Natal can at least track your entire body, or multiple bodies, and interpret your voice or face for simple commands. The WMP is definitely the current leader. I think Natal is targeting a different audience, though. If you paid attention to the conference, Natal is all about targeting the 60% of households that still do not have a games console. It is about making the games so incredibly fun and intuitive that even people who won't go near the Wii will give it a try. The Wii relies on a controller and buttons. Some people still find using the controller a difficult/confusing/intimidating task and are turned off by it. Trust me, I've seen people even suck at Wii type games and if you think these kinds of people don't exist, you are ignorant. So, in reality for the current market WMP is the leader. For the new market, there will be 2 leaders. The Wii taking the ones who can and will use a controller, Natal taking those that still haven't gotten into gaming because of the roadblock that is the controller to them. Sony's attempt will be last because it can't even match the Wii since there is nothing on it that enables you to move your character, it requires the use of the dated tech that is the PS Eye, and only tracks one point (Wii tracks 2 points, Natal tracks whole body). |
wow.. do you even know the tech in the PS Eye? The Natal is more advanced but the PS Eye can do everything the Natal can do just not in as grand of a scale which is why it needs something like Sony's wand.
I will straight up say the Natal vs PS Eye the Natal is a clear winner by a mile but if its PS Eye + Sony's wand then Natal is screwed.
