Heres another story 24million people bought the original Kinect, most are now unused getting dusty in a draw. I know more than 10 people that bought into Kinect and not one uses it anymore, and they wouldnt buy into it again, unless forced to like they are currently with XBOne.
If it was the future as you claim, there would be alot of love for it from the current owners and i just dont see any. The future is a cheaper mass market price and i hope MS see this.

Awe that's sad, they don't sound like fun people. But no I don't agree with you assumption that most don't use it. Kinect Adventures the pack in with Kinect was as of last week still the 11th most purchased game title in North America! It's still selling quite well, even with X1 and Kinect 2.0 just months away.
There are always people that can't adjust to the new advances in tech and society, they just shouldn't be allowed to hold the rest of us back. There is a good word for that, just can't think of it at the moment.
Perhaps you should try for some new more fun friends? Even the most die hard fans of other consoles have all gone 'Wow, neat, cool, can I try' when I show them Kinect. I'd never want to play Skyrim without it.

This is what they all said when they got it, but like the Wii, like the PS Move, they tired of it quickly and went back to just wanting a pad.
And again as i said earlier the features you seem to be talking about and what MS ever talk about are all the voice features, you dont require $100+ camera for that, a cheap $5-10 mic array would do that and could easily be packed in and massivley reduce the price of the console.

If its so cheap and easy for a mic array, why has no other company made a device yet? Trust me I have been looking. There are some tv s with voice controls (i have heard the voice controls do not work well). Other than that what is there? Why hasnt roku, or some other tv streaming device come up with great voice controls like kinect? It hears me from any room in my house. It works great. I challenge you to find a device that is priced the same or cheaper than kinect, and will let me watch my media with voice. The xbox one will expand upon this to include even more media than I can currently watch by voice. Please link me some devices that can be used with my current tv. I am really seriously interested in them. They dont even need a camera, just functional voice commands, that work well, and is priced the same or less than an xbox with kinect or an xbox one. I see people sya its aeasy and cheap all the time, but I dont see the products that do it yet. where are they?
