There's no causality to that argument. |
Actually there is ...
Third party publishers don't like add-ons because only a small portion of the userbase will own them, and few people who are interested in their games will be willing to buy an expensive add-on to play them, so they usually only give these add-ons token support; essentially, they devote a handful of third rate developers to work on low budget games that will be released in the wake of the add-on as cheap cash-ins on the device's popularity.
The fact that it is not standard equipment means that it will never be well supported. While they're just rumours at this point in time, the reason why the rumours indicate that the next XBox will include Kinect at launch is because third party publishers will never give Kinect real support as an add-on.
