These are bad news to some fans since the console is no longer the promised, innovative, all-in-one system. Now it looks even more of a less powerful Playstation 4 with slightly different game library. X1 was thought by some to eventually develop into something different thanks to Kinect integration.

Since I was never considering motion gaming, these came as good news to me. But obviously, this isn't what everyone wanted.

When exactly will my Kinect stop to work?

 

Doesn't relate to what I said.

Much like Eyetoy/Playstation 4 Camera, PS Move and X360 Kinect.. it is now an accessory. Game developers will no longer design games with Kinect-integration in mind.

Since developers didn't exploit Kinect integration, the odds are they wont make much use of it as an accessory. Zappykins here is a big Xbox fan and that's preciesly what's bothering him.

i call BS, developers werent making much use of it ANYWAY. how much games were in development? Now you can argue that it would have been used anyway but I doubt that. Why would they? Xone wasnt doing good enough to justify 3rd parties making games JUST for kinect and any multiplat game wasnt going to use it. Why spend extra money on a version that wasnt going to sell as much as the lead console one?
