Motion controls are all the rage these days. Nintendo made the concept a hit and it wasn't long before Sony and Microsoft realized the new markets opened by the likes of Wii Sports were too big to ignore. Enter Project Natal, Microsoft's solution to giving people a way to play games without a traditional controller. In fact, there's no controller at all in Natal. It's just a camera that tracks your movements and then translates them on screen. The new piece of technology was unveiled at the Electronic Entertainment Expo in June, but it wasn't until the Tokyo Game Show that Erik got to try it out in person.
Xbox 360 launched 18 years ago and was a generation-defining console that invited many people to jump into gaming for the first time and connect with friends around the world. We’re thrilled people continue playing their favorite Xbox 360 games on Xbox 360, or on newer consoles via Backward Compatibility for supported titles.
"we believe in game preservation"
Remember the media reaction when PlayStation wanted to shut down the PS3 store (but then kept it open)... where is that reaction here?
RIP Xbox 360 digital store and all its games.
It really grinds my gears that they are waiting till 10 days before closing to give the best discounts and the list as of now is 100 or less titles from the massive 360 library
I should have enough points by the weekend to get £25 credit off MS, (hardly ever spend money on xb1), might look at a few of these.
The Xbox 360 store was one of the only advantages the Xbox Series consoles had over the PS5. When I got my series X, I spent more playing Xbox 360 games vs current-gen Xbox games since that was the golden era for Xbox and several titles had enhancements such as 4k resolution and fps boost.
Closing this store will now only benefit the competition.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
Space Invaders Extreme...funny way you play that game with natal.
Cant sit down for that one.
Natal is looking good, should be something interesting once released.
before it comes out like hddvd
