Wow, way to change the argument. Sadly, you won't be winning this one either. As I already said, NATAL is not for everybody. Also, I beleive I stated that MS will be the deciding factor in how they approach the "commands" for NATAL. I'm sure with the software, they can definately formulate better ways to actuate movement in the game.

Nobody needs to "learn" the commands for every game. Assuming that MS even uses verbal commands, I suspect they would be canned, and synonimous to all games.

Voice recognition, does that mean anything to you? The NATAL VR system is based on Windows 7's VR system (and it is a very accurate one) Also, couple that with the facial recognition, and NATAL's software will be able to tell when you are talking, or joking around with other people, and when you are actually playing the game. Doubtfull? Read up on Milo, you can tell him jokes, he doesn't recognize the joke, but he recognizes your tone of voice, as well as your facial body language.

NATAL will immerse you farther into the game than a controller would, don't like that thought? Well here's a novel idea, don't buy it.   

having the same commands for every game would be very good, but for god's sake, it may work for some shooters, but many shooters have different features, an action game like Assasin's Creed will require different commands, an RPG will require different

but you can't change the fact that it will be tiring to walk in place and jump and speak at the same time for over 1 hour to the tv, even if it's 100% efficient, action games play fast and i guess it's much faster to push a button than tell what you want to do, because until you say cover left, you'll be shot 3 times

still, i don't understand how you could play Steetfighter let's say for 1 hour on Natal? every fighter has different combos (commands for you and Natal), and until you say the combo the CPU will kill you, except if the fighting is that slow that is very boring

 

maybe it's true that Natal can recognize your voice accurately, this just eliminated the "a lot of people talk" problem, what about the rest?

if Natal plays every game the way you say it, sure it's not for everyone

First off, what mart of "not for everybody" didn't you get? Did you buy Wii fit? Well, somebody did. Unfortunately, Wii fit cannot be used for a wide range of applications like NATAL. Also, as i mentioned before, I suspect any verbal commands would be fairly striaght forward. Let's keep in mind this is all specularion as to how MS will impliment commands. I am merely giving ideas to all the nay sayers out there. Inovation is a wonderful thing, if you have the balls to do it. MS obviously does. Sony and Wii...well...not lately.

i don't get it but anyway.... do you still think all games can work on Natal the way you discribe it?

i personally don't think your ideas would make Natal a better experience, and in my opinion, Natal is limited in 90% party/family games, the commands won't really help in most core games for the reasons i said

sure MS can still get a lot out of it, but WM+ has more possibilities i believe
