It knows when you are sleeping. It knows when you're awake.

How has the gaming media been towards this announcement? And what do other forums/comment sections look like?

Almost universally negative.

If you try to put electrical tape over the Kinect 2.0 sensors a laser burns through your tape, then your skull. Do not defy the machine.

Boogie2988 made some great points

"Because we're not going to buy this as a way to watch television, we have a cable provider for that, we have Netflix for that, what we're going to buy this for, is the games we can play. All these features are nice and I'm excited for them, but they're not necessary if the system does not have phenomenal games."


Totally agreed, my virgin media TiVo box does everything the Xbox one does - apart from saving me the 1 sec it takes to press button rather than 'talk' to TV - plus it also records, stores, has series links and most of all doesn't use as much power as a game console. It also doesn't have a camera that watches and listens to me all day :)

There is so much to hate about the reveal but for me it's the forced kinnect. It's pointless when the remote does it. There's ease of use/time saving then there's a feature for lazy people, this is the latter.

I just envision stories of couples having sex on couch and either camera gets hacked or there body 'movements' change channels and cries of 'oh, God' lead to lots of Xbox ones changing to religious channels.

This new creepy Kinect remembers me of this bit of Assassin's Creed II.

If I did end up getting it I'd probably end up unplugging it after use and throwing it in the closet.

What? LEAVE MY INSANE PARANOIA ALONEZ :P

On Facebook, you basically have people saying that the X1 is barely a gaming system, with supporters of the X1 saying that the people saying that are just poor and should move out of their moms basement.

The situation is pretty civil, all things considered.

So if the Kinect 2 is required for X1 to even function, why didn't they make Kinect 1 required to function for Xbox Slim? Why is it something we're stuck with /now/?

Because that would be stupid.

1. Kinect isn't an integral part of the 360's library of games or other functions.

2. It came out 5 years later, when the Kinect wasn't an integral part of the 360's library of games or other functions.

Did I mention the Kinect isn't an integral part of the 360's library of games or other functions?


And just to be clear, for those who dislike Kinect, you can still navigate the home menu with a controller, correct?


Of course. You do NOT in any way have to use Kinect currently. As for Kinect 2.0, it seems you still don't have to use it, you just have to have it on. Point it at a wall or something. Better yet, point it at a poster of a nude man eating a sammich.

Kinect 2.0 is gathering information on humans for later iterations which will be stronger, faster, smarter, and deadlier than any man.

More bad news.

I encourage you, via word of mouth (writing text :P) to make it a definite no. Don't support this garbage with one penny. I never owned a PlayStation...but PS4 is an absolute definite. My 360 was good but times and consoles have changed. Don't buy, and encourage others to put their foot down, too! :)
