I never had a problem with Kinect coming in the box, my problem was with the DMR and used games. Unlike the DRM previously, the Kinect can be turned off. I think it's a good thing to include Kinect because that way developers can come up with really neat ideas and not have to worry about a low attach rate. It also is what really differentiates the X1 and Ps4 because without it there would even less of a difference than the ps3 and 360.


But the kinect must be plugged in. That irks me just as much as DRM. It feels like MS is once again removing choice from consumers. Why would they require it to be plugged in for x1 to work? Because they know that if they didn't gamers would sell it immediately. When you have to do crap like that to force something on people then clearly there is something wrong. If it is truly compelling people will seek it out. You shouldn't have to force it down our throats.
