There's no point to the name change, people were cool with Natal.
As for the Kinectimals... awesome.

These games sound dreadfully boring...but there's still more so I'll hold my judgement until everything has been revealed.

I also think Natal sounds much better, Kinect leaves a weird feeling in the mouth o_o;

It's an EyeToy crossed with a Wii. :/ How innovative, Microsoft! To be frank, it ruined Microsoft's conference. I just hope Sony don't make that same mistake today with Move.

Yeah. Well, let's stop focusing on the flop that was microsoft and start looking forward to the potential of Nintendo and Sony. Put you're riot masks on, the awesome is about to hit the fan

I wouldn't say "ruined"... Because it took up about 80% of the whole thing!
It was a big disappointment.


Anyway... I still don't see why everyone is trying to get in on this market if all they're going to do is make adjusted sports type games. The innovation is already gone here, and making these sorts of games ISN'T going to make anyone buy their console any more than they would otherwise (like it did with the Wii to start with). Every console has their own version now, so can we just be done with this craze and move on? (Either to hardcore games or to actual originality in the integration of these controls to games)

Well said. If Sony and Microsoft had had the forsight to tackle the Wii and bring out superior motion controls 2 or 3 years ago, then they may have significantly dented the Wii. But it is way to late, the Wii is huge and no creepy girl with an animated tiger is going to change that now. Instead, Sony and Microsoft should have tried to ridicule the Wii, emphasising its bad features and promoting their own better consoles. But they instead concentrated on the battle between themselves these past 5 years, and Nintendo stormed off and won the console war without taking part. :/
