Well you managed to say it better than me :)

I feel like MS has neglected the Kinect in the lead up to the launch and even now post launch. There doesnt seem to be any special focus from MS on Kinect...they need to lead from the front with getting Kinect specific software.

Exactly. MS completely failed to show last gen why the Kinect should be an important piece of hardware to play hardcore games.

This gen they touted massive improvements in the tech, but none of it has transformed into solid gameplay. In fact, so far the Kinect games are continuing on the same trend of being awful from last gen. Rather than talking the big game, MS need to hit the studios and develop something which shows why Kinect is so necessary that they had to sacrifice hardware fidelity and a lower price point because of it.

Actually i dont think its important for MS to show Kinect as an important device for hardcore gaming...because lets face it, its not.

But they do need to use Kinect to appeal to casuals and come up with new fun ways to play. They havent done that at all with the new Kinect. Which is weird considering that they are bundling it with every X1...

Its like they half in, half out when it comes to Kinect.
