Subject: Perfect use for Natal in Halo: Reach

So what if in Halo: Reach the processing power of Natal could be re-routed from the motion sensors and instead improve the graphics of the game while still having it run on a silky smooth frame-rate and have normous levels? Awesome?

Mind, body and soul, possibly my sole properties

Or we could think logically and see that that is not at all possible?

Im saying you could use Natal to improve the graphics while allowing the 360 to handle the rest.

dude lol... processing power of Natal? wtf? it's like saying "zomg reroute the processing power of my webcam to pimp my cpu" ...

natal DRAINS power from the xbox. it is not a 128mb expansion pack like on N64.

Ski until you drop... then get right back up and keep going

sooo what you are saying is not to use the motion sensor and use that processing power instead to make as smoother better looking game? Well every game out nowdoes not use Natal(kindof cause its not out...) and therefore uses all the processing power to make a smooth, realistic looking game... also Natal does not add anything, its just an add on feature... sooo yeah they are most likely going to do this as having the motion sensing for any halo related game, IMO, is a bad idea. (though i have faith in bungie if they wanted to use it to come up with something decent)

Because Natal was designed specifically for Motion capture. Do you also think blenders should be able to re-route power for toasting bread?

First i thought you were going to talk about natal functioning like the tracker iv headtracking. But this would be so much hassle for bungie i think.

The idea of head tracking alone is absurd. Yes, it sounds inventive and new-age. But if you are turning your head to look different ways, how would you see the screen? It's not like you have goggles on that display what you are seeing when you turn your head, you still have to look at the screen.

Awesome isn’t just a word. Awesome is a way of life. Awesome is a way of war. Teamwork matters the most. Lone Wolves jeopardize the missions. Teamwork is key. Resistance is futile. The covenant fear us, not the other way around. We don’t fight for Earth. We don’t fight for Reach. We fight for the good of mankind because we are A.W.E.S.O.M.E.

The Bring Back Bloodgulch Group have many members looking for more its kind of an unofficial petition to Bungie to bring back Bloodgulch in Reach http://www.bungie.net/fanclub/bx3g/Group/GroupHome.aspx

that doesnt make any sense. the 360 will still process the motion sensing stuff.

Chief vs the scarab? I find that hard to believe to roundhouse boot the scarab's figurative emotion out of the gaming zone.

Only if we can also use the processing power of our spare controllers and headsets as well. Oh, and how about we hook up a bunch of old Xbox's and memory cards to this gizmo too? I'm sure it would look pretty sweet.
