Suppose we just assume that newer technology is the same as a more advanced technology, does being based on newer technology make something better? If you're looking for the fastest land vehicle for one person would a more advanced 1-Ton truck that is built on state of the art technology be as good of a choice as a Super-Bike built off of 1980s technology? When it comes to gaming input devices, it doesn't matter if a product is based on technology from the 1960s or if something is based off of technology that comes from the future, all that matters is which system allows for the simplest, most intuitive and most expressive controls at a price that is acceptable for consumers. We know that Wii MotionPlus allows for some very simple, intuitive and expressive controls at a very reasonable price and it has yet to be demonstrated that the NATAL can even come close to matching those controls in real gaming situations. |
Now you are really grasping straws. Newer technology is not always better, just look at Sony's new motion detecting setup. But when you ask me to compair a 1-ton truck to a Superbike built off of 1980s tech, it is like asking me to compair a computer joystick with a gaming controller from the 80s, it just can't be done in this application. NATAL has been played in real games by press members, and as far as the reviews were showing, it definatly was exceeding all known standards as far as console controllers go. Just the E3 demo alone (Milo is an actual game) showed that it surpassed Wii and PS3.
