November 2010 release date and other details

Project Natal launch details leaked Image 1

Some super secret sources have leaked juicy Project Natal details, some of which we've already heard.

Looks like this innovative motion device will be seeing a November 2010 release, which shouldn't come as a surprise when Lionhead Studios already announced plans to make Fable III compatible; the game is slated to come out around the same time, so the timing there is perfect.  The leak also mentioned 14 Natal-ready games being prepared for launch, though it's not clear whether Fable III is included in that number.

As previously reported, other "elite" publishers have already promised to lend Natal their full support, including names like Square Enix, Konami, EA, Capcom, Namco, SEGA, Activision, and more.

According to the source, Microsoft will release five million Natal units, each priced under $82.00 USD or £50, which is more or less what rumors have suggested.  Some sources have predicted the peripheral could be as low as £30, or $50 in American-speak.  Lower than what we normally expect for Microsoft peripherals, at least.

    or MS subsidizing cost to get a faster adoption rate making profits on volume sales instead. People have already voiced through the Wii that they're not up for paying $100 for every single accessory especially when it might prove worthless (see vitality sensor)
