With a good price and marketing this has a chance to be a huge success in America and ONLY America, thanks to all this entertainment stuff and that deal with NFL. But MS has to play this right because there are A LOT of other devices that do the same thing, the only difference are the fancy user interface and voice controls. This is where MS marketing needs to be perfect, they need to make sure people understand that this device is better than the one you already have (that goes beyond just voice control). So who knows how this will play out.
Now all of the above is from a entertainment perspective (the "casual" market if you will). From a gamers perspective however, if all this things we are hearing are true (internet connection to active games, fee to play used games, etc) it will leave a bad taste in gamers mouth.
