The future of home entertainment – like that seen in sci-fi movies – will be in stores this Christmas. That future is Project Natal, says Chris Lewis, VP, Interactive Entertainment Business, EMEA, Microsoft.

“Ten years ago we launched the original Xbox, and ten years on we are launching Project Natal, which will free people from the controller for gaming and entertainment,” Lewis told MCV. “It will work with every Xbox 360 and when you get to use it across different games and entertainment experiences it really is revolutionary.”

Lewis concluded: “We’ve all seen similar things in films set in the future, but that future is here and will be on the shelves for Christmas.”

Microsoft is lifting the lid on Natal during a special showcase event on Sunday evening. Look out for coverage shortly after.
