Let's get the ball rolling with this:
http://kotaku.com/5562418/project-natal-officially-renamed-kinect-more-games-revealed
Project Natal is now "Kinect". Funny that MS would go so far in emulating Nintendo as to choose an improbable name for their motion control device.
But seriously, I can't help but to have a bad feeling about it. I've always held the belief that there was something to be done with motion control if it was used sparingly and in conjunction with classic controls, and yet the Wii showed us that it was a dire task for the average developer. Kinect's approach is way more extreme since it does away with the controller itself, and it does so on a platform that is not especially amicable to the idea in the first place. Add to that a potentially high launch price and I'm afraid it's not going to be quite the success MS is hoping for.
What do you guys think?
