Microsofts Project Natal Plays Burnout Revenge, Breakout

Microsoft’s Project Natal took a step away from the stage
and closer to the living room when Gizmodo’s Matt Buchanan and Mark Wilson took
the system for a test drive.

While the preview did consist of some of the same
style of tech demos we saw on Monday, the exciting part involved playing
Burnout Revenge, an existing 360 game, with the system. The game was able to
run even with Natal‘s processing
overhead, controlled via an air steering wheel and moving feet forward and
backward to represent the gas.

Despite their dedicated efforts to get the
system to hiccup, Gizmodo was impressed with the device, commenting on how
natural and polished the experience felt. Despite the usual pre-production
glitches, Natal seems ready to take
on the gaming world whenever it comes out. Video after the jump.
