If microsoft can manage to sell 350k from retail/download and 350k from bundles [then] this game can sell 700k this month.

Wow, what a bold prediction!

I assume your next predictions to be even more spectacular, maybe something like "If the current month is december and the current day of month is 25, then it's christmas!"

I predicted xbox one price cuts when titanfall launched

Most people already predicted Xbox One price cuts shortly after the console was released, when it became clear that sales were rather disappointing.

 

You might want to rename yourself to "Captain Obvious"...

I certainly think this is Kinects last hope, if this bombs, i expect kinectless SKU at E3


Last hope? The console hasn't even been out 5 months and is outselling the Xbox 360 during the same period. This with being more expensive and having launch competition (The PS3 was out a year later then the Xbox 360).    We are not even CLOSE to "last hopes".   Kinect IS more then just about the GAMES. Twitch ALONE has proven that (although you could say that is still GAME related).  The voice control and IR control are ALL related to the Kinect. 

You will NOT see a Kinect-less Xbox One.  You MIGHT see a much quicker hardware revision which losers cost of both the XBox One and Kinect.

Sell? It seems most of it sales will be bundled free.

I don't think the consumer interest in this game will be anything remotely comparable to the original.

Hay its just my opinion, im convinced we will see a kinenctless sku this year, if there isnt a major sucess story for it, MS want marketshare and to do that they need to lower price or have a Wii Sports style phenomenon for Kinect.

People are ignoring the main part of his prediction here. He isnt saying the game will sell this much on its own. He is predicting it is going to be bundled with every xbox one for a while. If that happens, then it doesnt really matter whether or not people want the game, if they get an xbox one they will have to get the game. He is saying 3/4th if his predictions sales will come from bundled console sales...

These xbox haters are unable to read i guess!!!

Even if its a free give away, many will not want it. This bundle could put off people from getting an X1 and run to the PS4

Seriously?  People wouldnt buy a console because it came with a free game they dont want?   I dont see that at all...  If people are that afraid of being around the vicinity of kinect sport rivals then they certainly werent even close to wanting an xbox one in the first place...

Maybe they did but this puts them of as not every one wants waggle game, Forza 5 or titanfall are awesome giveaways.  Even with free Ksports and X1 costing 450 if you need to buy the type of game you actually want the PS4 becomes a better buy.  If your on the fence....
