PS3 Motion Controller vs Xbox 360 Project Natal

PS3 controller is exactly the same as a wii mote. Project Natal is completely different. You can controll everything in a game with your entire body. You can kick! Sony cant compete with Nintendo on the same exact thing 3 years later. Sony cant even compete with Xbox

I believe natal is more creative, but we must see if it can work well. As for ps3, it is very much like wii, but it seems more precise. They both look very groundbreaking though.

Project Natal by far! I am definitely biased, but I love the idea of controller free gaming! I am fairly certain that the concern of actual playability with Project Natal will be for naught, I’m just concerned with the possible pricing and release date.

EyeToy?

the ps3 motion controller is the wii motion plus with a pink ball at the end!

To me Project Natal is the PS Eye with better software. Sony’s motion controller is by far the best in my opinion.

As Sony said, some things are not possible without buttons (especially shooters). I really think that is true, and the fact that there are no buttons for Project Natal will be it’s failure.

Here’s what I think about the motion control system from Micorsoft and Sony:
Sony: Built for being used with games (any game). Playstation Eye would be used by itself for video conferencing.
Microsoft: Built for casual video chat, not very well designed for a lot of games due to the fact that there are no buttons (kinda hard to shoot a gun the way theirs is).

oh and sure the PS3 one is similar to the Wii controller in the sense that it uses controllers, but Sony’s uses a camera, and the two controllers are not tethered together via a wire.

I think the New PS3 controller is better but i also think the project natal is good. they have their pros and cons…

PS3: Sure it’s like the Wii controller with a colored ball at the end, but it uses a camera, and it alot more precise and accurate. Okay, fine… it probably isn’t as cool as the Xbox feature, but the PS3 eye is practically the exact same as the Xbox’s project natal. Xbox just has more features and a little bit better software.

Xbox 360: The next step to virtual reality game play i think. you can use your whole body jsut to control basically everything on the console, but without buttons, certain games would be pretty hard to play.

All this hasn’t been released yet, and it has only been shown in videos and live, but has anyone in the audience actually tried it out? things like the project natal, will probably have a lot of issues and problems, same with the new motion controllers for the PS3, but i think project natal will have a heck load of problems and glitches and might not work as well…

i think the new feature for the PS3 will cost less than the project natal, i think that natal will probably cost more than the actual consol itself…

my vote goes to the ps3 motion control,its a lot more feasible option, they even demoed its use in fps,rtg-fps,art etc n i can imagine myself playing many more genres of games.yeah its quite similar to wii but thats gonna work in its favour coz its much more ripe mode of gaming…
Better than wii not only bcoz of precision(z axis,1:1 motion capture n stuff) bt also bcoz ps3 hs a better processing power,n its HD
xbox’s project natal luks like a repitition(a better attempt though) of wat sony did with eyetoy(it had motion capture n voice recognition using a headset)..its got a visible lag,requires a seperate processor,there isnt any way u cn move about in a game or use precise motion of hand eg.painting using a brush,commands using fingers etc its based on more of gross motion of the limbs,its still not practical…it surely will n is encountering road blocks

there is one more problem both projects will use processor power so it is very possible that the graphics will be reduced this is a serious problem

Natal is not the far better system, it the more ambitious project. It’s still early in development and nothing impressive has been shown live yet.

PS3 Motion on the other hand is a more down to earth system, and it already shows what it can be used for in live demos. It looks very precise and responsive.

What has been show with Project Natal so far is nothing more than what you can do with the PS EyeToy, I mean kicking balls and spraying paint on a wall. That’s early stage for a product, but like I said, It’s the most ambitious of the three, not necessarily the better one.

The PS3 Motion also has full use of tracking your body like Natal but the sw does not track in 3d like Natal, but for that you have the Motion controllers on the PS3 Motion, so PS3 motion is like a combination og Wii Motion and Natal, though the camera tracking is less advanced than Natal, but the controller tracking is much much better and precise also it has triggers on the controllers.

Alot of ignorance commenting here. Read up on Project Natals tech, and then come back and try to argue that it’s like Eyetoy. That way you will graduated from babbling idiot to intentional liar.

