Microsoft's big E3 unveiling was a motion control system for its Xbox 360 game console, meant to replace traditional thumbstick controllers. The system is called Project Natal for now, and it not only detects the movements of your body, but also your facial expressions. It recognizes your face when you step in front of the TV, and responds to voice commands. Check out our special page dedicated to Project Natal for more details!

I read that the price would be around $99, and that it would be compatible with the current 360... hardware...
but maybe not backward compatible with older games
