At E3 this week in Los Angeles Microsoft announced Project Natal, their new human interaction system being developed for the Xbox 360 where the player is the game controller. The BBC has more on the launch of Project Natal.

Introducing Project Natal, a revolutionary new way to play: no controller required. See a ball? Kick it, hit it, trap it or catch it. If you know how to move your hands, shake your hips or speak you and your friends can jump into the fun — the only experience needed is life experience.
