Not interested in Natal in the slightest.. I wish they would just cancel it because if motion crap becomes standard I will just quit gaming.

I'm getting it day one, so far it's going to be the greatest remote control of all time

Anything they do with games is just gravy from that point on.

I can't completely disregard it now and say that I will never get it because I'm sure that I might eat my own words later. With proper support and a strong game line-up Natal might just be part of the future of gaming. I laughed at the Wii when I heard that they were using Motion Controls, I won't make the same mistake again.

Depends on the price and the quality of launch titles. I'm not going to shedding out massive money on it in case it ends up like my brothers wii - completely neglected apart from the occasional game of Mario Kart

If MS is smart and charges $100 and includes that ricochet game they keep showingand maybe a few other arcadey games then I'll buy it. If it's over $200 then there's no way i'm ever getting it.

if i have to take guess... it would be those games they showed off at E4 that look like arcade games come with the package of natal... if microsoft ask any more then $100 there going over board and they will receive a lot less sales... microsoft isn't that stupid at-least i hope not

You can't buy it at launch, you gotta give developers enough time to get used to the hardware. If you buy it at launch you'll be stuck with shovelware games for 5 months.

No, I won't be getting it anytime soon. Even though I liked the Wii, I barely play it that much because Im usually tired half the time from School, or maybe I like playing games with an Controller better. So Controllers FTW.

I did a study in class that showed that people who type in large font on the internet are often looking for attention that they don't get elsewhere...is this the case with you ?

You can do any study on how/why people do things/thinks but you will never know what a person thinks or why they do things because everyone does things different. You may only guess and predict somethings but you will never be 100% right.

On to your question the reason I do it to be heard so people read my post and not skip not for attention. People who look for attention relies on ether's thoughts to much and lose their own opinion and that isn't how i live my life. I live by my own thoughts and only taking the opinion of others to improve my self but not to change who i am.

Answer your question or no?

"I do it to be heard so people read my post" I'm pretty sure that's called looking for attention.

why? Yeah, i wont have A+ Titles at launch, but the first game for the wii was....wii sports, which is actually one of the best games on the wii to date. The games that showcase the new tech/system can be the best because they don't try to be fancy, they just do what the tech/system does best

No way, Natal just seems stupid. To me videogames are about sitting on a couch with a controller in your hand, not jumping around like a fool playing cheap shovelware games.

that seems like wishful thinking to me. Less than than the cost of a game? plus, if it comes with a game or 2, i don't see it being less than 80

No, I will wait until I see more. Of course I wanna see it first in the real world before investing any money in it :) Keep in mind the letter in the ads: "Product vision: actual features and functionality may vary." But it looks promising! =)

Natal looks great on staged videos, but I doubt it will be this great in reality.

But since haven't you played games with motion controls? surely you have had your fun and have moved on to stuff that works again right?

I'm on board with no interest in Natal. Not all games are going to go motion control either as there are plenty of devs that hate the motion controls too... they will still make games and they won't all suck. I think it is also safe to assume until it comes as a pack-in (in the hardware box, from console release date) we are at no risk of people taking it serious as to replace current gaming standards and reliability

I'm kinda interested, but I also have a Wii already. For me it'll really depend on whether Natal will be serious gaming equipment or just something gimmicky. The price isn't that important to me.

I like a controller or keyboard + mouse to play games. Screw this motion control nonsense.

I am going to wait a few months or maybe evan a year until I get it. I want to see the kind of games developers make for it. If there are a few awesome games that I am interested in I will buy it.

If it comes bundled with a set of entertaining games, I'd pay out for Natal... that's if the price is reasonable, as well.

For those fearing "motion gaming" as replacing the standard controller, I highly doubt it will come to that. If anything, Natal will just be treated like Nintendo's Wii Balance Board. Some good games, but it's not replacing the Wiimote.
