The bad parts.
-Mandatory Kinect use. Console won't work unless its plugged in.
-Mandatory game installations. Console won't be able to read directly from disc.(Is this how they're limiting used games?)
-Xbox 360 controllers won't work on it, which is weird since there's no major redesign for the Xbox 720 controller.

The Good parts
-Multi-tasking. You can have multiple games/apps open at once.(Don't see why someone would have 2 games open at once though)
-Kinect 2.0 much more capable.
-Near-identical layout for Xbox 720 controller
-MOAR better graphicz

Mandatory Kinect?...I don´t believe this, but if it´s true, no Nextbox for me.

Not at all unless you're counting Kinect 2.0.

On paper, PS4 > Xbox 720.

He never said specs weren't finalized...he said they were old. He was basically just giving some people "hope".

TBH, if all this is true, the bad with this console heavily outweighs the good. Microsoft better have some fucking amazing games coming if they want people to put up with this.

Hello $99 nextbox!

Yeah, I'm gonna give this box a pass if this turns out to be true....

$99 (with financing) offcourse.

How much financing would it take to offset 249 or more?

This would be in the form of a Live subscription, right? So, ten dollars a month if the console is 349$?

Article basically says a person sounds more badass on the internet when they say they are not buying because of a rumor.

When in reality, you have no idea what it really does, price, or its games on the horizon. You just make a call now based on unconfirmed things, though we know Kinect part is true). The article says its really issues like money (or lack there of), you dont like Xbox, or just want to wait a few years before you buy this.

Who knows, 2 years, 3 year financing deals. Charge $50 worth of interest. Throw in some Live Gold.
