Project Natal

[REQUIEM]

This report doesnt look good for Aussie gamers as if the price is relative then we are in for a shock. They wouldnt dare try for an over $200 price tag here would they?

Would Swedish retailers have a price for the thing 5 months before its release? I doubt they would release it for almost the cost of an Arcade bundle tbh.

[Spazzola]

This reeks of bullshit. For the sake of Aussie wallets, I'm hoping my nose isn't wrong.

[Natrak]

I simply can't see Microsoft charging that much if they want Natal to be a success. I think the most they could get away with charging for it is 150 AUD packaged with a game.

The nose knows xD

Peter Molyneux has no credit with me - he must always pay in advance, cash only. I am completely impervious to him, so when he says that he's invented some kind of digital boy this firm assertion is refracted into harmless light. Illusions of the kind he proposes are tremendously fragile - it's hard enough to maintain them in raw text, without the idiosyncrasies of the nested recognition systems in play with Milo. Please understand: I love the future, and I long to live there. I want very much to simulate a cognizant digital imp. But this man has broken my heart so many times that it can no longer contain love.

Digital boy?

Molyneux = kiddie fiddler?

PEDOPHILE SIMULATORS!!!

In case anyone on the forum didn't understand all of this this: "Molyneux has lied before about his games, and I cannot trust him again in regards to Natal"

Pretty sure you invented a few words in this wall of text

[Stevorooni]

I'm betting $150 with the Natal equivalent of Wii Sports packed in

[REQUIEM]

$199 bundle with shitty game is my guess.

[Fenrir]

lol u guyz (http://www.penny-arcade.com/2009/6/3/)

[fishfishmonkeyhat]

That guy totally ripped you off Fenrir!

[Allick]

That video with the english lady and the virtual boy has got to be the biggest load of bullshit I've ever seen.

[TrinityJayOne]

Sucks if true, but a major selling point for me selling (lollin') my Wii was that I just don't care for motion controls. Virtual reality sure, but I'd prefer my Mass Effects and Forzas without waggle, thanks.

As games start to require physical skill it'll be interesting to see what the nerds will turn to.

[Bokracroc]

D20 versions of their favourite games.
D&DGTA?

[TrinityJayOne]

Except that only casuals really give a rats about waggle.

Colour me far less interested (though I'm a sucker and will still buy it regardless).

INCREDIBLE! at making those people look very silly. Still not sold on it until they can find a way for it to actually add something to games.

Natal could easily be as precise as the sony controllers with these:

Flashbacks of the powerglove came to mind. Microsoft will still try and rape us Aussies I guarantee it.
