i seen my brother play heavy rain today and the sixaxis goes superb with the game. i dont think natal would work with heavy rain at all. it be to many motions for people to execute and some of it requires fast response and well... natal isnt quite accurate.

Link?

Have you played Natal?

From what we are hearing, Natal's lag is better than Wii's lag. less than 100ms.

"Frame-counting from moving my arm down to the on-screen Avatar following suit appears to be close to 200ms (12 frames, a fifth of a second). Before we go ballistic on this, it's got to be put into context in a number of respects:

• We don't know the latency of the display, which could be anything between 1-5 frames (it's a Samsung, so it'll likely be towards the lower end).
• We don't know the latency caused by the game code - it varies dramatically, even between 30FPS games.
• Of course, Natal isn't finished yet, and best guestimates say it'll be 14 months until it's out in the shops. There's a very strong possibility that the final production unit will be different."
