I just saw the trade show demo; that looks pretty impressive. Finally a little innovation coming from the good old evil empire.

I play a lot of video games that let me do things I'm not physically capable of doing.

While some of it seemed cool (like the guy tracking you as he talked) a lot was meh IMO

I think that's for the 360, not a next-gen xbox.

The idea is great but I don't see how they can do that much tracking with real-time responses in the game. I saw the soccer demo which looked pretty cool, but all of the stuff in that mock-up? I'd be awesome if they pull it off!

which is cool, I can keep my current xbox360 and just add on that little sensor thingy  :D

oh wait, but then I'd have to exercise and stuff. hmm...

wow. impressive.
Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
