E3 Top Ten

With hundreds of games and gadgets to choose from we've picked our top ten from the world’s biggest game show.

Project Natal

Xbox 360
Release: TBC

Without a doubt, Microsoft was the star of E3 with the unveiling of Project Natal – a new motion sensitive control system that can recognise the movement of your entire body in addition to specific vocal and facial recognition.

The sensor is the world's first to combine an RGB camera, depth sensor, multi-array microphone and custom processor running proprietary software all in one device. Unlike 2D cameras and controllers, Project Natal tracks your full body movement in 3D, while responding to commands, directions and even a shift of emotion in your voice.

Unlike other devices, the Project Natal sensor is not light-dependent. It can recognise you just by looking at your face, and it doesn't just react to key words but understands what you're saying. Call for a pass in a football game, and players will actually respond. Want to log onto Xbox Live? Simply step in front of the sensor. Kick a football, save a shot - from the demonstration video, all seems possible.
