Microsoft: Natal is our most exciting product

According to Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer, Natal is the most exciting product of the year.

Ballmer told a group of tech executives at Columbia of Microsoft's excitement and being able to bring Natal to market.

Ballmer said: "Perhaps for me the most exciting product well bring to market this year, and it really fits in this context, actually comes out of our video gaming group."

The Microsoft CEO added: "It's a technology that we call Natal. If you want to control the TV, you don't go get some remote control or big fat gaming thing. If you want to look through TV channels, you just gesture, and the computer recognises your voice, it recognises your gestures. You want to play a game and you need to jump, you jump. It recognises you, it knows your voice, who you are, your gestures, what youre doing."

Natal is due out this autumn.

Thanks MCV.
