When pushed as to whether or not NATAL will actually work as advertised, Rank states: “I hope it works, yes. [laughs].”

It should be noted that Sony’s competing motion technology also performs an amount of extrapolation as to where the Move controller is at any time, especially when the glowing orb of innuendo is placed behind the player’s back. That said, we reckon it’s probably a lot easier to track a coloured ball that may drop out of line of sight for a moment compared to some drunk lunatic who gets startled by the cat, stumbles and ends up wrapped in the living room curtains.

As long as it works I say!!

Gotta love the example given in THAT article by the person.  The person CAN'T be biased against Natal, can they?

Oh wait, thesixthaxis dug it up and reports it.  NAH, that site doesn't have a system it is supporting.  By the way, how much do people actually get paid to post this stuff?  I guess a rule of thumb is: When a person doesn't own a console, and they post information in a forum related to that console, odds are it is going to be some negative stuff.

Anyhow, I think there IS a big, "I HOPE this works with Natal" now.  If it doesn't work well at all, it will be hard to see Microsoft being successful with it.

How is it biased?  He was just trying to add a bit of humor to the article, methinks.  A "drunken lunatic" is hardly going to be your typical Natal user, thus I doubt it was intended in anyway to knock the device.

Really? Will Move have an easier time tracking a drunk getting scared by the cat and getting wrapped up in the curtains? 

The inclusion and wording of that line is meant to plant the idea in a person's head that "Well, Move may have similar problems but don't Natal's sound so much worse?". 

Provided the glowing ball is visible through out the whole ordeal, then yes, move will track it perfectly.
