But whenever I think back about it I never think of it being used in a gaming sense, I think of it picking up that the …
Less than a week ago we told you of the rumours surrounding Microsoft’s controllerless wagglemachine, Project Natal. A November 2010 release, 14 launch games and a sub-£50 price point- All of which is apparently a load of codswallop. Xbox UK Honcho Neil Thompson had this to say when asked about the veracity of the claims "No. They weren’t accurate, they …
