^^LOL. Looks like Natal games where motion detection is the main control method, are going to look like Wii games :) I would rather that not be the case, but Wii fans don't seem to mind.

lol, that's being a little too harsh don't you think?  Has there been any word on how much processing power this bone structure calculation requires?

One thing's for sure without the bone structure we will never get to see again the amazing 1:1 Natal full body tracking ^^ :

 

Actually, now that they removed the "Bones" you can do that easily
