Why didn't MS leave the pricecut and app announcement for their E3 conference?

Because to the majority of the Xbox One gaming community dropping the Kinect is about the worst decision ever.   Sure it would have been met with a few cheers at E3.  But moreso, it would have been meet with boos and screams to get rid of Phil.

People the bought into the vision of Xbox One and early adoptors are not happy at all.

I don't see the point of getting and Xbox One without Kinect.  I'd just stay on PC and get a controller.  Kinect was this gen's innovation.  I'm not sure what it is now.

The last thing they want is people yelling and throwing things at E3.  Which is exactly what this disaster would have cause to happen.

I disagree with that, but I respect that you're sticking with your guns regarding this.

Thanks man.

And yes, I would have been leading the boos against them dropping Kinect if they announced it at E3.   I know I would not be alone in this there are quite a fe Xbox One users that are not happy at all.  It would have been THE talk about E3.  "Fans, Developers and Reporters, react Angrily to Microsoft Announcement"

Some that hated Kinect realized, once you get to use it, it's something important.  Heck, EVEN Boogie realize Kinect is good and you shouldn't get and Xbox One without it. 

Think I'm making this up?  See for yourself:
