The internet is buzzing with reports and videos that apparently show that the pre-E3 “Natal Expereince Event” featured pre-recorded Kinect gameplay footage with actors merely copying the movements on screen. At first I can’t say I wasn’t dissapointed. But lets give Microsoft the benifit of the doubt as this event wasn’t for you. That is, if you’re aged 18 or above.
Here’s how I see it. The event, rather than being a hands on showcase for gamers, appears to be a glossy ad for a different kind of audience. Considering they had both Jennette Mccurdy and Sway Calloway as co-presenters and will be broadcasting it on Nickolodeon and MTV this event was never meant to be aimed towards our kind of audience. If you’re reading this, wanted real results from the pre-E3 show and feel a little dissapointed I say lets just wait and see. Lets not jump the gun just yet, folks. Microsoft still have to have there main event and I think that will be something more suited towards our demographic. This event was for something for MTV to play between bouts of The Hills and Pimp my Ride. The Microsoft E3 event should be different and more like something we’re used to.





Microsoft are lying to children…. Tut, tut, tut.
Won’t somebody please think of the children!
I’m sure it was intended more as a proof of concept.
@Will: They had proof of concept last year. This year they need a full working product to show-off, or they will hand this year E3 to Sony on a Silver Platter.
I beginning to worry for Microsoft’s Kinect Event tomorrow.
Glad someone said it. This was a made for TV promo and not the kind of technical expose we as the core wanted but that was the intent. As spoiled rotten brats as most gamers are they think the world revolves around them and the message must be hand tailored to them ALWAYS. I believe MS will be speaking to them today, but it is ridiculous at the over-reaction and pure venom the core are giving this.
@KS1985 Proof of concept of a Star Wars game, not the Natal.
my thoughts go with Chrise, i mean really E3 isnt over & why does everyone hav 2 complain about systems they dont lik with so much vigor instead of being happy 4 the games they do lik?
