By Jason Myers

This age group of Videogames steps into unchartered bliss we never expected would be created so rapidly. Reading a rundown of E3 news on different gaming websites the golden chalice for modernization has to go to Microsoft for Xbox 360's project Natal. Sony PlayStation 3 created something for teenagers - the Eyepet. Nintendo claimed to be the masters' of action directors some 5 years ahead in terms of their knowledge in formulating non conventional controllers.

Initially let me say a bit regarding Xbox 360's Natal. Microsoft exposed a hands free controller project named Natal. Natal works on genuine 1:1 motion control interaction with graphical and speech recognition. The hardware recognises the form of a player, their movements and even their hand commands.

Shifting over to Playstation PS3's press conference stadium all the eyes were on one thing. A new thrilling toy for Sony PS3 called "EyeToy". PlayStation Eye is the second generation of PS3 games using action detector. The EyeToy, first used in a type of playing card battle game give a notion of how games can interface with cameras and motion. An impressive magic card creates a 3D hologram when placed on the floor in front of the EyeToy opening up other games to play using your Eyepet. Sony hasn't given up on handheld gaming just yet either.

PlayStation also unveiled twin handed motion detector. It's good that they are picking up players off the sofa, providing the games are worth giving up the sofa for. Sony PS3's Eye-Toy motion controller concept was not a dissimilar concept to Natal. PS3's future 1:1 gameplay mapping was established by somebody holding virtual world things in their own hand, yes the graphics seemed awesome.

Nintendo's motion controller - Wii motion plus adapter for the Wii remote was announced last year and this month it moved on sale. Nintendo additionally discussed about the new Nintendo DS, DSi and Wii games: Sports Resort with Motion Plus, Super Mario Galaxy 2, New Super Mario for Wii and Wii Fit Plus the second in the Wii Fit series includes new game software sold separately for individuals who already bought a Wii Balance Board.
