Microsoft, the developer of the product, wants you to believe it does certain things.
David Cage, who works for a competitor of said developer, wants you to believe it doesn't do those things.

The truth is probably somewhere in the middle.

The funny thing is, Heavy Rain is actually a game that would mesh perfectly with Natal, assuming the technology works as planned.

They have been very vocal about only making for PS3 this gen. Very vocal. Also I remember reading about Sony looking to own them. Lets not beat the bush. They said no games for 360. And why would any 3rd party company do that, with a bigger user base and more likely sals on the 360 unless there were strong ties with Sony. Dont beat the bush. No QD games on 360 this gen 'shows' Sony ties.

Didn't QD say Heavy Rain could ONLY be done on the PS3...lol.  That seems the be a the scripteed response from developers working with Sony alot...

I will wait to see the final product before agreeing with him or not....I am very skeptical of Natal but who knows...maybe it really can do some impressive stuff...but I will believe it when I see it and I have not seen a promising demo yet (and no hitting balls or standing like constipated to drive a car are not promising nor do they looks fun) I think Natal can excel in different unique types of gameplay, so I hope they come up with some nice games

he is right, he doesn't sound like insulting it, but microsoft really try to overhype it past E3, media will burn them if they don't do what they promised.

I completely agree.  MS has been pushing this like it will be the next huge thing.  It's already recieved numerous articles and awards based on "what it could do."  That alone, in my book at least, is BS.  It also sets MS for a huge problem.  Anything that's hyped this much is either a success or a flop.  No real in betweens.  And given the fact that all the post-E3 buzz was based on the prototype, one that still contained the microprocessor (and still had tracking issues even with it), doesn't give me much hope for the device.  Not saying MS can't pull it off, just being cynical and not being swept up into the hype.

I think it's smarter the way Sony played it.  Just create a little buzz at E3 last year, with a bigger push near launch.  This allows the hype behind the product to not be too huge, which in turn allows the product to make it on its own merits.  So even if the Move is not a HUGE succes, it can at least get a moderate following on those merits and not be bashed for not living up to an oversized hype.  Plus, we have seen how it can be used in core games aimed at the "hardcore" PS3 gamers.  The same can not be said of Natal.  And let's face it, the 360 has very few "casual" gamers.

But really, I don't see either one of these being as huge as the Wii.  The Wii is just too much of a cheap alternative, as well as having made a name for itself these 3+ yrs., for people to pick up a 360 + Natal or PS3 + Move bundle.  They may be able to sway a few newcomers to this gen, but for the most part these devices are going to be selling to the already established install base. 

OMG NOEZ!!  Don't blind them with the truth.  It burns!  It burns!

Funny how that story isn't even 2 months old, yet.  Even funnier how if people can't remember the facts, they just make them up.

well duh, is marketing of course they are gonna show stuff that simply wont be achievable with the technology, anything to get people hyped

and honestly i think it's funny how this comes fromm the most pretentious guy in the industry
