Natal tech demo didn't seem too accurate, but has potential, the vids showed it. Facial + Voice Recognition is a plus, seems like a PS Eye on steroids, if you don't believe me, look what the PS Eye can do on vids of EyePet, problem is not enough games for it. Another problem is it's an add-on, will MS ship this with every new 360? If so that will drive up the cost of the machine, and it won't change the fact that the current 30+million owners won't have Natal in hands. Speaking of cost, if this comes out at $200 like it's rumored, it'll fail. Plus am I the only that thing people look stupid just waving their arms around? Or driving and shifting gears......without a wheel and stick?

 

Wii Motion + looks good, doesn't seem like it's 1:1 though, but a major improvement from what we have now. Will the old games support it? I will have to say that Nintendo is in the best position though because their only problem is if older games will support the device, and that's not too big a problem to have to be perfectly honest. They just need to get more hardcore games out on the market. I know Nintendo fans are pissed because MS and Sony "copied" Nintendo and are offering their own motion solution.

Sony dildo, I mean wand lol - Looks the most accurate out of the 3, but does it require a camera AND an extra dildo? If so, will customers have to buy not 1, but 3 accessories? That is not gonna happen, also how do you move your character since there's no button on the wand? And like the 360's offering, it'll have the problem of being an add on, if Sony packs it in with the slim, then will the price still go down? How much will this add on cost? If it requires a camera that's already 40 bucks, if it's as much as a normal DS3, then that's a total of 90 bucks, if it requires two dildos and the camera that's $140 bucks, and it'll fail miserably.

 

We'll only know which motion solution is the best when ALL 3 are out, based on the tech demos (not videos), I say Natal is last, Motion+ is 2nd and Dildo is 1st, Natal probably has the most potential and Motion+ is in the best position right now.

 

1.) Comparing Natal's technology to the EyeToy is a joke, check out my thread to see why.

2.) Natal is based on Microsoft's own internal technology and technologies by other vendors which have already been proven to work well.

3.) People already look pretty stupid waving the Wii wand around, so I doubt anyone will care. All the arguments you are making could be made against the Sony wand.

4.) You've never used the Wii Motion Plus or seen it in person, saying that it doesn't look like 1:1 motion is just speculation and fanboyism.

5.) You've never used the Sony wand or seen it in person, saying that it is more accurate than the Wiimote is pure speculation and fanboyism.

6.) Calculate the cost of 4 Sony wands VS 1 Natal for the entire family.

7.) You're extremely uninformed about this topic.
