Forums - Gaming Discussion - The potential of Natal

Hi to all i have seen alot of threads putting down natal as just a gimmick, not likely to work and some people even said it would never be released, but i think if applied to the right genre of games it will be a hit like wii fit.e.g games involving martials arts, boxing, painting,sports games of course, bowling,  fitness games and also i think microsoft will incorporate the use of the controller with some of these games. maybe it won,t be as successful as the wii in terms of acceptance but it could be a success in it,s own right. i don,t think trhing can defeat the wiii at it game but it does not have to your thoughts are most welcome. please wait and see what natal has to offer ok, peace,

I agree. While it does have some major limitations, it also brings forward a lot of interesting possibilities. It will be interesting to see what developers come up with for it.

It definitely won't work with many genres. But I can think of several games to make.



am sure you could implement it with windows...



if it's a cheaper solution vs the ones on PC while working just well, then I might get it for my PC for special purposes, but I'll never plug that thing into the 360.

if it gets me one step closer to a Minority Report type interface, i'm in with both feet.