Natal looks good but it may not happen exactly the sam becose ITS A CONSEPT the PS3 Motion is allredy in proto type

OH MY GOD! Are you guys nuts? Eyetoy!!!!!!! PS2!!!!!!!! AKA you guys saying that Sony is ripping off the wii with the wiimote is like saying Microsoft is ripping of the PS2 with the Eyetoy.
God you guys can’t get anymore stupid can you!?! And in my personal opinion, the EyeToy is better, as stated at E3, you need buttons.
Plus, using your voice in “Project Natal” is just stupid.
You can’t use it at night.

PS3 motion control is just a Wii controller with the use of camera which will work on both hands. Natal works full body. This is well improvement by MS not just copy paste by Sony. I think, as a PS3 fanboy, I got too ashamed when I meet my 360 friends. Who say MS only copy paste, Sony does also. Its just wii control with a light which seems like a sex toy. I have to admit MS pulled something extraordinary. I guess, If someone want to play with motion control, they gonna play Wii instead of PS3. and about the Milo..well, we see science fiction movie that in future we have a AI, then this is the start.. may be buggy first time but will be great in future. Sony put motion on their control when they see Nintendo doing at first and not copying with some extra feature..while MS do R&D and show us some magic. I think, MS strategy is better than Sony.

In response to all of you Natal haters I really think you had your eyes closed the whole time because a game without buttons is totally possible with the technology that Natal brags about. For a first person shooter all you have to do is pretendto hold a gun with one hand and move your finger on the trigger with the other. With the accuracy of the Natal it can pick up even the smallest movements. Using sign language people have been able to communicate with their hands and have defined an entire language. I think just by moving our hands and body in a game we can tell the game to do anything that a regular controller can accomplish. The Natal also has voice recognition that you can tell the game what you need like a weapon change or to reload your ammo.

You were also talking about how early in the stages the Natal was in developement, well if you watch the tech demos which one looks better? The Sony demo looked crappier with its low graphics and showing technology that the wii could already accomplish since it\’s release. I know you might think it has better tracking but wii also came out with the wiimotion plus that looks equivalant to the tech Sony showed but they are releasing that this summer. I would like some examples of why the sony controller is better than the Wiimotion plus because why would I fork any more money over for somthing that the wii can accomplish. The only advantage to the system, not the controller, is that the PS3 has better graphics but if you have seen The Conduit for Wii you can tell tht the wii has come a long way.

Both are in development and if anything sony has more to prove to customers because if you want a motion controller to waggle in front of your tv you already have a wii but if you would like to try a a true next gen experience without a controller and buttons, people will want to try the Natal.

dude seriously people need to stop acting like playstation eye never existed. All Sony has to do is write a code and the ps eye can do face recognition. It already has a built in microphone. Natal is not ground breaking at all, in fact, 360 owners who bought a vision cam now have to throw it away. Let’s face Sony’s motion controller is Wii motion plus(plus) that’s all. I’m a ps3 owner but look at the facts, Microsoft is in a better position to steal Wii install base. The 360 is cheaper than the Wii and has a larger library. We all know microsoft is going to actually introduce a controller for it. There you have it people. Cheaper than the Wii, better graphics, easier way to meet up with friends, and netflix. The instant 1080p thing is a freaking joke, anyone with a brain knows that’s not possible (atleast yet). Sony won’t stand a chance until it drops that price point.

As has been said by some of the posters here, but seems to have been missed by the video games press, is that Natal does nothing that can’t be done on the EyeToy. There’s absolutely no reason why Milo wouldn’t work on the PS3, although I don’t know if there’s a market for a paedo-sim on any console (or at least I hope there isn’t).

Also, didn’t anyone actually notice how flaky the whole Natal thing is? In the mocked-up videos it was working perfectly, but when the guy was interacting with his Mii (or whatever they’re called on 360), it was spazzing out.

The biggest question is why Microsoft doesn’t realise that Natal won’t attract a single new gamer to the system?

I nevered really appreciated the wii due to almost being knocked out when watching my friends play baseball. You know when yall swing wildly.

Now you have xbox adding the ability for people to kick your head off.

