yeah people saying "are you too lazy to grab a remote and press button" probably never saw what a real home theatre set up is supposed to be...
they probably buy some all in one shitty altec or Sony kits....
I have 3 remotes just for my sound system set up between amp, pre amp and subwoofer and that's not the worst.... then I have the TV remote and the cable box remote...
yeah sure I can have a universal remote.... but a decent one for a set up like that is an harmony remote and those are almost more expensive than a PS4 for the high end ones... and no less than 80 bucks for the low end model MSRP... and I still have to press buttons and on such a remote it is not that easy for everybody....

so yeah I'd take an XB1 with Kinect packed in for even 600 bucks if not more.... cause it is well worth it for real media entertainment enthusiast....
