Project Natal only for new Xbox 360 games

Posted on Monday, September 28 2009 @ 17:46 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck
Destructoid heard at the Tokyo Games Show that it's unlikely that old games may get support for Project Natal:
When I asked Microsoft Games' Kudo Tsunoda if it would be possible to "patch" existing games to work with Natal, his answer was clear -- it's not likely. While Microsoft was able engineer other publisher's titles to work with the hardware, a significant amount of code had to be altered. With that in mind, a simple update wouldn't be enough -- a publisher would likely have to re-release the game in its entirety.