It used to be only the thumbs that get buised when you play games. Now you can get black eyes and broken ribs from playing. Playing games are becoming physically unsafe. LOL

Seriously, Sony and Nintindo just Shat themselves, M$ took a concept(motion control) an took it a miles beyond anything in the past. These 2(sony,Nintindo) brought us controllers that haven’t truly advanced motion gaming in anyway. You have to be a fanboy to not see Natal is nothing like Eyetoy and a <18yo idiot who does not see the tech behind such a device. State of the art motion control, and 3-d recognition software that has never been seen outside the military is coming to a 360 distributer near you.

Sony saying you “need” a controller is like damn we Fucked up bad and had no idea M$ would do something other than Replicate wii’s success with a motion controller.

Did you guys not fully understand the Milo Demontrastion, it not only recognized the “FUCKING TONE” of her voice, but scanned and seen that she was down!!! and it did this at least 2-3 times during the demo. when he reached up and grabbed that paper which look to be the same size and shape and COLOR or the paper she held i left the room.

Natal is 3-D recognition, which she probably could have handed him a basketball,baseball maybe even a marble, hell been better and hilarious is she handed him a wii and a Ps3 and he chucked them into the pond and said what do you need those for you have a 360 and Natal

to address more idiotic comments, Saying instant HD isnt possible, and a joke shows your a fail idiot who cant seem to understand that technological advances double about every 6 months. 1080p streaming takes about a 12.5mbps downstream and with most companies pretty much offering 15mbps as basic downstream speed it easily possible.

Natal and its software have probably been in development as soon as nintindo announced the wii and to say that anyone of them will come close by next e3 or 3years from now is and idiot. M$ has both the money and resources unlike sony to continually advance their tech,and software.

One thing sony has a track record of doing is designing SKU after SKU of a system and then peripherals parent compatible with each one. happened when psx went to ps1 ps2 went to slim psp went to slim and sure to go will do something both those don’t,and for ps3 the just dropped the whole idea, how do you make a system with a hard drive that has to do a mandatory install for the majority of its game and not have the ability to buy and extra hard drive; maybe you fanboys don’t know you cant ever buy a new hard drive for your ps3. glad it doesn’t have many AAA or decent game titles to chose from or their would actually be some complaints on this issue.

im laughing at comments like this. The ps3 motion is nothing close the the wii controller. the wii controller detects the screen on your tv. ps3 eye detects the pink ball and could also detect movement( which is showed in some of the eye toy games that is in the playstation network ). It is way different. By the ps3 Eye detecting the pink ball, it creates a more precise and accurate movement. yall gotta research more about these things. but in my oponion we are gonna have to see which is better by testing it. all we seen were presentations. u never know which one works well. and plus i read that the natal is having problems with depth and some type of axis.

PS3 is better because the ps-eye is will do similar things to project natal and it al ready has but microsoft is copying sonys eye-toy and improved it, but sony will soon have a update on the softwares which will do both things that microsoft and nintendo will do.PS – Everyone is copying everyone.LOL

TO ALL PS3 AND 360 OWNERS THAT ARE BIASED TOWARDS THERE CONSOLES!!

I own both 360 and ps3

My vote goes to the 360 natal, alot of people say it copies the eye toy but the natal has facial recognition, built in microphone what understand commands and memorizes your vocal pattern!

The ps3 motion detector just realy pissed me off after seeing the natal, playstation seemed like they hadnt even bothered trying to top nitendo, playstation where just happy copying and making a few tweaks!

for some reason i cant realy put my finger on i always feal microsoft constanly deliver new and exiting things.

constant LIVE updates: movies, avitars, party chat and soon sky, facebook and twitter and yes i do have to pay £30 quid a year but i can honestly say its the best £30 i spend all year

The main reason i bought a xbox was because at first i worried GTA would be a ps3 exclusive and i knew metal gear solid would definatly be a exclusive. but the 360 got GTA on board and now have Metal gear!

Sorry sony but my ps3 is goiong on Ebay
Take a leave from microsoft and get some imagination!!

Project Natal has an on board processor so it will use very little processing power of the actual 360 system.

Ps3 as we all know is an absolute powerhouse and still has to be peaked in processing power, so I’d say this could run with a very very slight drop in graphics performance.

