I think people fail to understand this and it causes unnecessary arguments. Take out the Kinect and the X1 works perfectly without it. The UI works fine and MOST importantly the games work without it. Take away the traditional controller and you cant do jack shit with your X1. Now if MS took away your ability to control the UI with the traditional controller and made it mandatory to use the Kinect then yes its an intergral part of the system but they havent done that and they never will. The wii remote is good example of not being a peripheral where the move is...yet they do exactly the same thing... |
Actually, the Wii Remote (and the traditional controllers as well of course) are peripherals as well. Even the hard drive inside the XBone and PS4 is technically a computer peripheral, despite being absolutely mandatory for the console to work.
