    Maybe because it looks like a certain 'magic wand' from Hitachi?

    Not surprising, most have experienced how rubbish Wii is and are expecting the same pap from the HD bunch,

    Oh no! What's the betting that Sony will blame it all on pirates and lobby for a law that forces everyone to buy one? Even if they don't own a ps3.

    Last night my other half got excited about Natal, which means I now need to buy an Xbox 360 to make use of it!

    Oh well ;)

    I was very impressed at how responsive the motion controller is in the six axis pad when I got it. However, after trying to use it in a game I quickly decided it wasn't fun. I don't like the Wii at all so Im certainly not looking to buy a controller which emulates it

    Well I'm looking forward to seeing it in action with some games designed for it.

    I'd much prefer new consoles than all this gimmicky crap like Natal and the rest....

    Maybe then, with new more powerful consoles using DX11, PC games and gfx development will resume instead of being stuck in their current 2005 DX9 era rut....going nowhere...

    Been there with the wii, it sucked. life goes on......Maybe just maybe 3D tennis would be good. Tho I start to wonder what applications these controllers have. With the wii it was was around like a retard until something happened. Actual realistic movements played little part. Then all the games became stagnant. Tho racing games and shooting games like house of the dead work well on wii.

    i agree with hustler.
    would much rather see next gen consoles and advancement in gaming development then see motion control added to this current gen.

    i have zero interest in waving at the screen or pretending i am in a raft. or what not. even on my ps3. i disabled the tilt motion detection. i know i am not in a car. i don't pretend to be by turning my hands...

    just microsoft and sony trying to hack into the family network nintendo found itself in.
    but i am sure.
    both natal and move will be just like the wii... awesome at first. though.
    after initial awe. motion devices will become just an expensive paper weight/dust collector.

    a complete waste. in my opinion.

    Of course many arent showing an interest as no one really knows yet how well the devices will be implemented. I imagine most are seeing nothing more than a Wii in HD and not a great deal more. Once these devices are released though and people see if they can be put to new and unique ways to improve/enchance gaming then they may drum up more interest.

    You only have to read the comments here to see how much negativity there is towards these devices but you never know, maybe Sony/MS will suprise us!

    (P.S. I'm not a fan AT ALL)
