I really, really want that. that is what I've been waiting for a virtual reality game!!!!!!!!!!!

And to top it off its on 360!!!! YAY!!!! :laugh: :laugh:

I saw this on E3 earlier, and it looks quite interesting indeed. Actually seeing a virtual reality game is quite intriguing, however, this new contraptions looks like it could be quite expensive. I will have to do more research and see some more before my final decision on whether or not to save up is made.

Looks pretty cool. It'll also prevent the infamous "Wiimote-whack-to-the-head-while-playing-any-sports-game"

Pfft, ooh you can move around the dashboard by moving your hand, i can do that by moving my finger.

So microsofts thinking out of the box is to steal old ps2 tech, nice.

Holy Crap. That is insane. I realize that Playstation had the Eye Toy, but this is a whole new level. I am guessing that it will work with the basic games that they demonstrated like racing and fighting and then it will expand into more and eventually all games. I am curious how it would work with lets say a Call of Duty game or Bioshock, where you have a lot more things you have to do. This does look a lot better than the Wii.

It would also probably be a lot more expensive than the Wii. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't a TV with an Xbox inside (I never actually saw the 360 itself)

maybe this is the succesor of the Xbox 360

I did some reading about this on cnet.com and found out it uses a camera and so doesn't need a controller. It looks really good and a nice advanced from the Wii motion controller.
