It could be several years before gamers see developers like BioWare incorporating Project Natal into flagship projects -- development kits only landed in their laps a few weeks ago -- but one arm of the influential Canadian RPG studio has gone on record with GamesIndustry.biz about its interest.
"Yeah. I got a demo of Project Natal before E3. So I got to check it out hands-on at EA with some other folks, and I thought it was pretty cool," said BioWare general manager and co-founder Ray Muzyka. " […] Natal looks exceptionally interesting as a platform extension. I think it's a really powerful idea."
"I think it applies very much to an emotionally-engaging narrative and a story-driven game," continued Muzyka. "Fulfilling characterisation more completely in games is I guess a way to achieve that. So it's something we'd be interested in exploring. We haven't made any announcements or anything, but it's an intriguing technology that I think we'd want to see more of and see what we could do with it."
The idea of a Project Natal-supporting space-faring RPG in the vein of Mass Effect fused with the character interaction prototyped in Peter Molyneux's Milo demo at E3 sounds good to me. Too bad it's going to be a long, long time before that happens, but I can wait.

Use my head? calm the hell down? fat and dead? Wow you're a presumptuous, pompous ass......Thanks Smartguy81 for explaining what I thought was pretty rudimentary statement. I guess CujoSWAoA likes to jump to conclusions, but back to the matter at hand, If I want exercise I'll going outside.......it has nothing to do with being lazy or a couch potato. I watch movies or play games to relax.

I believe he is lamenting the fact that games will be designed with motion controls first and then somehow if applicable mapped to a controller. I agree with him, I'd rather relax and play rather than wake my arms around to play a game. Some of us like to relax after working all day.

Ok G4 first you hate natal but now that bioware signs on your all for it. Most of you writers are short-sighted. And before you get angry I wrote most. Motion control is the future. But dont worry couch potatoes there will still be plenty of games for us to sit and drink beer while we play.

Ahem. G4? Why is this natal garbage on the PS3 page? Yes we all know it sucks, no need to put it in everyone's face. I also agree with alot of comments here too. I'd rather sit on my couch than jump around like an idiot as if I were microsoft's puppet.

When you read this you truly think that it says "Your handheld controllers are all going to die!"? Come on man... use your head... its just another "option" if you so choose to use the damn thing. Calm the hell down... you'll be able to be fat and long dead before handheld video games ever ever EVER go away.

DAMN IT.........I like video games for the reason that I can sit on my couch, relax and play. This motion crap is getting ridiculous....

That "emotionally-engaging narrative and a story-driven game" part he said kinda sounds to me like the next era of adventure gaming.

Yeah, right? Will take a while that's for sure. I do think is at another level, it will be interesting.
How long you think before they are ready to unleash?? I'll say one year, don't wanna go OVER cause it can take a while but UNDER will be nice.
It really is something new, should be unique.
