@J_Allard:
Well, let me tell ya ... if everybody and all gamers welcomed kinect with open arms as the biggest and brightest invention since sliced bread, I wouldn't start this topic. And I'm not sure what it will add to the gaming experience, all I know is that most gamers are perfectly happy with a descent controller and a descent headset. But if you can't wait to surf the internet and stuff via Kinect I hope you have a great time, and really I mean that.
But on a side note: there's nothing wrong with improving good things we allready have. If it ain't broken, why would someone try to fix it ?
I personally like the way how Sony improves their PS+ services, but on the other hand I still prefer Spotify over Sony's Music Unlimited.
I know everybody makes mistakes every now and then .. but when companies keep making 'mistakes' over and over again while they obviously don't care about their customers and fans, maybe they need to think about their attitude, policies and culture.
And thanks to disolitude for pointing out VAST 3.0, but that doesn't make my theory in the OP completely invalid, cause I'm sure the XBox One in combination with the Silverlight component will be able to interprete XML as well.
Instead, it could prove mine and theprofo00's points that the Azure cloud is going to be deployed as an intelligent and hybrid commercials server framework.
