at the end of the clip you can see that it's named xbox360. this could probably be an add-on (if it's real).

Looks neat up close... I like it for everything BUT the videogames.

A few years ago, we were at a special panel, and we saw the beginnings of this, in which the motion capture device would record you and put you and a friend surfing, or playing volleyball on a giant screen. But i am amazed at how much advanced this new technology has become. Obviously, this isnt just for Xbox, but will eventually bring in television, computer, telephone and more in a box component gadget.

It looks great.... and will eventually be good for all those schmoes who cant get a date Saturday night

At the end of their E3 Keynote Microsoft finally showed off the motion sensor technology that they have been working on for so long called Project Natal. Rather than going with a physical controller that you hold and move they are developing a multiple-angle multiple-camera device with a microphone and some serious new image, motion, voice and facial recognition software.

Not anytime soon... Nintendo is crushing them all... and for good reason. The Wii is the most fun you have with a console.

The PS3 is nice too, I love mine, but my Wii is still the party console.

yeah for kids it's fun
but after a hard day i want to sit there and chill

The True Adonis · « **Reply #12 on:** June 02, 2009, 10:31:35 AM »

Project Natal has a real promising aspect. Think of using this for the Mr. Getbig. It scans your entire body and scales it to size and then captures your motion.

You could have a real virtual posedown with this thing.

Isn't the point of a video game to chill and not be active?

Why do we have gyms anymore when we have this bullshit.

No. The more immersion and interactive by far the better. Pushing buttons and not caring about the story and moral dilemmas are for pattern seeking morons who would be happy playing solitaire or connect four for hours on end.

How will this be played here in the U.S., where we have so many fat fucking people?

Complete bullshit, when I play video games I wanna relax, lying on the sofa with my controller and not jump around in my living room like a monkey.

I mean, I'd rather go out skateboarding instead of jumping in my living room and watch a skateboard on the screen....

What's the sense behind this, that nerds who are too scared to step outside in the real world can experience some movements they wouldn't ever do elsewhere??

Agreed.

Actually, it would be good for a mix of games. The sports related games would be cool, but sometimes you want to play games to relax.

Video games are the great nerd equalizer. If they actually had to PERFORM the kartae kick, it would be a different story.

FREAKgeek · « **Reply #22 on:** June 02, 2009, 11:07:15 AM »

How about a game where you stand naked and dry hump a prostitute?

Very true. I hope there is a way to play it, with a controller. I do my working out at the gym....when I play games, I wanna chill and forget about the world, which includes exercise.

exactly...if i wanna action i would do it life...there is nothing better than playing good ol God of war or Call of Duty in the sofa or under the blankets, and SPECIALLY not having all my family around me seeying me jumping like a phucking ape...The chalenge is mental...

sorry, i know the idea its cool, but i just dont like the concept...video games always envolved through the years, and i want to see that, not a new way to play them. Give me better graphics, better games, better controls, dont make me jump and move myself as i was in a phucking dance class, playing games with 90´s graphics
