I don't disagree im just saying that the $100 is justifiable. Although, the fact that the ps4 gives you an option is probably going to sell more ps4 cams. In my experience people that are told "you don't have to buy this" do tend to buy it.

He was very enthusiastic about the Kinect. He hates it now because a. it doesn't work and b. the games are crap.
If the new version works and has good games, then it may be different.
Regardless, though, I still don';t see it as viable. Microsoft are bundling it to kickstart it in a way that bundling the Remote with the Wii got that market going, but it's not the same. It might be built into the XBox One, but it's still not as fundamental to the design as the Remote was for the Wii. The majority of games will be able to ignore or or only use it trivially in design.

It's obvious why they're ahead now and you're entitled to your opinion on what you've seen look better. And since, as I've already mentioned, video games are a business first and an entertainment industry secondly, yeah, COD is truly that big of a draw with it being one of the highest selling franchises of all time and with it being probably the most popular/played annual ever, as bland as the game may seem to a lot. And it's a next gen COD, with xbox one exclusives too so, there's the draw ...

I wish I could take credit for equating MS's antics with XBOne to Zynga...but a million gamers made the parallel, too.
