    Re: Next gen Xbox

    if i can keep my account and arcade games on the nextbox chances are very high that im getting one. ill just put a piece of ducttape over the kinect sensor, but i hate having to pay for a built-in kinect while im not going to use it.

    If what the president of Eidos says is true, I probably won't be getting the next Xbox.

Plus I dont want a camera that is always on and watching my family at all times.

    If these rumors are true, microsoft can kiss my money goodbye... Sony's next iteration is looking badass.
    If Kinect must be always watching you, then why don't you just turn it around too just like you are now doing it? If MS really want to do this for video watcher limits, you can cheat it too easily with the kinect sensor. Just like on DC2 (Dance central 2), it has and achievement that you need to win 20 dance battles that you'll need two players, I just place a chair with some poles on it and Kinect will recognise it as a player, and now you can move a bit around and you'll have more points than the chair and win 20 dance battles.
    So, Kinect is easily cheatable with recognition and turning the sensor around!
    Just like that? Turn it around? I would much rather see them make the system 100 bucks cheeper and leave the stupid camera out. Make it optional so its cheaper for those that dont want it. It doesnt matter though, the nextbox will not last long if what the article above turns out to be true.

    Right now I'm really excited for the PS4, and I'm definitely looking forward to seeing what Microsoft has to offer, too. I'm not buying in to any of the rumors just yet, though. I'll wait until Microsoft actually announces something. If both systems end up being pretty much on par with each other, I'll probably go with the PS4, just because I've never owned a Playstation console before, and I feel like I've been missing out on some good IPs.

    Whether the rumor is true or not, I think it is a good idea to spread the rumor. Get people talking about it. Let Microsoft know that this type of thing is not OK. Maybe, just maybe it can change their mind if they are heading in that direction.

    This type of thing is definitely not ok. If true, it will stop me even considering the xbox even if Trials is exclusive to it. It's so so wrong. If I buy a game I'll do whatever the hell I want with it.

    If you can have all your arcade games etc from the 360 I will be getting the nextbox. If not then I will be trying them both extensively before I even think of purchasing either

    I hope Micorsoft doesn't show off their Kinect 2.0 too much, shuving that in our faces and showing now real core games will be a step in the wrong direction if this happens at the Nextbox's conference, they need gaming comebacks, not just Kinect 2.0.
