Throwback to Microsoft's pre-Kinect project dubbed Xbox 'Natal' way back in the day.
Being younger, I—along with many—really thought that was the close future of gaming. In hindsight, of course it was all fabricated.
I'm not surprised by Google's Gemini demo video either. The way that which the whole demo was narrated and played out made it seem too linear, too perfect.

Ahhh Peter Molyneux... I still have no idea how he has a job in the industry after all the things he's pulled.

He has a finished Black & White 3 he uses as leverage, threatening to sell it to a publisher unless he keeps getting employment

I can't believe I fell for that Milo demo, they were just acting.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Xbox 'Natal'

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

The page doesn't load, bad bot.

edit: oh it loaded after ~30 secs, but threw an error 1002 and told me to look at logs.
