Wow, big news out of the MS camp today. I suppose it had to happen, they need to be competetive on price with the PS4, and this will allow them to do that. I still like a lot of the features the kinect has from a user interface standpoint, but it is pretty useless for gaming, until they can demonstrate otherwise. I suspect a lot of people will jump on the X1 at the lower price point as well.

The better news IMO is the removal of apps from behind the xbox live paywall. That was a low value proposition for the consumer.
