You see I really don't care how good Natal is. I just want to point out that playing Natal will make you LOOK like a retard. The Woman in the video proves it all.
I'm just sayin. It makes you look retarded.

Well both the latest playtests have said when your there watching someone playing it, it's amazing to witness. It didnt feel wrong or awkward. But the most Natural experience yet with a game. And that only based on Riccochet.
Worth reading if you saw my thread on it.
Experiencing apparantly is the key here.
Hence my sig is taken as a direct quote from the recent playtesters.

Flailing my arms around and wailing is not a very natural experience for me. Except if maybe i am getting attacked by a swarm of evil death wasps (it happens sometimes...)

Wait until you try it.
The whole quote of Natal a skeptics worse nightmare came from hands on. Basically saying it's easy to hate on Natal when all youve experienced is watching videos of Riccochet and M$ press releases. But playing instantly makes you realise just how much you cant fault it. All hands on from May 27 say it's the most natural experience they had with gaming.
So I guess it's in the playing it we will feel the difference.
Read them up. It's a good read.
But yeah, dont judge before you play.

Have you played Natal yet? just wondering
|
No I havent. But it's obvious people in this thread so far aren't even reading about Natal. Every single question raised here has been answered already. This video has already been posted. And although non of us have actually played it, there are many media hands on who have played the latest build.
We can all reserve our judgement. But if we think for one minute a 1 minute video watching people jump around can make our non existant opinion of Natal better than those who have spent time with it, then everyone here is being ignorant.
Wait till you play and I play it. So far the feedback of those who have played it is fantastic. No lag, no interfering people behind happens, no switchover players hiccups. Accurate movement and velocity of swing rate to. Like I said read up, and the questions asked here are all answered.
Because of this, it seems a pretty wierd thread to make. Almost like it designed to troll. Not saying it definately is. But when the vid was already posted and questions asked that are answered it makes the thread look pretty out of place.

you know, i think the problem is, that most videos of Natal speak a different language then the written testimonies.
Microsoft could have stepped forward a long time ago and show a tech demo that actually proves all that claims that were made. they don't need to give away any secret games if they don't want to, but what keeps them from showing that the tech works as promised?
sure, we will see at E3 i guess?
but what if E3 has 10 booths with ricochet, and another concept video ? ..oh, and clowns 
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
