Peter Molyneux, the guy who designs those Fable games and runs Microsoftâs European studios, sees Project Natal as more than just another motion peripheral.
For him, itâs the peripheral is akin to some like the computer mouse.
âIf youâre thinking that Natal is going to give you another version of an FPS, youâre just not thinking broadly enough,â Molyneux told Gamereactor. âAfter all, it was the invention of the mouse that gave us computing as it is today â not the invention of the microprocessor.â
That, the game designer points out, is how we have come to control our computers.
âThe mouse was the real revolution of the PC â not the Intel processor. And whoâs to say Natal couldnât end up creating something you and I canât even imagine now. It forces us to approach technology in a completely different way. Before the mouse, we only had the keyboard.â
But we already have a controllerâŠto control our video games⊠Okay, fine, I see what he is saying!
