After watching Microsoft’s E3 presentation in its entirety back in May I was very impressed by the games on their way to the system. I was getting a bit bored until my favourite director Spielberg walked onto the stage hinting at a new Microsoft gadget.

The conference was then handed over to Lionhead studios where they showed Milo off to the world. The game demo that the woman was playing enabled her to hold a conversation with a boy in the game. A lot of people have said there is no point to a lot of this but to me it seems like the future of gaming.

You are able to actually use your whole body in the games. For example you can hold an invisible steering wheel stepping in and out to accelerate and brake respectively. Everything can become more realstic thanks to the full body control Natal has. This could actually be the future of games altogether not just a fancy wavey wand. Natal is also able to scan real life objects such as a golf club or a football so you can use your own personal things in the game.

If this is released in the way the videos and previews have been put forward to the public then it is going to be one of the biggest leaps in technology we have ever seen. On top of this, at the recent Tokyo game show major developers such as Sega and Capcom have both announced their backing of the hardware and this is on top of all the other major developers which include EA, Activison and of course the expected Microsoft Game Studios.

For more information on this amazing new gadget it might be worth checking out a gadget blog.
