Bundle it with Halo Reach or Fable III, and I'm there. |
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.

Yeah, like I said, I'm not expecting a Halo: Reach/Natal bundle. I'm pretty sure Fable III is confirmed to have some Natal features, it's just that those features surprisingly have not been revealed at this time. Maybe next month, when the game is shown, we'll see something.
