Xbox 360 Becomes More Like Wii

The video game geeks know it already as Project Natal, but it's been re-named Kinect and it's the hottest upcoming Video game technology. You can preorder a kinect set now for about $150 for the special motion tracking camera (EBGames is taking orders), plus you will need some new Kinect games.
