Since I've already objectively proven that Sony has purchased the internet for 1.3 Billion Dollars~, hence the debt obv, here: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=182636&page=1 , and thus the moneyhatting of consumers reasonably follows, I think we can come to the conslusion that the request of a Kinectless-XB1 was
in hampering the XBO's prospects.
While I expect the Kinectless-Bundle to increase sales substantially, possibly even claiming 1 or 2 NPD's, I am an optimist, and even I realize this is only a short term solution, even if Sony does nothing to counter it.
Had MS stuck with their vision and laser focused on the root of the problem, (bane voice) the price (/bane voice), they would've taken the hit, which is barely anything considering the ps3 launched at 300+ loss and the XO's loss is sub 200 even with the Kinect included at 399.
However, I think consumer's knew this and wanted the XB1 to suffer so instead of asking for this reasonable decision, they asked for an option that splits the userbase and remove one of the consoles distinguishing features, claiming they would buy it when they kinect is gone but now are saying why should I buy et when its just a weaker PS4 nao?
Somethin is fishy.
Scumbag Consumers to blame?
