Sony's motion controller IS thebest GAMING CONTROLLER. It is better than Wiimote in terms of precision that was demoed at E3 and incorporates several enhancements (Voice control, Camera etc) almost every thing that Natal can do. Natal would be an AWESOME User Interface (think Minority Report) but as a gaming interface I am not betting on it succeeding. Maybe for a 5-10 minute gamning session it would work but for longer sessions it would feel unnatural and you would have ZERO feedback. Considering how much flak Sony took over Dualshock 3 I am >90% confident that no controller is NOT going to fly with the main gaming crowd (I am trying not to use the word hardcore for people who play videogames often). It is not uncommon for people to do 2-3 hours video gaming sessions imagine that with Ricoshet (as demoed by MS during E3). A LOT of hype was generated during E3 for NATAL for all the worng reasons. Milo demo (smoke and mirrors), what NATAL "would be able" to do trailer with a fmaily playing games together, discussing what they saw at the mall and dressing up their AVATAR in those clothes, face recognition, voice recognition all thing that will come "eventually" just not in 2010. Just think that some of these take forever to develop, Eyedentify for PS3 was announced in 2005 we "still" haven't seen it.

yeah it was so precise, the guy couldn't even hit a tennisball with a stop sign.
For me:
- Nintendo established motion controls
- Sony copied Nintendo
- MS made the next step
And I don't know if the motion control Sony uses is way more precise than a Wii Motion Plus. To me, Sonys stuff looked exactly like a wii mote and MS did create something else.
Imagine not having GamePass on your console...
