Now the competition can really start.

I'm kinda inclined to search for all the people that said they'd never drop kinect.

I dont see the point in doing something like that. MS seemed pretty dedicated to Kinect. There was good reason to believe that they wouldnt have dropped Kinect.

And on the flip side of that, there was also good motivation as to why they should drop it.

I dont see either opinion as being unreasonable.

Because it's fun to point those things out to people, especially when they're really adamant about it. There is no malicious intent behind something like this (or at least not for me) it's just a fun part of forum posting, when someone makes a prediction like this, he should be aware that people might come back to call him out on it, when/if it turns out wrong and there's no harm in doing that (of course there are always points where things stop being funny)

Especially in this case I really don't see why anyone would be mad when he's being called out for being wrong, after all this is nothing but good news for the Xbox (even though I've seen people trying to spin this saying things like this would make the developer community mad, because it's going to split the userbase etc.)

I agree with you. But in this case, both arguments could be well backed up.

Some people make crazy claims without backing it up...that would be the best time to do something like that.
