How are you going to walk around in a FPS or TPS or 3rd person adventure melee game with these 3 control methods? Only one of these controllers lets you use a joystick at the same time, which is the industry standard control for movement.


I think you're forgetting that both of these technologies have some time till their release.  I also think that many of you feel that Natal has more limiting factors than it actually does.  Who says that you can't use your controller with Natal?  Who says Microsoft wont create a break away controller and comes apart into separate pieces... same with Sony.  They could map the DS3 onto those wands.  What I think Natal has some really big potential in is what Wii dominates in right now... Fitness.  As for none controller movements in a FPS... how about moving your shoulders as if you were walking with a real gun or lifting up your feet?  You could swing your arms... the bigger problem would be turning.  I think we'll much better tech when these two products finally launch.

That's the delima with Natal. As far as I can tell, the whole presentation of Natal is promoting that you don't need any controllers and it gives you total freedom as well as the ease for anyone to play. If MS were to offer a controller to use with Natal, it would totally defeat the whole purpose of project Natal and look like a PSEye + wand knockoff.



MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.
