@reddevils Might be! Lots of open world stuff already announced. I feel like it's way more than this time last gen for sure.
I think MS is learning that Kinect isn't really useful for games but seems they're making kinect more useful for general OS/navigation. Still, options are always best and if you can knock $100 off the price without it, I don't see why they shouldn't.
@jackanderson, I think MS has said they won't go in the red anymore on Xbox. I don't think we'll see them selling at a loss honestly. I think they could drop to $399 minus kinect and still be in the green though.
Saying these launch titles (for both systems) is only scratching the surface is totally accurate I think. When you think about it, most games that are amazing are games that have been delayed multiple times. Meaning the more time in development, the more polished and worked out the game is. Launch games (not all, of course) are hurt because they don't really have the opportunity to be delayed. Shortcuts need to made, features cut & graphic fidelity skimmed over. Once games for this n...
I just don't see the market for this... PC gamers pride themselves on hand-picking components and building rigs themselves, both for the fun of it and because it's considerably cheaper than anything pre-built. And console gamers will find what they want in wiiu/ps4/xb1 and for half the price. If someone has a better idea on who the target market is for on this I would like to know.
Examples?
So far that I know of, MT for FTP games (of course) and MT that in no way effect normal gameplay if you choose not to go that route on retail games.

A lot of dumb people out there too. People who eat up adverts and if they see a shiny xbox one ad, that's what they'll buy without even researching.
the brand more loyal to it's gamers creates gamers more loyal to that brand. Simple. And I'm terrible at math.
I like that. I like the white xb1 look too. Kinda wish consoles were white. I don't mean that to sound racist.
you think ps3 will be on ps4 or ps5? personally I'd like to see ps4 on ps5 with ps3 on ps4. Ps6 will obviously get ps5 unless ps5 ends up on ps5.
@batzi, what soulmikey said.
Funny when people are excited for a game they shout TAKE MY MONEY
Unless it's MGS:GZ and then it's Konami wants all my money!
Some might see $1b on ads as promotion, others may see it as a sign of them struggling to get a grip on the market and doing everything to get their name out there.
can they screw it up? I swear no matter how bad nintendo is doing, fans don't admit it. It's always "next year!" and "wait till _______ releases, it'll move systems!"
@come_bom That's rewarding your consumers. MS's clause is punishing consumers of the other system. Big difference.
Did they really? That's awesome if so.
@thrust you were wanting the disagrees.
"if you want to bring your game to the Xbox One but also release it on other platforms, then all platform releases need to happen at the same time. That is, unless you already had an exclusivity agreement in place with another platform predating the announcement of ID@Xbox."
I'm wary of MS. Period.

Does it cause any bottleneck or actually help simplify the process? According to Klarowicz, “We haven’t played around with the eSRAM much yet."