Most likely both will use reduced graphics due to the games for each being more simple, and there-go graphics to represent that for the “family” and “casual” gamers that both companies are trying to steal from Nintendo.

Both look like they are going to bring some fresh air to their respective consoles.

But seeing as I don’t own a PS3 I’m more interested in Natal. However Microsoft are going have to release further peripherals (such as a glove-like controller) with buttons for me to bother with it. I DO NOT fancy shouting “SHOOT” every time I want my character to do it

I recommend you read up on project Natal’s technology before you call it a rip off of the eye-toy or that it cannot function during “night”.

It uses not only a camera but also a 3D depth sensor, and it’s microphone is extremely intelligent as it can pinpoint the direction of a sound source. It also will work in “low light” conditions because of the depth sensor.

Neither are “Rip-offs”. They are further developments within their technology areas, the same as the Eye-toy was (as in it wasn’t an original idea but a further development and commercialisation of a technology).

Natal has Three dimensional face and body recognition, plus due to its advanced microphone with a little bit of coding it can recognise voice “tone” as shown in the Milo video.

No amount of coding will enable the Eyetoy to do either of these things.

Please learn to research before assuming you know how a product “works” and that it is immediately the same as another.

Really? You honestly think that the eye-toy will have 3d sensing capability/ 3D face + Body recognition (even in low lighting conditions) plus vocal recognition and pin-point sound sourcing from any area in a room?

Not to mention adaptability to objects in the room such a sofas etc?

Please please please tell me that you are just a young and naive boy who is just very enthusiastic about his console of choice? Otherwise, I think you need an IQ check and a biopsy to be certain you are not brain dead.

What is with the utterly biased PS3 owners on this website? They seem to swarm here in their droves!

Sony eyetoy – a basic webcam with tracking and motion detection software built into the console (not camera) system. Voice recognition possible through headset only.

Project Natal – A co-operative 3D Depth sensor + high resolution VGA camera using an on board processor with proprietary 3D face and body recognition software with highly accurate motion tracking capability (reportedly includes finger motion) which can detect and track up to four people completely seperately. Built in multi-array microphone which can detect your position in a room and has high fidelity voice recognition (without the need for a headset)

Yup, you’re right…. completely the same product.

However, now that I have completed my fill of sarcasm today I can talk about other things:

1)You forget the fact that games will be DESIGNED AROUND these peripherals, NOT the other way around.

2)I severely doubt that the new controls will be suitable for the vast majority of previous X360 OR PS3 games.

3)In fact, the only thing I can even remotely agree with you comment is the lack of buttons with Natal which could really limit the complexity and longevity of games designed for it.

for natal if you want a sword just use a stick
a gun just use a plastic toy gun

It is up to the game developer to require an install. You can upgrade your PS3 hard drive. It is that Sony just did not mandate you buy the new hard drive from them. The PS3 is compatible with just about any 2.5-inch SATA notebook harddisk.
To say the PS3 does not have many AAA or decent game is an opinion. There are games I would lover to play on PS3 ,360 and the Wii it is just I am not made out of money and must pick the ones that interest “me” the most. As i am a hobby gamer and can not spent too much on time or money on it.

Now back to topic. Both have there ups and downs it all depends on how the games look and fill.

Playstation already had the same basic technology as natal back in the PS2. You cant play call of duty for example with natal, it just wouldnt work. It’s goin to be the same as the eye toy, only a little more advanced… its still going to have the same lame genre games. Im not saying its better or worse, because Microsoft could definately do something with it. But i am saying if the idea pretty much failed with the ps2, i dont think it will work out for the xbox.

Okay Zenmn. Once you finish blowing Bill Gates maybe people will take you seriously.

Yes, Natal is more advanced than the PS2 eye toy. Sony however has a massive buisness that they can assign a department to research the few components they are lacking and get their old eye toy up to standards. Natal looks cool, but I’d like to see a demo of the fine movements they say they can trace. The demo shows the skeleton tracking taking broad tracks. I’d be blown away if they can show individual finger tracking. And Milo just looks way too scripted. Way way to scripted. Notice how Microsoft said people got to meet Milo at E3? How come those videos weren’t released.

