its hefty price tag? Is Kinect 2.0 really going to be worth the extra cash even though Xbox One has weaker hardware than PS4?

People aren't doing this? I think that's one of the biggest complaints.

relative to the ps4 without kinect, the xbone should be around 350. include the 100$ kinect and make it 449. which isnt that bad of a price. (imo of course)

M$ think its worth it, you paying extra for the useless-for-gaming Kinect gimmick and Live subscription while at the same time they earn profit from interactive ads via Kinect Nuad system. they dont need to market Kinect separately because its mandatory purchased and that guarantees a higher probability that Kinect-Nuads scheme will work win - win on all side for M$. who cares if Xboned is weak. it is the greatest next gen money milking scheme for MS.

Because Microsoft cleverly hid them behind a string of PR disasters, effectively diverting attention away from these issues.

No, plenty of people certainly are.  It's one of the main criticisms of the X1 I see here and on other gaming sites.

SW have been ripping apart the X1 for a long time. For this and multiple other reasons. Me? I don't care very much. It's not my plan getting one anyways.

I agree. It's the least appealing console this holiday.

I'm pretty certain at least a dozen people call out the Xbox One for its price in every single Xbox One thread that ever gets made :?

What's the point? Complaining won't change anything. MS never back down from their original plans...oh wait.:lol:

Bigboi500

I defenitely see Kinect being worth the extra price.

Sony intended the PS4 to include the PS Eye and only took it out to undercut Microsoft on price, the PS4 has a hefty number of features that will go unutilized by players because of the lack of the Eye.

Slightly less powerful, Yes but Xbox One has other things that are better than what the PS4 offers.

Traumatized lems still under the enemies spell.  You can save a few souls from time to time, but they have to take that first step.

And the sad truth is that more often than not these lems go into shock the first time they see an array of industry dominating, bleeding edge games.  Their poor little hearts just cant take the rush.

Well.. in the end.. i'm pretty sure M$ will do more with the kinect than nintendo with the forced tablet. So.... why not? *shurgs* i am going for the cheaper console down the line though.
