If it actually has body tracking then dodging bullets could be fun. Good for machinima with sniper rifles (they already have the matrix bullet trails).

I could see Natal being sweetass for giving squad commands in a shooter.

That would be terrible, why use hand signals. It would require you to remove your hands from the controller. It would be the complete opposite form the frantic type of gameplay you find in halo.

It's not really suited for the franchise.

That image looks remarkably similar to imagery from Sphere. *sigh*

Now I have to watch that.

To walk will you have to walk in place?

@Martin: Bonus points if a door in some Forerunner structure appears out of nowhere and beckons them inside as they approach. Freak-out-fun if there's a crazed monitor named "Jerry" inside who attacks people with giant 'engineers.'

Assuming the conjecture holds up, a nice feature might be to be able to prone by manically diving to the floor, either to take cover or for sniping.
I don't really want any controls placed on the Natal at all, though, since there's little chance I can afford to spend any more on hardware for the console. I have a feeling that if they were so foolish as to link certain controls to it only, there'd be an "update" or "bug-fix" or some other euphemism to remedy the situation back to a traditional controller pretty quickly. After all, it's Microsoft, and they want every penny possible.
