To all the people who said Project Natal has lag issue, I think this is pretty cool and we still have 7 months until launch.

http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/15/microsoft-gives-us-a-look-through-project-natals-eyes-video/

Ilan Spillinger, Microsoft's Xbox 360 VP, was on hand in Tel Aviv yesterday for a showcase of Project Natal. Although there wasn't much in the way of groundbreaking stuff, the resulting video does show off the motion control system's gender recognition (done through Natal's facial recognition ... you filthy child) and ability to track two players within the frame at the same time. A tipster from the audience tells us that earlier lag issue have been eradicated, although some jitter was indeed apparent when the second person stepped into Natal's field of vision. Either way, it's looking like Microsoft's Xbox 360 peripheral is progressing well toward its release near the end of this year. Go past the break to see for yourself.

The point of this thread is not that she was jumping, its the fact that the camera can recognized gender and two people at the same time without much lag.

Wouldn't it be funny if they had Milo working just as good at E3?

I'm not sold on Natal until what they offer at E3

however, that is actually pretty impressive for a gaming console camera

:lol:

I had a rough time translating / listening and understanding those accents, it was as if I was having a flashback to 1-800-4MY-Xbox and my 20+ calls to them.

I'm jumping.

I'm Jumping.

You can go up and down!

Jump in this holiday season. :P

Motion controls are only a gimmick when talking about the Wii. As soon as it hits PS3/360 it's used to claim ownage.

not for me, as soon as a dedicated processor was taken out of the natal I no longer was interested, wasn't ever interested in move, and Wii to own the system I had to take the motion sensing which the majority of good games aren't completely motion sensing reliant any ways. Pseudo 3d tvs are the same I have no interest cause Pseudo 3d gives me headaches.

"Yay! Look at me! I'm dancing around like an idiot when I could be playing this game with more accuracy and efficiency using a controller!"
