Do you want to use it with those games though?
You can split it up like this: -
1. Games that will never use Natal
2. Games that only use Natal
3. Games that have extra features/abilities if you have Natal, but are playable without it
I don't won't to be forced to buy it and in the case of option 3, I don't want people with Natal to have an advantage over me if I choose not to buy it. That's where I think they have to be careful with it.

Well, I'm expecting Halo: Reach to fall under the first category and Fable III under the third. I'd be a bit shocked if it got bundled with Halo and even more so if they didn't do some sort of bundle with Fable. I don't think there will be an "advantage" in Fable III perse, in fact, I really think Natal interaction will consist of using the "touch" feature Molyneux was talking about (which could also be done via controller) and maybe a few other things. Not anything game changing, but tweaking the experience a little bit. Of course, that's all speculation, and who am I really to try to fathom what's going through Peter Molyneux's head?

If Halo: Reach falls under the first category, then bundling it with Natal is utterly pointless. You need to buy Natal and have a game (or games) with it that can show off what it does, so when you first plug it in and use it, you're wowed. If Fable 3 uses Natal features, then a Natal bundle would work as long as it's not the only option for buying the game, but to really sell it they need killer apps/games bundled with it that we've not seen before that only work with Natal. I'm sure they will provide this though.
