I’m a huge fan of Marvel Comics and recently the teaser trailer for Thor has been released. I’m really excited for this movie as its part of a multi-movie leading up to the big one, The Avengers. If you haven’t seen it, be sure to take a look.

Kinect – Project Natal

Kinect (originally known by the code name Project Natal), is a “controller-free gaming and entertainment experience” by Microsoft for the Xbox 360 video game platform. Based around a webcam-style add-on peripheral for the Xbox 360 console, it enables users to control and interact with the Xbox 360 without the need to touch a game controller through a natural user interface using gestures, spoken commands, or presented objects and images.

I’m not an X-box person so I didn’t pay attention to it when it was originally announced but a friend of mine showed me this video. Watching this video, my mind was going crazy on some of the game ideas you could do with the technology.
