In what amounts to the worst-kept secret of E3, Microsoft has just unveiled the Kinect motion controller. Originally called Project Natal, this is the final trade version of the Kinect controller and will be available in November. Pricing is currently unavailable but we will have more information shortly.

Update: Okay, so Kinect is now officially official for reals this time although we already knew all about it.

Key features
