Looks like they're were having a lot of fun. Love the diveroll the kid pulls in the middle of the game.:shock:

The general public is gonna eat this up. Games like Wii Fit and Just Dance are gonna sell like hotcakes with Natal.

nhh18

This is what I hate about america. People buy stuff like wii fit, and natal. And don't buy super mario galaxy fallout 3 or uncharted 2 among thieves

Do not bring up the "nation card" please, as this is not something that occurs only in the United States.

The report about needing atleast 4m distance was a mistake.

Yea, that's not really changing my thoughts on motion control.

Microsoft is copying Sony's Eye Toy, Sony is copying Nintendo's Wii Mote and Nintendo is trying to fix their busted Wii Mote with Motion Plus. Right now, motion control seems to be a masive breading ground for never-ending epic fails.

Joke post right? Wii Fit sells everywhere, not just NA.

SMG sold almost 10 million copies, Fallout 3 hit over 5 million, UC2 got to 3 million or so.

Do you ever consider the possibility that moms, or adult women in general don't want to play games about killing super mutants, or games aimed at teeny-bopper boys like Uncharted 2?

You've been on a fakeboy roll lately, so I don't doubt this is all just a big troll job.

gamecubepad

I know people think shipment numberfs represent sales to consumers. But going by most game releases they probably make around 30 million dollars in movie theatres at most.

Wait, games in theaters? We're losing you nnh18.

Trust me, Uncharted 2 made plenty of profit. It's 1st party. Funded and published by Sony. The dev cost for the game was around $25 million. 2-3 million sales...you do the math.

Women and girls don't give a crap about pip boys and Rock-it launchers. They want to dance, dress up, and get in shape. Two totally different markets. Natal is aimed at moms and daughters, and families in general. Take that how you will. I think it's a good thing to get as many people gaming as possible.

Nah. Blockbusters tend to appeal both to men and women. Their demographics are far smaller split than videogames. The only reason why video games do well is because of price of video game. The audience is still insignificant compared to music and movies.

At least they showed a little bit of a different game at the start, I can't be the only one that's sick of seeing that stupid ball game.

I hope to high hell this isn't the future of gaming. Move can go die as well.

Ugh this is a hardcore gamers nightmare. I got a messed up disk in my lower spine so natal is an automatic no-go for me, and after seeing these new vid's I couldn't care less about it. I can see it becoming a new fad with the casuals, but for the kinds of games most of us on this site enjoy Natal is looking to be pure fail of the highest order. Natal apologists are getting a little defensive now seeing as how utterly ridiculous people look playing this dreck. If i was an MS fanboy I'd be angry that resources are being diverted from making new IP's so they can try and win over the Wii casual crowd.

[QUOTE="toast_burner"][QUOTE="fun-da-mental"]

Why do I have to wave my hands when I can just navigate the menus precisely with a controller more ergonomically?. This idea sounds stupid and impractical.

Bus-A-Bus

He also imlyed that Natal will only be used to navigate menus. :P

Who gives a f word what would you like to do?Its not like you two have 360...instead of waving with your hands with Natal you will wave with Sony sticks playing KZ3 while you were saying that MS will turn casual.You guys are bunch of hypocrites,thats what you are.There is like 60% of people that bash Natal in Natal threads but when Move thread comes its so cool to hold two sticks that are so practical and precise,so original and with so many great announced games...also you wont look like a fool,you will look cool like Darth Vader in front of TV,wearing 3d glasses and chasing flies,so hardcore... :roll:

You seem a tad upset. It couldn't be because you watched the new natal vid's and had the same reaction most of us had but are trying to deny it, could it?

I agree. The Wii music presentation looked relatively sane compared to these full body spasms.

I can't wait till June 13. I will need to buy a new box of tissues as I will not be able to stop myself from laghing so hard that I cry.

I will also make sure someone is with me as a few times in my life I laughed so hard that I could not breath, and when I did I almost passed out from taking in so much air at one time.

WOW after seeing that NO one should say anything about the Wii.

don't blame america, blame the parents and the kids who beg them for it. Also if you are going to blame a country didn't the UK have Just Dance as #1 title for over half a year?

SO uncharted 2 is for teeny bopper boys huh? Then who's Halo for? toddlers? Come on man. I agree with the moms thing, but you didn't have to bash one of 2009's best and most awarded game. I guess with your natal praise , and bash on UC2 its clear which faction you belong to.

Or maybe we could not blame anybody and stop worrying what other people buy.

And now gamers ridicule someone because a family is having fun playing a game they like? I was wondering why gamers play games because they prefer to just look cool, not because the games are fun to play anymore? Anyway, here are some of the pics from a recently event in LA. These people just didn't care what they looked like in front of otherspectators watching them because they were just having fun:

Notwithstanding, alcohol tends to lower inhibitions. And the fact that two people are doing front flips makes it look rather staged.

While the family do look ridiculous, that's only half the reason that the video gains derisive comments.

The other half is that the software shown is either unappealing to some, or looks fun, but the kind of fun that you're over with after a few minutes.

Like the giant keyboard in Big. Sure it looks fun, I'll try it in a store, but I'm not going to buy it for my home, because I'd be hit with buyer's remorse as soon as I handed over the cash.

Acually I do have a 360 and at the moment its my only console (ps3 broke and the Wii needs a new cable)

Move will be bad as well but no where near as bad. The wiimote works well for a lot of games and Move is an exact copy so it will work, but it will lack the support the Wii has.

Too bad this might NOT work for me...

1. Someone lives BELOW my apartment unit.
2. Don't have that much space in my unit.
3. Last thing I want to do after work is re-arrange my furniture to play this.
4. One year after e3 2009 and ...
... Still has noticeable lag (0:50+)
... Still has WELL BAM (0:28+)
5. I hope it won't require the same lighting conditions. Looks like an angel is coming
6. Possibly $150 for this??
7.Video didn't help =(. Parents seem to just pretend they are having fun.

MS Please ... I hope I'm wrong.

I think the people who are just blindly bashing something they had not played, and making fun of people who are enjoying themselvs to be funnier.

But there are a number of things that are difference, 1) Big Rigs is out, 2)Natal is coming out latter this year, and 3) there had been people who had played around with Natalsaying that it was fun to play. Not the future of video games, but it is fun.

Some people dont feel its fair to judge until they've seen everything it has to offer.
