Is anything on Twitter really ever verified?

I mean, you just can't be sure otherwise.. right?

Like @ Jesus, I know he's pretty convincing.. but I some how have a hard time believing Jesus is just sitting chilling out with a copy of TweetDeck open..]]>Feb 23rd 2010 8:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/

I think the twitter link on the bottom right hand menu might be a bit of a giveaway to confirm it!]]>Feb 23rd 2010 8:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/

Not everyone who uses twitter gets verified, it's mostly celebrities (music, tv, etc) and high profile billionaires/millionaires.

If I were to use your logic, I could say the same thing about Joshua Topolsky, his twitter account isn't verified either...]]>Feb 23rd 2010 9:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/Feb 23rd 2010 10:21AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/Feb 23rd 2010 11:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://bit.ly/project-natal-in-action-and-concept]]>Feb 23rd 2010 1:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/Feb 23rd 2010 2:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/Feb 23rd 2010 8:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/
NO, IT IS NOT.

A good (unique) and valid source is Microsoft, otherwise is just a unfounded gossip.

Because that video is just all puffery, correct? Twitter acct + vid. I mean, what more could you ask f... OMG I just got Natal in the mail!!!!!! It's October already?

Well, there you go... there is more that you could use to prove that is real, you'll just have to wait until October. ]]>Feb 23rd 2010 10:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/

For this sort of thing, this ultra mainstream type of thing, the likes of Ross probably will be how they are announced and hyped, in the UK the specialist press is taken for granted but column inches in the likes of loaded fought over, a friend who worked for the offical UK Ninty mag got more backhanders and free crap doing a one page thing for a lads mag than he ever got in the specialist magazines.]]>Feb 23rd 2010 8:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/Feb 23rd 2010 8:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/Feb 23rd 2010 9:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/Feb 23rd 2010 9:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/

EPIC COMMENT FAIL.]]>Feb 23rd 2010 1:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/Feb 23rd 2010 10:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/
I was watching the video to see how well Natal could accurately show his body movements and it all looks fairly good until the 30 second mark. To me it looks like the real life guy just moved back and forth really quick and the natal blue character's left leg came up or something like a bicycle kick but then in the next frame it seems to be correct. I'm not exactly sure what happened because the video is hard to see but if this type of positioning error is occurring in a game where all of your limbs are easy to differentiate since they're spread out and all on relatively the same depth plane then I can't imagine what would happen with fighting games where most of your movements would be towards the screen.

Also, does anyone know the technology the camera uses to determine depth? Is it lasers or radar? From what i understand that camera sends each pixel data with the normal color data but also has depth determined for each pixel somehow.]]>Feb 23rd 2010 10:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/Feb 23rd 2010 11:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/Feb 23rd 2010 11:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/Feb 23rd 2010 7:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/Feb 23rd 2010 12:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/
Unless natal has the ability to surpass a handheld controller (which it doesnt) it will just be another forgotten gimmick like the eye toy

I see natal being aimed mainly at kids tbh]]>Feb 23rd 2010 5:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/23/project-natal-coming-in-october-says-jonathan-ross-video/
