Forums - Microsoft - Spanish media playing with Natal. Here are their reactions

We’ve all seen old Project Natal videos showing the primitive E3 09 build of Ricochet that Microsoft keeps showing everywhere until now. Spain got the first look at a newer and improved  build of Natal that even though being far from the final version it showed enough improvement to impress the media. Here we gather all the impressions from the Spain media and what they had to say after playing Project Natal.

Meristation:

” Looking with a little of attention at this demonstration we see it like as almost every one of the promises that were on the table have been achieved. First is the response of the camera and the speed with which captures the movements. Although still lacking a few small tweaks surprising degree of fidelity of our motions and the speed with which these are reflected on the screen.”

Engadget Spain:

” The receiver sensitivity is amazing, being virtually instantaneous response time in single-player game, where you could identify perfectly the force with which to hit the ball, its direction and distance just waving his arms. That little lag almost imperceptible in the single game is somewhat increased when there are two players on screen, but even so, the reaction of the console is also impressive.”

ScoreZero:

” Yesterday i was surprised with the people at Microsoft, despite the typical test demo gallery shattering glass boxes and balls, I saw the camera meets and exceeds all expectations.”

BeeGamer:

“I could not resist to do some breakdance moves seen as reacting to the avatar, and the sequence and movement coordination was perfect.”

Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

yeah i read some web pages that got info on it, seems like it is doing what it should, still need to see more games and a full presentation, E3 come soon plz. I am happy that the delay of the camera and the image is not big, which was my main concern



So the product delivers? Good.

Now we just need the games! Bring on Killer Instinct (I wanna see how buff I can get lol)



It's just that simple.

Starting to get really excited for this.

I really hope they make a  Punch Out style boxing game for Natal. I think that would be the shiznit! I think I could literally get back into shape if I played something like that for a couple hours a day!



Yeah, my problem with that is not it's precision. It's how to play good games on it (and not the shovelware of the shovelware like that ball tech demo). I can't imagine playing anything remotely to close to my taste with it.

But I hope to eat some crow on natal.

High praise indeed.



I'll be getting it just so that I can browse the dashboard and my netflix library with one hand while holding my beer in the other!
