Next year Sony and Microsoft will both be introducing their new motion technologies, which were unveiled back at E3. Publishers and developers have been taking a hard look at both Project Natal and Sony's motion controller, trying to decide how to support them. We've yet to hear any concrete game announcements for the technologies yet. However, speaking to IndustryGamers recently, Sega West President Mike Hayes said that it's likely we'll be hearing from Sega on their projects in early 2010.
"We'd like to think that in early 2010 we'll be making announcements about both of those platforms," he noted.
Hayes said that projects right now are basically in an R&D phase. "We have our ideas and we know what we want to do, but the technology is pretty new, particularly with Natal, so we've got to get to grips with the technology and see if it can do what we want it do," he said, adding about the experimentation, "I kind of think of it as the land of bunsen burners and test tubes."
Take-Two also just talked about dev kits for Natal and Sony's technology being "embedded" in nearly all their studios. We're very curious to see what all these game companies cook up for the new motion platforms.
