that is absolute poppycock. and you know it...lol

yea i know your trying to be funny, well your not trying you are being funny. but you and I both know that is pure pubbish because if anything Sony's software this generation has been top notch. The same With Microsoft's own releases.

so for saying Microsoft's software is somehow more complicated than Sony's is kind of "well we use multi core processor development" and the way we program Multi-core development is more complicated than the other system. Even though the other system is also Multi-core processor development!

Lol, I was talking about back end software not the actual game software!

lol even backend..the tool's for MOVE is pretty extensive.

Not the tool - the actual algorithms.  NATAL is a neuro-network based simulution and prediction algorithm for human movement layered on top of a 3D spatial detection mechanism.  Move is a straightforward bit of tracking code at its core.  Given the concept, most CS professionals could probably write code to accomplish the same thing as Move.  NATAL - not so much.

that will still be done on the xbox360's end not the camera's end for the processing, so it would be the same if sony used the same camera on the PS3. now not saying the Natal camera is not advanced or anything like that it's the algorithms are still on the processor level.

yes they could but the problem it still would not be as accurate not have the button interface as what both the Wii and the PS3 offer unless Microsoft's going to combine the xbox360 controller with Natal for Game's.

Now though Outside of just game's Natal is pretty intriging as a control interface which is why i am very excited for Natal.

Are you intentionally being obtuse?  no flaming just a question, because your responses in the thread seem to intentionally misinterpret or misunderstand other people comments.  I posted the very definition of more complicated software and you talked about something different.  Then in a reply to Squil you again made a comment that was not relevant to the thread at hand with regard to number of people.  There Squil explicitly excluded game developers and then you cited game developers. 

and the OP's thread was about that..what squil brought in was an opinion on the development of both technology's of how each party which he was trying to say that Microsoft's development software was more complicated than sony's for development which while is his opinion , is just that an opinion its ok to have an opinion. that still does not take away from the fact that we know.

the processes are done on the xbox360 not Natal, so your :

"NATAL is a neuro-network based simulution and prediction algorithm for human movement layered on top of a 3D spatial detection mechanism."

is still performed on the xbox360's precessor not on Natal itself, thus it's not an issue for Natal but on the same token that's nothing anything that Sony is not doing with the PS3 and it's development for processing algorithm's on the Cell processor. both have to program those chip's

thay may use many seperate API's but they still have to go about programming those to do what they need them to do, saying one software company produces more complicated software over the other is just his opinion.

that still does not make it a fact, which was what he was putting out in this thread.
