The Xbox 360 in multi-player is peer to peer, so this would be a peer to peer exchange of positioning data. Since these are Avatar-based games using the Avatar system incorporated with the Xbox 360, it would stand to reason they're using Microsoft software. You can't use Kinect on the Xbox 360 without using Microsoft software, so I would assume the same is true in Xbox 8/Kinect 2. |
Thank you for the clarification.

That is problematic if true. To the consumer that just plugs the system straight up into the TV all it does is add to the cost. Plus what would they do when playing PS4, just not use those WiFi speakers? Meanwhile on the opposite end of the spectrum the audiophile with 7.2 surround sound wouldn't dare use those features because it would be a downgrade to his system. Stuck in between are the guys like me who have a basic home theatre. All my consoles are wired to the receiver which in turn connects to the tv and speakers. In order for me to use these features that are already common on receivers, XBOX8 would need to replace my receiver. I can see why Microsoft would want to do that, but I can't see why the average consumer would want to do that.
