Here is my big problem with idiots who talk about Natal like it's trash and say it can't do anything or it's an Eyetoy ripoff. You have no imagination... that's the beginning and the end of everything you are when it comes to this topic... saying you can't see how something would be done is like saying you can't envision how the same particle of light can hit two separate spots at the same time. Just because you can't understand it doesn't mean it can't be done and done well.

The difference is that when you discover a strange phenomenon in nature you have to cope with it, even if it's counterintuitive. Usually when you invent/build something, on the other hand, it's because you have an itch to scratch i.e. a predating need that must be satisfied and that you know already.

What itch would you say Natal was born to scratch? That controllers - all controllers - are too hard to use? Or that interacting with your whole body in a less abstract manner opens up new possibilities?

Isn't it a little strange that we are here even asking how a tool will be used?
