really I can't think of a reason to open the thing, looking for a sale or trade so if anyone is interested. Maybe for an ipad? other electronics? make me a cash offer?
thunderdome aside there is not enough games to justify owning both right now. I play fifa, ac, bf4 on ps4...really I am set for now

Whether the games make full use of the Kinect (Kinect Sports Rivals, Xbox Fitness) or lesser use (head tracking in Forza 5, voice lures in Dead Rising 3) doesn't really matter because the Kinect does more than that, so pick a game you like and play it. Where gaming is concerned, the tech is only getting better. Plug your cable box / PVR into the Xbox and try using voice to control that. Use Kinect to control your TV, PVR, and receiver. If you're serious in asking, then that's my advice. Just try using it like everybody else does for a few months.
I would never try and make a definitive statement on what using a PS4 is like because beyond playing it once at Best Buy (though the DS4 controller
does feel better than the DS3 IMO), it's the same with criticizing the Xbox One without giving it an honest try. It's the same reason I will comment about experiences using iOS, Android, and WP... because I own at least one of each platform and have first-hand experiences with them. But I don't own a BlackBerry 10 device, so I'd never comment definitively on it.
One thing I've found incredibly useful: I was watching Archer on Netflix last night and went to get a drink, forgetting to pause the show. I said "Xbox, pause" and the show paused. Grabbed my drink, and as I was getting close to the couch "Xbox, play" and the show resumed as I sat down. Works with Netflix, works with live TV, works with music, etc. Don't have to use a remote, a controller, or my phone (though the TV guide function on Smartglass is cool).
