Natal lag issues will hurt game development

The forums here used to contain great discussions and provided decent insight from the players perspective.  Lately, there has been so much trolling and overall negativity of anything not Sony related by some select users that have degraded these forums greatly.  This thread was created with the sole intent of downplaying a Microsoft product, in the Microsoft forums, by someone who doesn't even own a 360.  Why can't people just enjoy the systems they own? 

If you want to have an online pow-wow of how your system of choice is the "best" this generation, by all means do it in the appropriate forum.  Let the other system users have their place to discuss their favorite system as well.

OT

I think Natal can open up some exciting possibilities for games.  I think when used in combination with the 360 controller some amazing things can be done.  I keep picturing the scene in Minority Report were Tom Cruise is manipulating his computer with his hands.  Or throwing a greneade in a game by making the motion. 

 

Try not to forget that this goes 3 ways...

apperantly these guys either dont go into sony threads (aka http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=98690&page=1&str=1618020425, http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=98340&page=1&str=964093655, http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=98706&page=1&str=1886562152) or they just have really bad short term memory. Either way... why did someone get banned for saying they are more interested in Ps3 motion when the OP has a direct comparison of the two

“[Natal is] exceedingly clever, but the lag on the input and lack of physical buttons is really going to restrict the kind of games that can be done with it,” he added, before going on to praise

Sony’s (currently nameless) alternative. “Sony’s solution will be cheap, accurate and will put buttons at your fingertips, meaning everything from action adventures to FPSes can be handled with the same input.”)...

it seemed non trolling and on topic to me. I just assume it was the massive amount of bitter people reporting to please them...

 

OT - people have been saying this since e3. nothing new.
