Project Natal getting October release? Maybe… [UPDATED]
Though Microsoft’s full body controller system for the Xbox 360 has long been slated to come out sometime around the 2010 holidays, it’s now looking like October will be the month, though we can expect more details during E3 in June. This tidbit was dropped by Microsoft’s marketing manager for Saudi Arabia, Syed Bilal Tariq…
“is going to be somewhere in October and we will be in a position to confirm the date at E3, which is in June, but definitely it is going to be October 2010.”

UPDATE: According to Microsoft Canada…
As we confirmed earlier this year, Project Natal will launch this Holiday. We have no further details to share at this time.
At the same time, G4 is also reporting that according to Microsoft, Syed Bilal Tariq is actually NOT an MS employee, but a “vendor employed through a third-party company on behalf of the Microsoft subsidiary in Saudi Arabia”
So there. It’s still launching this ‘Holiday’, so whether you’ll be playing by Hallowe’en or not is still up in the air, it could still be under your non-denominational winter holiday gift bearing plant or such. Personally, I’m hoping for Hallowe’en, it being MY favourite holiday and all. And it’s Hallowe’en, not Halloween, no matter what you’re modern spellchecker software says.
