Subject: How Natal could be used

add a horn that says "!%*@ BILL O' REILLY" in Austin Powers' voice, and
I like how if anyone ever says a nice thing about Bungie people think all they want is Recon, and if someone says something bad about Bungie people join with them. And then after they get done bagging on Bungie, they go play the game that Bungie made

I would hate to see Halo Wii. However, I think Natal could work for one thing. I would love to be able to use voice commands for the menu. It wouldn't interfere with gameplay that way. I would love to be able to start the xbox and say "Matchmaking. Double EXP. Invite friends (insert name) and (insert name). Start search."

That would be a splendid way to use Natal.

Hello.

Why would Bungie work natal into the menus and screw over everyone without natal by making a gimmicky menu that people will probably complain about endlessly?

Eh, I still don't like the idea of Natal. It's cool, but seeing as I don't live alone, I'd get lots of weird looks as I talk to the TV set. Maybe a little for the main menus, but nothing in-game AT ALL.

I forgot Natal would have to be purchased first. Oops.

Great minds discuss ideas

Average minds discuss events

Small minds discuss people

I think Natal can be used in lots of cool ways, but they must be an option so everyone will enjoy the game.

Flip your controller, and you perform a beatdown.
You do the animations for a vehicle hi-jack
Program in a celebration dance for when you win a MM game.

Just a few suggestions. The amount of things we could do with Natal is massive

No. No natal in gameplay. EVER. I would not like to throw balance out the window. I just know that we would see the dawn of something worse than BXB. Something much, much worse.

Two things. First, apparently all Xboxes will have it.

Second. NATAL will have games made for it, NATAL won't be made for all games to abide to.

Is natal going to included natively in the next Xbox? Man, I was under the impression it was to be tacked on to the current generation.

I think it would be ok if it was used for voice commands in game. Such as telling marines or spartans to do something, and instead of holding B to activate something you can say it or make a button pressing, lever pulling motion.
