I read somewhere that natal would be supported on the PC too, that would be awesome. I can see eventually PCs having this - death to touch screens!

Am I the only one not overly enthusiastic about this thing? I rather enjoy lying on my bed with my controller and vegging while I save the world.

While it is a possibility I strongly doubt that it would be supported on the pc too, this is a big opportunity for microsoft to boost xbox sales and make loads of cash. Also from what I can gather they will be selling it for dirt cheap and most likely at a small loss.

I doubt that very much. Natal is an Xbox pusher. Supporting it on PC would likely undermine that. It just doesn't make business sense at all.

MEh to project natal. Peter the great thinker who really is not good at applying things:-/
But I might be wrong I hope I am wrong.

Um. Peter Molyneux (well, Lionhead; it's an entire company, not just one guy) is just developing some games for Natal. So are loads of other studios.

Also, I'm so bored of the Molyneux hate. Most people who slag him off have no idea why they're doing it - they just read somewhere that he's full of shit, and repeat it. The worst Peter Molyneux can be accused of is over enthusiasm. And really, at least the guy loves what he does.

Well thats what I meant.

Yes, but I'm not sure why you're down on Project Natal because of Peter Molyneux. As I pointed out, he's not the only guy involved in developing applications for it. He's far from the only guy.
