I'll tweet Major Nelson, and get back to you. Yes, it's that easy.

The X1 is junk with or without kinect and considering the fact that the PS4 is more powerful and is $399, the X1 without Kinect should cost $350.

No, since the entire OS is centered around kinect.

Hardly. Can you use it with a controller? Yes. Can you unplug Kinect and use the box? Yes. Kinect therefore not necessary. I don't care how much they go on about how nice it is to use voice, I will never say 'xbox change channel' in the middle of my living room.

You still don't know if the interface will be a pain in the ass without Kinect. Could be as bad as using Windows 8 without a touch screen.

PS2 crushed with Fantavision even though the Dreamcast had far superior games so I don't really see your point.

Probably, I would especially expect that to happen if the PS4 dominates the Xbox One in sales.

I don't think so, it would make kinect (a lot more) useless. 

If they want developers to use the technology it's got to be included with every box.

With all of their changes they have made I wouldn't mind picking up a X1 if they got rid of kinect, got both a PS3 and a 360 but as it stands today only getting a PS4 unless microsoft make changes then I will consider picking up a X1 6 months after.

Nope, but expect price parity with PS4 next year. MS are in a better position to reduce manufacturing costs of the XB1 than PS4 which is now hobbled with the more expensive GDDR5 memory

Mangy, all the interest seems to be with Xbox One, all day every day and not much interest in PS4 :shock: The One is gonna sell like hot cakes on a cold day. :cool:
