What does he mean "not homegrown"?

He means Natal wasn't conceived by Microsoft out of the blue.

Rather, that they saw Eyetoy and built on the concept from there.

Ah, so does this mean the arc may be more superior than natal? Sony has experience with this already, while this is MS first go. I remember reading an articel on this site stating that sony is not having any trouble getting games for the arc.

They're going to be different experiences but they'll both bring something excellent to the table. Natal is closer to Eyetoy in nature than Arc, so I don't think Sony can leverage that much advantage from their Eyetoy experience.

From what I've read, there's plenty of big studio backing for both Arc and Natal; perhaps 3rd party titles might release slightly later on Natal since Natal is still being tinkered with and fine-tuned whereas I think Arc is pretty much finalised aside from design (at least, I hope the design isn't finalised - the pink bobbles on the end of the Arc controller look ridiculous!).
