id rather choose to have it than be forced to have it, lets face it....not everyone wants the camera

Like how sony forced blu ray onto people? 


Exactly, they both needlessly drove up the price of the console.

for those that are just dead against kinect i just thought about something and why it may not be possible to turn it off.  one of the benefits of the kinect is it's ability to recognize the contoller. that benefit for the kinect haters is the biggest problem.  there is no controller number indicator on the controller now.  i'm pretty sure you can plug it in and recognize the controllers like before.  


Ok? What does this have to do with the fact that a lot of people don't want the Kinect and feel its being forced upon them. The Kinect will be just as useful as before, just more multimedia friendly and powerful, but its not going to change in the games department. Its still going to be very, very shallow without an added motion remote. Microsoft is just forcing it upon us because they dont want to risk letting the market decide about a peripheral device a second time. They know lightning wont strike twice. Xbox Live was forced upon us and people accepted it, now they want to do the same with the Kinect saying the Xbox cant work without it. Theres someting very, very wrong about this picture.

Love how the PS fans are all "disliking" the feature or Microsoft's choice, wtf rofl?


Love how the MS fans are all thinking that all who bashes the Kinect are Sony fans, wtf rofl.

 

seriously, I have friends who love the Xbox but hated the kinect, I wonder why? hmmm

ahah dude, we all have friends who are credible because they like the console we do not like and have our own oppinion. I'm so surprised.
Also repeating my "wtf rofl" is not really going to help there :) You still have no credibility in this thread.

Oh... And we are talking about Kinect 2... So again wtf are you talking about with your imaginary friend? He is lucky enough to have an Xbox One + Kinect 2 and he is already hating it? yah more credible, keep going ;D

Similar idea. But different. One, A bluray player is internal. No visible useless object or setup is needed. And DVD's weren't disallowed or something else dumb. Kinect is forced in order to even use the console. Only the price point was the PS3's enemy. Kinect has more negatives for a person who doesn't want it.

What the hell are you talking about with the "more negatives"... Not different at all; both included with/in the console and forced by MS/Sony and both adding additional features, nothing negative (the fact you do not care about the features is another thing).

The only negatives are for people believing in big conspiracies which is hilarious :)

Kinect Negatives to people who don't like it:

Forced to put something on top of your TV. Extra setup for a device the person doesn't want.

Added cost to overall system.

Forced to be pluged in to just turn system on.

Bluray drive Negatives:

It's reads slow.

It made the cost of the console too high for several years.

A Bluray drive in the end doesn't dissallow CD or DVD usage. You aren't forced to buy a HDTV with the PS3. And it's your system disc drive. Which you do need.

The Kinect is a added external device. That just adds voice control options, camera tracking, and video conferencing. All of which aren't overall needed to run the system. Now if the Xbox One didn't come with a regualar controller. Then it be a different story. I see Kinect like the Wii Remote being forced to operate the Wii Menu. Nintendo shouldn't of done this. Especially with people launching Brawl and only used the Pro/GC controller.  Same annoyance with the Kinect. I hate the Kinect for these reasons. But I don't hate the Kinect existing. I'd just like a choice to not use it. Like I would like a choice to expand my storage space on iPhone with SD Cards. But Apple fails in this area. So I don't own a iPhone.

WOW so as we already said price is a negative for both the "forced to put it under or on top of TV" is the "more negatives"  you are talking about... Okay, that make sense now :)

Seriously if you came here again to explain the people who are looking forward to Kinect 2 that you do not care about what it offers, fine; but stop pretending people are like forced to use it lol The only "negative" you seem to make a huge deal about it is the fact that you need to put it somewhere in your living room.. big deal, really...

Who said that lol Stop pretending or assuming stuffs dude I'm not the one claiming things out of my ass :)
Fact : you have no friend hating Kinect 2... And if you really have one; he is also claiming things out of his ass!

Let me try to do the same : "I have ton of friends who hate the PS4 and the new controller; so I'm credible and what I'm saying is legit"... See, it sounds a bit silly :)

What are you talking about. I am forced to use it. I can't turn the system on, if I just leave it in the dumb box. I don't even care about the higher price of the system. I jsut want to leave it in the box and never use it...

lol wut....They're two different things. My friend hates the Kinect 2.0 because you need it for the Damn system work, right?  and besides the DS4 is a natural evolution of the Dualshock. seems like you're the only one talking out of your ass.

You are not forced to use it; just to plug it. No big deal.
By the way; I'm not saying it is not weird from MS to force the device to be plugged in even if you do not use it... I give you that; but it is nothing close to a be an issue in my oppinion. Not a big deal; not a deal breaker...

ROFL dude... Did you REALLY argue with me about the DS4 while I was just making an random exemple of talking about our ass.
You know what, sit down, take the time to read before to become all blue and reply non-sense :)

I have no friends who said such things about the PS4/new controller... It was all made up to show you how it is ridiculous to claim such thing as "my friend is blah blah blah". You are killing me ahah.
