No it couldn't because of the background removal. This sort of background removal has been limited to green-screening up until now. To extract live video elements and put them in a game is quite impressive, if a little shonky at the moment.

Is it live? I thought it was just cutting you out once from a picture and then auto-generating the animation from that. If not, then you're probably right and it is more impressive. The game though ... it looks like a very bad version of Rag Doll Kung Fu (which I personally liked, but not very many people did).

Wow Natal will require an AC adapter I didn't expect that, I suppose the USB port doesn’t have enough power for the internal processor.

Motorized tilt mechanism? What’s this, I guest natal will make little adjustments to keep track of the person on camera, or maybe is just to keep Natal balanced.

Heh heh, found a video on the official site:

Here're the dates for seeing it in-person: ^_^

There should be some limitations to this technology.
They should be able to track better (a la Puppetry demo) and use weapons with a Move controller.
EDIT:
Yap ! I have always thought Sony and MS should put their cameras and motion controllers on a wireless mobile platform so we can play with it like a robot (Aibo !). Would be useful for some applications. ^_^
That's certainly surprising. Of course, it is a debug unit. We don't know what the final hardware requirements are.
However if that is close to the final design, it's a lot deeper than I anticipated. I'm very surprised it's motorized.
I'm also a bit concerned it's more complex than anticipated.. That usually means more expensive.

That xbox design has an awfully large ring of light.
More likely trouble powering the motor and dual cameras. It's certainly not a small peripheral!

I think the Camera could be tilling to follow the player and increase also the range. Wider range eliminates some problems

Debug unit, perhaps? Surely they wouldn't let slip the 360 Slim design like this, would they?

No.
I haven't seen any teeny-tiny debug units popping up (and if I did, I wouldn't be saying so
).I imagine it's just funny custom art. But you never know...
They may have gone mad and put USB ports on the bottom too In any case, someone has massively broken their NDA.
Very surprising about the tilt motor & AC adapter. There goes the hopes of a low cost package. The tilt motor makes sense, makes it easy to align no matter if it's on top or below the TV. Just wished there was some way to hang it off the top of my TV since I have mine mounted to a swivel arm.
Also nice to hear about the voice command training & the hundreds of commands like "Turn on the Xbox 360" or "Go to Facebook".

Wow, the Natal peripheral looks much more complex (and larger) than I was expecting, so does it actually swivel to track players who may be going outside it's current FoV?
Most likely, but before today nobody thought there would be a tilt motor either.
BTW, remember it only says "tilt", I don't think the motor will allow it to turn horizontally.

I hope it can swivel as well as tilt, I mean if they're already doing tilt how much more would it cost to let it swivel as well.
I would rather not have it powered but at least the AC power cord joins the USB cable and only one cord leads to the actual peripheral, which is much neater than having two cables - you would probably connect the USB cable to the port on the rear of the console anyway so it'll be close to the powerpoint in most set ups.
