Xbox One System Discussion

[Serpentor]

Speaking of Kinect, I'm really surprised they didn't show practically anything for it, especially after they touted how more advanced it was than the original during the reveal conference in May. I'm no Kinect fan, but I am one of those who are just waiting to be won over rather than actively hating on it.

I think the plan was to just announce a bit of everything to try and get everyone excited, instead of focusing on a specific portion of the market.

Now that Kinect is mandatory for XO ownership, I suppose they don't need to push it anymore.

Kinect is actually awesome, but they haven't done anything good for it. But for instance, the Star Wars game was handled poorly, and they could do a better job with it now since the new sensor can detect your wrist motion.

It's a motion capture system for $150 and a 3D scanner, it's cool enough just for that.

They aren't

 

[spider]

They aren't

I hope not, but amazon has a few for preorder at $99.

 

[Snake Plissken]

70$ will probably be the going rate for next gen. They are already ridiculously overpriced.

I'm sure we will get a lot of fluff lazy games this gen too for that price.

 

[lerath666]

it's a placeholder price. they xbox 1 preorders were 999.99 lat week.

Not so sure. I don't think we will see a rise in teh price of teh games themselves.

 

[darthviper107]

nah, there's a few listed at $100 but that will go down to the correct price. The launch ones are listed at $60

 

[Serpentor]

I believe it's already been stated that games will remain 60.

 

[Snake Plissken]

Not so sure. I don't think we will see a rise in teh price of teh games themselves.

I sure hope so. Just think, people went out and spent 60$ on colonial marines.

And the collector's editions of games are around 150$ for some games.

We will see another price bump in the next 5 years or so.