Playstation’s Motion Controller is a novel idea. No matter what people say the one-to-one motion tracking will help it leg up on the Wii, and I can see Sony actually developing games that will do the motion sensor more justice for hardcore gamers. Can you say duel wielding pistols? Seeing as they will be releasing next year they’ll also have time to possibly incorporate a better camera if they want to.

Wii, they will pretty much keep their niche. I don’t see neither Sony nor Microsoft coming out with games such as Pony Land, but Nintendo has no problem selling to an extremely young audience. Give them a few years and game developers will peak out the graphics for their games, but they will never rival Microsoft or Sony. Wii is cheap, and easy to pick up so young families will probably stay with that.

And this is why Wii will has won the console war.

Dudes,ps3 motion control is worse than the traditional controler…its like holding two controlers in two hands just like the wii…i dont know how people compare it with natal but i say that they r totaly difrent products…playing hary potter games with ps3 motion control looks like the wands used by harry potter.

The PS3 Motion Controllers are by FAR more precise than Project Natal, as I can see many of you are fan boys, the PS3 Motion Controllers have better tracking because of an input sensor and camera tracking therefore most accurate.
But the Natal Camera is more creative but if you’ve heard of EyePet, the Sony PlayStation has always been more creative from the start!
Ratchet & Clank, EyePet, EyeToy, Voice, Facial, Emotion, Smile and Laughter detection! You gotta admit, Sony’s won the Console Wars!
The PSOne won it!
The PS2 won it defo!
The PSP, Im uncertain but it was successful!
The PS3 is gettin a boost!
The Xbox was a FLOP!

You guys have no imagination lets say you want to shoot a AK47 with natal all you have to do is position your hands like your holding a AK47 that easy. You don’t have to yell SHOOT

Xbox natal and Ps3 eye motion controller technology definitely gives us a good gaming experience but i think ps3 might come out better in future. I agree that ps3 eye dont look cool now since the software used is junk. ps3 eye can do the same think like xbox natal since both the systems have the same technology(motion technology with face recog and body motion detection) and ps3 eye has got an extra button tracking as well.

The software used in ps3 eye might be junk right now but they will come up with nice feature in fure….
Its in beta anything can happen

i am not any fanboy
natal is just ps2 eyetoy but instead showing your body and face it shows the back of your avatars body.
ps3 eye is same as natal but it uses a motion controller and the most unique thing is that it can detect ur gender so transexuals can nout hide from us.

So whats to become of ps3′s break apart contoller then???

Natal is not having to much problems with depth but it does screw up when you put you wand behind the other. it still makes for some fun thing like they showed at e3 with the racing and the full body games. it would be for more casual and party play.

PS3 motion controllers are like next-gen Wii motes. more percise and use both the psEYE and six axis technology to make for ultimate acuracy. and will also allow for first person shooting and more hardcore games as seen at e3.

both are great and have thier own bugs but i’m still lokin forward to getting both even thouugh i’m a sony fan because it’s got better games, free online play, it’s faster, uses blu-ray, and has a 0.2 failure rate

about your Natal comment saying has anyone tested it out.
you can look on youtube and see that guy from the tv show “Chuck.” playing on natal (not on the show but in a video displaying its features.)

PS3 is superior

i rather enjoy the prospect of a hand-free gaming experience in Project NATAL, however, after much criticism, i am starting to doubt the reliability of this product.

I much agree though, that the Sony Motion Controller, or “Sphere”, is more reliable and is likely to be big hit for PlayStation fans. But for the rest of us, it just looks like a Wii remote carbon copy, with improvements.

First, i must fairly state that i am a Xbox fan, but there is no way to be more just in my argument, because Project NATAL, just seems to be leagues ahead of any other gaming technology.

Project NATAL is bringing the outdoors into our living rooms, and has been able to draw in a new crowd of gamers. People have said that the use of NATAL software makes you exhausted and gives you body aches, but thats just what it should be doing, forcing you to get up off your seat and physically join into the fun.

Right now what i am worried about is accidentally destroying my furniture while engrossed playing Fifa on NATAL!

