 512 memory unit is 30 dollars, then natal isn't gonna be anything close to that....It will be uber over priced like everything else they make

But what you don't see is that the Wii came standard with the motion controller so the devs dont have nothing to lose making a sovel ware game for it, weres for the 360 they won't know how many will buy natal so they will not make a lot games for it since it won't be smart invesment wise.

It's not a "fact" until it fails - at this point in time, what you've done is *speculated* that it's going to fail.

if patcher says it will be very low in price, then it's going to be pretty expensive ^^

when was the last time this guy made a prediction or said something that turned out to be true?

that depends on their definition not expensive-

its microosoft,

and im willing to bet 169-189 asking price for this , , look at rockband guitar bundles-

im pretty sure ittl be near 200 -if not past 100 ,

so dont give your hope up even then , the 360 was meant to be played as it was,

the pad,

its hard to change somthing that was actually successful ,

eg the genesis to cd addons etc ,

if it isnt broken do not fix it,

and why would i want a nother wii -explain , could you even though it still doesnt have the varietyy in games wii has, that makes matters even worst ,

so ya play 20 project natal fpses- im not going to ,

itll fail just you wait and see, the wi was only succesful because they did it at the start there was no play on the standard pad first ,, , then we will slowly implement in motion tech ,

no it was not like that at all , also ,

lets keep in mind the cost of these games would probably make a 5-10 dollar jum p all for this add-on

Meh, I'll believe it when I see it, I still think it will cost at least half of an Arcade 360, but I can always hope for the best I guess...
