My feelings the same Ckarlic. I mean has the kinect introduced anything really new to gaming since xbox1's release besides as a vocie/hand remote for the TV? Wish they would offer a kinect-less console instead but I know that won't happen. Yes, you have options but those who already have a DVD-ROM XBox1 better have continued support by Microsoft for firmware updates so they can use it as a DVD player.
This decision is for one reason, that Microsoft wants to go DRM as originally planned. They want you always on-line for their future plans.Analyst Michael Pachter also gives his opinion on this decision if true.
