i still will be purchasing a "natal"...i mean if you buy it, they must be bundling it with something, its not like Microsoft would be such big arses to make us buy the accessory and a game separately? kinda how the xbox live vision camera was bundled =] i still have high hopes for natal, and i expect another big franchise to come aboard, i mean maybe this Bowling game is just a teaser. im just saying, there might be more behind it then we think, weve still got milo, the interactive boy who does his homework, and plays in a lake for hours (gee, there must be some very difficult achievements for that game...[sarcasm])

the tech still interests me...

hopefully the games are good and not just built to make us wave our hands like idiots.

The Brunswick pro bowling franchise is here in South jersey Slam. I know your in Australia, but just saying.

if there is any TRUE reason to get natal, it would have to be REAL interactivity ( such as those videos that PETER MOLYNEUX did with that "MILO DEMO". Now if you could have a varity of games doing those types of things, and NOT just waving your limbs around like a crazy person from a nut house you could really get "into-the-game".

if you have no idea of what i am talking about , check it out on youtube "peter molyneux natal" or "peter molyneux milo"

I did some research and there are FIVE retail bowling games available for the Wii, which indicates SOMEONE out there is buying enough of these to make it a profitable genre.

Well, if you go by the word "franchise," Brunswick is huge in the world of bowling, just not in the world of 360 games...
