[QUOTE="Mr720fan"]

[QUOTE="heeweesRus"]PS4 is also destroying the X1 on Amazon UK. PS4 is at #4 for the year while the X1 is #70, lol.

JamDev

UK i think they lost, price way too high, but NA is going to be its mainstay, if they keep the number one market, they will be ok...

Sorry but MS are losing in the US too, the XB1 might not be dead in the water like it is in every other market, but it's still a very distant second.

doubt it, way too early to say that. lol but i believe they will hold a strong US position with the IPTV stuff down the road. the rest of the globe, i dont know, although i think it might see better sales in Japan, they seem to like the Kinect, maybe because it now actually works well.

ure not smart huh ? xbox one has 4 ps4 around him

"him"? Never took the Xbox to be very masculine.

Xbox offers one SKU and its sitting at #1 and the PS4's SKUs are sitting at 3, 4, 5, 9 and 17 -- we don't know the number of units being sold (save for the numbers GS have given-that both were selling around the same) now whether or not that means that one Xbox SKU is selling as much (or more) than all five of the PS4 SKUs, or just one or two or three etc. we do not know.

Its all subjective banter at this point.

Poor lems :( M$ is confusing them so they can xbone them later and they don't even notice. It appears that even with cows trying to save them lems are beyond help at this point they're a lost cause.

now I hope they follow up by announcing that they'll cut the price, if it's not required then there shouldn't be a reason it should be sold with every console, hopefully that's what happens

What's the point of this if every SKU still comes with its own Kinect?

Sure, it adds some convinience, but ultimately, nothing's changed... this would be worthwhile only if we had an option for a cheaper SKU with no Kinect.

Damn, Microsoft flip flops like crazy They are looking vey weak right now Sony has BEEN with gamers from the START....and has never flip flopped like this because they HAVE ALWAYS BEEN with gamers Remember that A corporate head at Microsoft would sell out their own grandma. Im sticking with the playstation 4 NO MATTER WHAT. You should too. I have already been sold on it since Feb 20th.... Plus with Naughty Dog developing for it. Its a no brainer. You wont be able to play those many awesome playstation exclusives any where else Microsoft can go f!ck themselfes. They are only doing this for the money. You cant trust Microsoft either. As soon as the backlash comes down they could be trying to enforce their policies again I WILL NEVER trust Microsoft...and I WILL NEVER BUY their products again Go home Xbox, you are drunk

Guys, seriously.  This is a rumor.  And even if true, it simply would allow you to disconnect the Kinect while playing non Kinect games.  You'd still have to buy one, and with MS pushing Kinect functions for all titles, you'd likely have to have it plugged in for most games anyhow.

http://www.examiner.com/article/rumor-microsoft-removing-kinect-requirement-without-xbox-one-price-drop No, the all new Kinect is now an essential and integrated part of the platform. By having it as a consistent part of every Xbox One, game and entertainment creators can build experiences that assume the availability of voice, gesture and natural sensing, leading to unrivaled ease of use, premium experiences and interactivity for consumers. We are very confident with the value we provide at $499 and the unparalleled, all in one games and entertainment experience that Xbox One offers. it was a rumor and microsoft officialy said it was a typo, ,kinect is hardwired into the xbox one. They may change the drm policies but all the money they put into that hardware, they aren't going to get rid of it and provide a different sku without it

Overpriced hardware that's also going to be out of date less than a year after the console launches. Drop the stupid thing and make it cheaper.
