Supposed gameplay videos of Kung-Fu Live, an upcoming PS3 game which makes use of the exceedingly forlorn PlayStation Eye camera system, have prompted some excitable souls to proclaim the end of Natal as being nigh.
The video in question can be inspected below:
The game is set to be unveiled at E3 2010.
More sober observation probably relegates this to the realm of surreal gimmick, and destined to sink without trace, though whether Natal ultimately fares any better is still a matter of some speculation.

I think medical bills from street fights are cheaper.
MORTAL KOMBAT!
The lamest thing I noticed is that you have to be looking at the screen which makes it look more than a little retarded when you watch it cause you're not really looking at your enemies.
The animation doesn't make you look cool either and this whole jumping and zooming forward (err... sliding on the ground) just doesn't help.
Still it's a nice concept and can look like fun if they actually placed some effort in the gameplay and graphics department. Maybe they'll come up with a DDR version for this.
The lightning part in the ad made me lol.
haha i want this and i want to do this naked!
ooo shii.... this reminds me so much of Comics Zone by SEGA...
It looks like something from Tim and Eric: Awesome show great job!
bad animation and graphic
this is sh17
The way the sprite jumps looks so extremely lame.
instead of making these lame games, they should start using established fps (Halo, COD, etc.) and smash-'em-up (dynasty warriors) games. I played COD on the Wii and it's a lot more fun than xbox, although harder.
And this is why this entire motion shit should just vanish from this world. Nobody fucking needs it.
NATAL will FAIL
I can't wait to see the vids of the people kicking their family on accident. Like the WII mote stories but funnier
Looks more like Sideway Fu then Kung Fu.
curiously they only show the gamem working not the how fluid the motion capture is.
but my money is on Natal thanks to MS's less restricting nanny system we might actually get some ergo with natal implement.
Sex education will change forever. and new generation of otaku's will feel confident about hip pressing. lol
Actually natal can well double as home security system, when coupled with PC.
It's a stepping stone people. Remember what Sony said about the new PSP, "It was a study case" or something like that. Wait until the cat suit comes out.
They need shit like this for PC.
Can you imagine playing .hack// online with this?
I lol'd so hard watching those jumps! XD
Well, the game basics aren't too bad, but needs more workout.
You are facing the television, but you have to fight sideways. Thats not cool!
Would be MUCH BETTER if the sprite of yours is facing your opponent rather than the sprite looking back at you.
Advertisments alway lie.
damn i think i like the game, imagine me playing and kicking ass like those in tekken!
man those kicks would wear me out, i'd love a boxing game though
They could do with learning the definiton of stop. Seriously the enemy just got slightly slower.
I don't want either.
hope sony doesn't get sued for causing Tv got kicked for playing their game
The character movements look awful, and the static camera side view sucks for such a "revolutionary" concept.
You don't fight someone while looking to the side away from your foe. Then again, I suppose you don't throw lightning or stop time either irl so... a ver "meh" game so far.
somebody's going to pull something.
forlorn
I'd definitely play this.
They should build 2 big things you place next to you when playing this game, so if your guy gets hit in-game, some big fucking boxing glove flies out of the machine and twats you round the face.
It would make us all try harder.
I'll consider it when they work out the problem of it looking like shit. Right now it looks like a tech demo, though that's probably what it is. It does have potential though.
HMM The "Move set" is looking pretty good.
For the price of $100 you get the PSEYE and a Move controller
As for Natal $80-$150 dollar for a better PSEYE with no controller.
Natal games will probably port over to the PSEYE with a slight downgrade or be replace with the controllers.
Unless Natal can do something amazing at E3 I don't feel like I am going to buy it.
I really feel for that guy who got signed up into doing those cheesy Mortal Kombat moves.
He looks like he knows some martial arts moves and he already look so lame. I can't imagine a normal guy trying to do the same thing. Some guy above got it right: it's probably better to be caught masturbating than to playing this "game".
I doubt fat gamers be able to pull off badass kicks.
That game looks like a Flash game of Newgrounds.com xD
it not nearly as cool as Natal though
i mean this is only for one game?
Natal is "almost" a platform itself
I'm looking forward to the inevitable Ideal vs Actuality follow-up, but hell, I'd love for this one to end up the exception to the rule.
All this motion tracking business smells of stupidity.
They probably already got tired of working on the graphic to make it as realistic as possible so they've decided to work on the games' "interactivity" level instead.. Who knows, the next gen will come out with objects physically popping out from your TV screen for real..

You mean, something like this? ...

Wow...are they trying to tackle(the gimmicks of) the Wii and the 360 at the same time?
I'm eagerly awaiting the results of this.
Natal killer? More like Mom/Sis/Dad/Dog/Cat/Buddy/Anybody who happened to walk passing you in the living room Killer...
Time to start practicing my backflip.
Lame. I foresee better future for Natal or let the Wii die the way it came.
Neo: I know Kung-fu
Good way to sell more TVs, more light fixtures, more ceiling fans and kill your family members and not get charged for doing it by law as it was an accident they walked into the kick. Also, lots of folks will be face and chest down on the ground when they slip or the floor mat moves unexpectedly.
Most people will probably be face-down on the floor after playing for 5 minutes. Gamers aren't the most fit people on the planet.
thats why they created this perhaps ?
/sarcasm
First they teach you how to fly and crash jets into the office buildings in Microsoft Flight Simulator, then they tutor you until you master Kung-Fu in Kung-Fu Live. Since you already know how to use a firearm since 1987 and Operation Wolf, now they only have to brainwash you to make you an uber-mega commando guy.
Oh, wait... Psychonauts. The world as we know it is officially screwed!
If it only that simple...
Hopefully the EyeToy 2.0 actually works now.
I'm not so sure that the eye toy can get all those movement. I mean like people can punch/kick very fast
