Needless Gimmick?

Wait, the PS1 had a CD Drive, the PS2 had a DVD drive, and PS3 had a Blu-ray player. 

I forget when the 'needless gimmicky effect' of rumble was added to those.  But that's it was at one time.  Plus two sticks, etc.  Things are just needless gimmick till people like and expect them.

The Causals will buy an Xbox One with Kinect because it will do the most for them.  It's a fun party/exercise/dance/gaming console, plus they can talk to it and have it do stuff for them.  It should be the easiest and most convenience device of it's kind out there.

Like a Harmony Remote that you don't have to program and can talk to. 

The casuals won't buy the most expensive console out there, if so, the PS3 would have destroyed the 360 straight away, And how did you ever consider a blu ray player a gimmick, that's just nonsense

And stop overestimating the kinect please, because most casuals will buy a 360 with a kinect way before an xbox one "it is the cheapest option after all"

Ha ha ha, seriously, the Blu-ray was a total unnecessary gimmick when it came out, because there already was a HD format that the manufactures preferred.  It wasn't needed at all.  Caused a format battle, and physical media has lost because of it.

Guess you didn't realize, at least here in the states, the Xbox 360 + Kinect has been more expensive than the PS3 for much of the time.

But whatever, when someone says things like 'destroyed the 360' it's usually a sign of where they are coming from.