To be honest, i own a 360 So therfore obviously i am liking natal..i can see where you guys are coming from yes theres no buttons to shoot and that, but thats the point natal is innovative…it is not the ps eye as the ps eye was very basic only using the outside of ur body as a ‘barrier’ to interact..natal uses your enitre body…the price was announced 50 GBP for natal..supporting 5 people or wateva it is, dont u need 1 wand for each person, i can see the wands costing more, as for moving how are you suposed to move with the ps wand…it doesnt have an analog stick?
both systems have questions that need to be answered but thats the great thing innvotian is there which if the game developers can come up woth an idea to solve these then we could have a fun few years of sensor controllers.

why are you comparing the PS2 camera to project natal, the original xbos didnt even have a camera you could get, and the PSEye includes a microphone, and the camera for project natal is just another $200 attachment your going to have to but for xbox users were as the PSEye is only $39 at walmart.

ps3 are so better than xbox 360 u dont have to pay for o line and xbox 360 are crap they allways break if u think ps3 are better than xbox 360 if u do have ps3 add my my name is lazyboy1410

I think that the Sonys, Microsofts and Nintendos way of controling the console is very creative and each way is special in its own way.I like every gameing sistem from Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo and I have the Sony Playstation Portable, Sony Playstation 3, Xbox 360 elite(and an iPhone)and I do not have a Nintendo console but it is cool.I do not have a Playstation Eye,or a Natal thing(i do not think anybody has a Natal or whatever it is).

You guys talk so much as if you have already played and owned an emotion controller and the Natal. Please…they are not even out. Too early to justify by the publicity advertisement you seen in You-Tube and games sites. All I can say is wait and see. Hold on to your cash. Dun defend or praise too early. Seat back kids and watch your papa and mama for the money to buy when it is out.

NO Offense dude, but, the motion Controller of Sony is waaaay different than the nintendo one and its better than project natal if you research. It can catch every movement you made, in example Boxing, if your body goes backwards the dude in the TV will do the same, as same as every punch you do (if you dont get it, try searching in sonys official resources, mag. website. etc.) PS3 eye detects the pink ball and could also detect movement( which is showed in some of the eye toy games that is in the playstation network ). It is way different. By the PS3 Eye detecting the pink ball, it creates a more precise and accurate movement. You all gotta research more about these things . What Im trying to say is that Sony is waaay better than wii in graphics in technology and you know everything. yes, p.natal is great. but I think sony is in the same power as microsoft and has better things (some games, BLU RAY! Online! ) I even think its better, it is. oh and yeah, play PS3, I know you havent, cause you critic too much without knowing..RESEARCH DUDES! Sony ROCKS!

Think People, Microsoft, xbox… are you serious?? Sony is waay superir than all of does crap! HA!

Dude, are you serious?? The Project of Sony its the same thing as Project natal, but better, with better games, graphics, sound, online, dude. an improved wii mote?? what the hell? well, it is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more improved. damn xbox fanboys, they only think of xbox they never like to read other consoles stuff, research dude.

Project Natal is far more superior. PSEye still needs a controller but apart from that major difference nearly everything is the same.

Are you serious? If i wanted to exercise, i would get to a gym. Im not looking for a reason to get up and move my butt around when i have a perfectly good remote. Isn’t that what they were invented for anyhow? I think the idea of involving your full body movement into the game is, in a nut shell, a nifty idea; but come on. I work 8 and a half hours a day and i don’t want to come home to relax and be “Involved” in the game im trying to enjoy. I want to sit there and just RELAX. The Wii has had little success in comparison to PS3 and the red ring of death machine. Mostly cause there are way too many lazy people out there, including myself, that just want to sit down to enjoy the next scene. Im just saying that when you start getting too involved in what youre playing the gaming experience can only be enjoyable till you get tired and want to take a seat.

Im just saying that when you start getting too involved in what you’re playing, the gaming experience can only be enjoyable till you get tired and want to take a seat. Call me lazy, but all in all, you can’t expect people to play every game they have standing up. And if you’re going to be spending $200 on a add on to your console, you better be expecting that your game library is going to include low graphic and childish games. I mean isn’t that why we get the more elite consoles is to play the games that Wii isn’t able to produce. Wii did it second and did it well. Lets let them have their cake while we eat our chocolate covered brownies.

