Sure, buttons are required for things we are doing now. But I just thought of something that I would enjoy after about 3 hours of seeing what this thing can do. Give devs time to come up with neat stuff. The ability to read hand and feet movement at the same time can definitely offer some interesting options. I agree with you that genres and game types that we play now will be hard to force onto Natal. But perhaps we should be wanting something new. This isn't mapping hardware that ou are carrying into 3D space. This is mapping you into 3D space. I think that is quite neat. |
It's definitely neat, but as far as practical game development goes I don't see developers faring any better than with the Wii controls, actually worse. The main advantage over the Wii Remote is that it tracks all of your body, the disadvantage is that any action has to be done through movement or speech. IMO that will really limit developers.
