If Kinect helped the 360, which it did, and wasn't available on the PS3, that would be an exclusive feature that pushed units. In business, that's what matters. Besides, since Kinect is "the fastest selling piece of hardware in history", why shouldn't it be brought up?

I was commenting more on the "exclusives don't matter" but it is about "the experience" that was said.  I was trying to say exclusiveness would matter.  Kinect would be worth discussing as far as exclusives, because it provided a unique play experience, and exclusive content.  There is no Dance Central on the PS3, for example.  There is Just Dance, but that, while in the same category, is a different animal.

Ah, I see.

For an individual who sticks with a brand, despite it not showing any differences, and is worse in some way, is merely a partisan who has emotional attachment and gets an emotional buzz out of business moves.  So, I did want to see what might stand out as unique that would keep them coming back. "The experience" is such a vague comment, it doesn't say anything.  And also, the hardware alone doesn't really say anything, it is what can be done with it that matters.

With the other person I am dialogging with here, apparently the UI is SO important to them, they are going to stick with Microsoft, eventhough all we have seen is the tiles, which are on the 360.  Without even knowing what the UI will be, based only on a rationalization Microsoft knows how to code, they are sticking with Microsoft.  Try to press why, and you get partisan yammering.  Blech.

For me, my partisan campness to a large degree died when I went from an Atari 8bit compute and got a Commodore 64.
