Natal was amazing, right? Not everyone thinks so. It wasn't enough for Tony Hawk: Ride, the Birdman said himself at E3 yesterday.

"We actually tried to get [Tony Hawk: Ride] running with a camera, but it wasn't accurate enough," Hawk told MTV.

"Plus you can't really do ollies, grabs and flips when you're just standing on nothing."

A kid was shown playing a skateboard game using Natal in the reveal videos.

Thanks, EG.
