The problem, I think, is that there is no win/win scenario here. Sony's route to make their camara/sensor optional and secondary has good and bad aspects. Microsoft's decision to make Kinect mandatory has both good and bad aspects.

Personally, I don't care anything about having a camera on my gaming console. I'd rather have the extra money it would cost so I can invest it into a game. I doubt I'll ever buy the thing unless it's cheap and they come out with something amazing. I just want to play games. All the other stuff is just pure, unimportant fluff. I don't need to speak to it, I don't need to gesture at it, and I certainly don't need it to post my picture on some kind of social network.

Forget about talking to the camera or posting selfies, I doubt many people care about that. Without any games for it, not many people will buy it. I'm pretty sure if they came out with an amazing game, people would probably run out and buy it. But I think they fear that even if they do come out with a game, no one will buy the camera.
