- BioWare president impressed by motion sensing tech, considering using it in future games.
Written by David Scammell, 18 November 2009
BioWare CEO Dr. Ray Muzyka has stated that the motion sensing tech found in Microsoft's upcoming Natal "certainly could" work with future BioWare games, saying that the best games will likely "approach Natal as a core part of the game as opposed to an add-on or an afterthought."
Talking to VideoGamer.com about the prospect of using Natal in the future, Muzyka said, "We'd want to approach it from a fresh perspective and design a game around the mechanic of the controller. It's so different. In the same way the best Wii games embrace the control mechanic as part of the core design.
"It remains to be seen what kind of Natal games will come out. It will be very cool. The best ones will probably approach it as a core part of the game as opposed to an add-on or an afterthought."

When asked whether BioWare would consider developing an FPS, Muzyka replied:
"We would. We haven't announced anything on that front, but yeah, I can see that being a very interesting combination.
"I see the definition of RPG as being pretty broad. We look at Mass Effect, I say, and I believe, that it's as much a shooter as it is an RPG. When you play it, it really feels that way. So I'd say we're approaching other genres by expanding what the definition of RPG is, and blending in features of other genres to enrich our game experiences and drawing in new fans."
BioWare's latest game, Dragon Age: Origins, launched two weeks ago on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC. Mass Effect 2 releases in January. http://www.gamerzines.com/xbox-360/news/bioware-natal-very-cool.html | |

| If a company like Bioware is excited about working with Natal then maybe it will be more than just a casual's toy. | |
