They really can't compete with the amount resources that MS can afford to throw at the software research side to support Kinect. Plus, Kinect fits with MS' whole natural user interface play. So just like Sony got extra benefit from using bluray, MS will get extra benefit from kinect. |
If you read the article it seems pretty clear that 3D cameras don't really have any extra benefit for gaming, other then the initial wow factor anyways, I'd go so far to say that MS fell for the wow factor themselves and realized too late (if at all) that it isn't going to work like they thought, I think MS thought about marketing while pursuing kinect and kinda forgot about the fact the technology has to work
