Well let's just put it this way: Sony's third attempt at a successful PS3 motion controller will be a Natal clone.

Well let's just put it this way: Microsoft's first attempt at a successful Xbox 360 motion controller will be an EyeToy clone.

 

See, I can be biased too!

How about being honest, both of you. Whatever happens, it will end up being a clone of something made by Nintendo.

Oh yeah, I'm just joking around. Personally, I don't think Natal will be very successful and I definitely don't see it being anywhere near as successful as the Wii. Similarily, I don't see Gem (or whatever Sony call their motion controller) being terribly successful either. If it's bundled with all ps3s once it releases, it will move a lot of hardware, but I don't see that being hardware that wouldn't have been moved either. Natal and Gem might sell a lot, but I don't see it being hardware that would not have been sold anyway, so it will just add a new gaming dimension to 360/PS3, but not a new audience that wasn't coming anyway.

@PlaystaionGamer: Yes, I did get there first