A couple of thimgs to add to the argument:
1) With Natal I wonder how well it will work in low lighting levels becasue i hate olaying games with all my lights on!
2)Becasue the wii mote and PSarc are similar in the fact that have buttons this would lend some games that work well on the Wii over to the PS3 system which is a benefit. Developer will be starting from scratch on Natal.

I think that the games you see on Natal will not be too different from what you see on the Wii fit, because it has the ability to track you feet and arms, similar to the wii fit.

At the end of the day, you will buy the peripheral for whatever system you currently own, unless you’re made of money and have no life. Natal and Arc, do not warrant the purchase of a new system if you already own one, in my opinion.

Until we see what games will be available for these peripherals, and how well they perform, there’s no point of saying which technology is better or more evolutionary. Do you buy it for its technical specs, or for the games available for it?

I have yet to see any videos of the Natal showing me a game or something that I would actually want to pay money to do/play. Yes, there may be a lot of potential for Natal, but talk is cheap. I’d say there are many more questions surrounding Natal, and many more doubts. Think about it. The only knock there is on the PS3 Arc is that it’s too similar to the Wii, but at least it works right? On the other hand, who knows what will happen with Natal. I won’t keep my hopes up though.

Look for a lot of shovelware to arrive on both. Motion controls imho are only good for parties with multiplayer (think Wii). Single player motion control, especially full body control is just ridiculous.

natal is the far superior project, and the ps3 arc will most certainly be better than the wii, we are talking about tech here, and natal is in the top 10 for INVENTIONS in 2009, it will detect individual finger movements for fuck sake, the ps3 demonstration looked rather good but no new groundbreaking tech included, and face it the only rreason i bought a ps3 was because i loved my ps2, i can admit i brought the wrong console ( i really want ME2 more than anything right now), but anyway, we will still be playing MW2 when this come’s out so i don’t see the point.

I think that P. Natal is going to be the better product. What sony is doing is combining a wiimote with their playstation eye, this would make it more precise but it would have flaws. For example it would not be able to capture full body movement like the P. Natal. And stop comparing it to the eye toy on the PS2. Technology advances in a matter of months thus the camera and technology is far superior than it was then. A one to one motion detecting camera is not something that far feched as you might think. The reason they have problems is not the hardware but the software. This is also why I think that microsoft will be better overall making software is what they are known for.

The PS3 wand is pixel-perfect when it comes to control, pressure and distance.
As we have many young artists at home that painting demo appeals to us as the PS3 wand can be configured into many different types of drawing media.
To be creative and have fun drawing and learning stuff using the PS3.
I just hope it also comes with a strap.
I still have yet to see if Natal has that kind of accuracy.

Ok everybody are u in a right state of mind don't u knw that natals recognition is soooo not as good as it seems there is mo way it's going to be like it is on that video demo thing but ps3 motion controller (playstation arc) does seem like itl be wat it shows it seems more possible to be that accurate natal seems like it will have alot of problems not to mention that xbox 360 dosent ccompare to ps3s 9 processors so natal will have alot of laggg or reduced graphics plus the games would be a bit harder ro play… As said in e3 you neeed some buttons to play games or itl be just sad or to hard to play anyways Sony is still probably going to make playstation arc much better by the time it's released. Who agrees with me? Alll add my psn whoopdido2u2

natal is copying pseye not eyetoy.
the one on ps3 not ps2

Ok I’m sorry but I guarantee half of you are biased

Well me having played both a PS3 And Xbox 360 and PS1/PS2 and original Xbox, I have to say I prefer the Xbox in terms of both style and playability. The Dualshock Ps3 controller does’nt fit comfortably into your hands as the xbox controller does. Let’s get this straight, Sony is big, but come on. Microsoft is way bigger, It is capable of making tech and games just as if not more sophisticated than Sony

No I’m not a fanboy but I’m willing to bet that Project Natal is much more well funded, if you read sevral articles it states that more or less every game company has got hold of the Project natal and are already in the process of making several games for release. Ubisoft for example is making 10! games for P.Natal release

you lot are all sad bastards it is a fucking games console if you like ps3 u like ps3 if u like xbox u like xbox so shut the fuck up and stop moaning are u gunna die if project natal is better than the ps3 thing no or vise versa so u people are sad n need to get a life
