Kinect can foresee gamer movements confirmed

absolutly ridiculous

I'm inclined to think that this is just a part of the game where the character on screen moves automatically  as part of  a reaction to the downed ship... happens in all games, the fact that the guy copies this move is co-incidental.

i.e. the fight is over and it is changing to a short in game "movie"

No surprise here that you are defending Natal main event, considering your history of pro MS posts. But you should really step back and see what is the universal oppinion of the press. Even Xbox exclusive press said that the show was fiasco. And when the "actor" tryies to copy the onscreen movement, the only thing that comes to mind is that he was supposed to. Natal might work very well, but it's far far from what MS made it sound to be.

The presentation was an epic flop and definatelly didn't spark any interest in the gaming community, MS and Natal are laughing stock right now and unless they really do pull of some serious improvements, Natal might be the last nail in MS coffin this generation.

Your post had a bit of credibility until the last sentence gave you away...  

I didnt realise MS where in the coffin and all but one nail was hammered home... get a grip.  Ms are still doing fine and having just passed 40m (which many here thought impossible) with a profitable console are very happy right now.  Ms is building a brand, slowly but surely. Xbox is a very strong  brand in the US now and is on the map everywhere bar Japan.  Next gen they will build on that more.  I expect Xbox to be at least the number 2 brand again in the US next gen above Playstation.

Come back to me after the main show later... and tell me if you still think that MS are dead and buried.

Gave away what? That is some serious paranoia you have going on there...

MS is losing ground quickly, be it sales or popularity wise, PS3 launched later and sells better than Xbox did during the same period since release. It's more and more obvious that the PS3 is the stronger piece of hardware out of the HD twins and hasn't been maxed yet, while the Xbox might've peaked 2 years ago (I'm still waiting for a proof that Gears 2 wasn't be most XBox is capable of). Natal was supposed to keep XBox out there for another 5 years (or atleast that's what MS exec were boasting about prior to E3).

So yes, that looks like a "coffin" to me. I'm not implying that the XBox was fiasco, but at this point, it's pretty much heading towards end of it's cycle. So the last nail to the coffin is pretty good analogy imho.

@sadman What are you on? What gave you the idea of personal attack? Can I have some?
