Microsoft entered the 8th gen too confident. It thought that, because the original Kineckt sold really well and the XBox 360 practically draw agaist the PlayStation 3, they could follow the same strategy and keep being succesfull (not to mention the DRM policies). When everyone called them out, they had to make a new plan to compete against the PS. Even Nintendo didn't follow the motion controlls, in favor of a tablet-like controller. It wasn't a good idea, but you have to admit tablts are very popular nowadays, so the logic is at least there.
