There was no "choice that helped PS4". Both PS4 and Xbox One only had one price point. I think you mean lack of choice.
Also, Microsoft aren't doing this to give players another choice, even though that is the end result. They're doing it for the same reason they reversed the DRM. Because pre order figures for PS4 went viral. And this time it's the overall sales of the Xbox One. Although personally I don't think Xbox One is in any kind of trouble at all.
Anyway, I think this is a great move, and will help boost sales for ppl who dont want Kinect. They shuould never have forced Kinect on people in the first place.
Whether MS believed in the Kinect or not, most people didn't. And with the NSA scandal, that just made things even worse.

The choice I referenced was the choice between a $400 console and a $500 console. That was a choice that favored the PS4. Now MS is giving you another choice with a second console that is $400. I think I meant exactly what I said.
Of course they're doing it to give people another choice. Which they want to spur sales. It's funny watching people try to downplay the choice side while harping on the sales side, as if they are not directly connected.
