What IS that on top of the 360? o.O I don't blame Insomniac, or any other developers that are shunning Natal, I mean, it's being marketed by Fable legend Peter Molyneux, which means he's going to get it overhyped for a start, and to be honest, it seems like it's getting too much anyway. Sure, it's all motion hands free blah blah, but with only 30FPS, it's got some limitations there, and I haven't heard anything about it being 1:1 with the user either o.O I'm more interested in the PS Wand, I mean, sure it's like the Wii, but Sony aren't hyping it as if it's new and revolutionary, AND it seems better in technical terms, since it can capture up to 120FPS (Well, this is the PS Eye), and it SHOULD in theory be easier to develop for due to it being similar to the WiiMote. Anyone can agree or disagree with me here, it's all opinions, but what I think Microsoft doing is making a big mistake. |
Im with you on these points. The wand (or Arc now isnt it?) does not revolutionize anything, but it will provide a needed bridge between the Wii and the HD consoles. This might bring some real synergy between releases on both consoles.
As far as Natal is concerned. Im much more interested in the tech behind it than in anything it can do for gaming. The idea is good, I just think the timing is way off. Next gen (say everything in full 3D? heres hopin :) this type of tech would be awesome.
