Ok, so I am jumping the gun and not listing details. This is definitely a developing story, so I’ll be back with more if someone else doesn’t beat me to it. Microsoft has unveiled the 306′s motion control unit, and there is no Wii-mote required. The few shots that I have seen are pretty sweet. This could be A LOT of fun.

**UPDATE**
OK, so the new motion control setup is called Project Natal, which I think is kind of a strange name, but whatever. Rather than using a controller like the Wii setup, this unit can detect your motions. You can kick, jump, move, etc, and it get translated into the game. At first look, this is utterly amazing. However, although seeing is believing, I want to really SEE it. How much of the demo is Hollywood smoke and mirrors. Another super-cool feature is that when the camera sees your face, it can automatically sign you into Live. I am not ready to declare the Wii dead, but this defilitely takes a lot of wind out of their sails. Now let’s see what Sony’s counter is…..other than the PSP Go.
