Fad: an intense and widely shared enthusiasm for something, especially one that is short-lived; a craze. The popularity of Kinect seems to fit perfectly to that describition, and i am wondering if that craze will ever happen again to the Kinect 2.0 and if it was a right choice for microsoft to bundle it with each Xbox One? There are people who like the kinect and like it a lot, and i understand that. but is it the huge system seller that Kinect for 360 once was? also, thanks for giving me an actual well thought reply, instead of calling me a fanboy who needs to pick on something because i lost the graphics edge, my god.... |
Well who is complaining about it? Mostly i see people complaining that had no interest in the xbox in the first place. People also were predicting XBO to fail on arrival. People screamed doom on PS3 at launch and 3DS etc Forums are not the best place to get honest answers. A lot of answers will be ergh, biased is the only word i can think for it right now.
We really will not know if kinect is a fad or not ever. Kinect is a console now. If you reworded your question to was kinect gaming a fad then i would say yes as i never understood why people wanted a kinect in the first place. But Kinect 1 and Kinect 2.0 are two different entities and two different strategies. You will need to wait and see if XBO fails or if it is successful before answering your question.
Oh and no problem. I saw that comment as well lol
