Is X1 forcing Kinect on us any different than PS3 forcing Bluray on us?

DVD Drive = scratched discs, less quality picture, less storage meaning multiple discs for big games(i.e gtav) , so if you lose a discs you're SOL.

Blu Ray Drive = scratch resistant discs, HD picture quality, Vast amount of storage so you can carry big games on 1 disc

This was innovation in the game industry that pushed gaming forward for the better.

That's not innovation that's improvement.

Innovation is like gaming on the cloud instead of physical format.

A total different approach of accessibility and interaction. You don't touch the storage, no need to travel to buy, no need for storage space in and outside devices.

That's what innovation means in a sense, improving something that already is succesful. DVD drives are dying at a rapid pace and pushing blu ray on the market was/is benificial. Blu Ray discs allow devs to shove more game content on discs giving us a better game experience. Devs hated having to build a game then compress content and then remove content they wanted to keep because the DVD couldn't carry the content and then they would have to dumb down the ps3 version because they have to make multiplats even on both consoles. 

Blu ray drives/discs gave us more content in our games.
