Goodbye Natal, Hello Kinect. This is now the official name for Microsoft's device to allow motion control play to the players with no addition hardware needed. We are the controller, as Microsoft says. The Cirque Du Soleil showed Kinect off with a few demos and will be on Tuesday on MTV for us to get to watch. E3 will kick off Monday, or later today since I'm writing this late, so expects TONS of information to hit the web all next week and beyond. I'll be writing some stuff too, most likely wrap ups and compiling the coolest information since there will so much to learn.
Microsoft Had their press conferences yesterday at CES (The Consumer Electronics Show), and had a few new gaming announcements:
-Project Natal will release in Holiday 2010. No word on an official name yet
-Fable III is set to release in Fall 2010
-Microsoft Unveiled Game Room, a destination on Xbox Live and Games for Windows Live to play classic arcade games and customize your own arcade area and visit your friend's space. Games will cost 240-400 points, and can also be played for 40 Points once similar to Arcades. Game Room will launch this spring.
