A quick take on MS's E3 and the Kinect as a peripheral

@Shinobi and Vitro..

I am the one that wrote the OP and my understanding of peripheral is fine.
Like I already stated to you Shinobi.. you don't need the traditional controller to use your xbox one, unless of course you want to play games that require it.
Both the traditional controller and the Kinect are integral to the system, they both do the same thing with respect to operation, that they use different schemes to control the Xbox One is inconsequential.. they are both 'main' controllers.
Neither one can be considered a peripheral.
You simply choose to see it the other way because you either have a dislike for Microsoft and/or the Xbox One, or you're a PS fan itching to throw a couple digs at the Xbox.
Maybe both, I don't know.
Why is it that you can't accept the fact that the Kinect was designed to be an alternative, main controller for the Xbox?
Seriously. What's the problem?

Tell you what, we'll play a game of The Apprentice.

You sell Xbox One E edition (entertainment box with no gamepad but with Kinect) at $479 (est cost of controller)

I'll sell Xbox one G edition (gamer edition without Kinect and with gamepad) at $419 (est cost of Kinect)

And we'll let the market decide which is an optional peripheral and which is an integral component.
