Sounds like IGN anti Wii talk and MS pro.
IGN are coming off in a matter illistrates the Incumbent from Claytons book or Kim Chan. You can't have technology success just because it's better or aimed at the same way. It's all about behavior and value curve.
IGN is just spouting the factors without so much examining the behaviour. So why is pro MS, but when Nintendo was introducing theirs it's anti Wii. Also why is it still relativly anti Wii and pro MS when they are now admiting that natural(motion control) isn't going anywhere and is indeed an evolution. Simple, IGN isn't making the attempt to understand but bolster personal prefernce on a company bias.
Does Natal have promise absolutely, but i've already made a simple technical article and posted here. Natal doesn't at this time answer it's shortcomings. When MS specifically says it's more for casual use they mean simple use. The Wiiremote is for a broad use and this is where the difference. Not only is it simple, it's also complex. Much like Diablo 2, simple to learn complex to master.
I'm looking forward to some Natal software and think that some of the interaction is awesome, but want to see more and IGN are just acting like raving fanbois. Though I really think that being a samurai and using a cardboard tube for my sword would be soooo awesome.
Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.
