The Game Gets Into the Game With Natal

Added by Ryan Davis on June 25, 2009

If it's going to have a chance at achieving any kind of mainstream acceptance of Natal , Microsoft 's going to have to be vigilant of getting it in front of regular people. People like, say, Compton-based rapper and former Dr. Dre protégé The Game. WorldStar HipHop has some footage of The Game trying out that full-body 3D Breakout game and a Natal-controlled version of Burnout Paradise at E3 . Dude might be a serious Madden player, but he's a little hesitant to really commit to the whole full-body, looking-like-a-jackass thing that seems to be a critical component to the Natal experience. Then again, I doubt 50 Cent would be any more willing to act the fool, which is why someone really needs to get Weird Al and Natal in front of a camera together.

I despise "The Game" more than Jeff despises the Wii.

I like that he is so full of himself that he doesn't even move when playing ricochet.

I agree with Ryan, someone needs to get Wierd Al and Natal together.

I really want to play that 3D Breakout thing they've got going on in these demos.

If Project Natal has The Game's approval, then it has mine as well.
