Project Natal is the new motion sensing interaction camera. What Natal does is sees what you do and does things according to your body movement. For instance; In the NXE dashboard, there are panels, if you wipe your hand to the side, like you are wiping something (Duh) the panels will move according to where you moved your hands. I move my hand left, the panel moves left. There will also be a set of games the will use Natal's functionality, such as Milo. That's basically all the information that we have right now. Here is a video for a visual image.

Winner of the Uncharted 2 Multiplayer Beta Key Giveaway!
Thanks for all the submissions for the contest, most of them made me laugh, and some of them were just links that said watch (BTW, the link never did anything, I watched them for about 10 min.

E3 Never Happened...
Since we were caught up in other things, and not paying attention, we were a little late to reporting on E3, and it's too late to do it now because there is just soo much stuff thats coming out. So, because of that we are just going to pretend that E3 never actually happened, we will just report on some really cool things that just so happened to come out of a period of a couple days. So if you're reading this, thanks for sticking with us, we'll have the big news for you sooner or later.

Iphone Reviews: Amateur Surgeon, 5 Fingers
Here is a new segment I'm starting giving a mini reviews of iphone/touch apps. I'm trying to think of a good name for the segment so if you have any ideas let me hear them in the comments (not ireview).
First up Amateur Surgeon: This is made by Adult Swim games and is similar to the board game Operation. You most operate on patients by cutting,burning,and remove pieces of metal or whatever is in them. Like all Adult Swim shows and games its very clever and funny and their are many patients to choose from. Although once you play it through their is no reason to play anymore, It lasts a long time. Last time I checked the game as $4.99 and I find it a little bit hard to recommend for that price. But if you enjoy that style of gameplay then you cannot go wrong with Amateur Surgeon.

Second is 5 Fingers game bundle: This is a collection of 5 games that were very popular in the early days of the app store. They include Blackbeards Assault,Burnball,Sneezies, Up There, and Chopper. Some of these games has their own individual lite versions so you can also check those out.
Blackbeards Assault is a Luxor/Zuma clone with a pirate theme.
Burnball is similar to Dr Awesome or Jezzball. Where you must shade a certain percentage of the level by using the accelerometer.
Sneezies is a chain reaction style game where you make a fuzzball sneeze and try and hit another with the effect,creating a chain reaction similar to Boomshine.
Up There give you control of a balloon trying to well go up. You tilt your iphone to avoid walls before gettign stuck underneath the screen.
Chopper has you piloting a helicopter trying to rescule people and avoiding getting killed by enemies.
That's it for now. If you have any app suggestions or comments to make please email me at jordanthehobo@gmail.com
