In a move almost everyone saw coming, the Xbox One drops the Kinect June 9th taking the Xbox One price down to 399.99$. This move was made just to compete with the Playstation 4s 400$ price, now the 100$ gap between the two has been closed. Credit to Microsoft that they have listened and changed almost everything consumers have asked for, and slowly but surely the respect of their fans and of the gaming community returns. Most fans didn't even use the Kinect, even though the device is a cool innovative way to use the console, and without the device all the cool features shown at E3 are mostly useless. Microsoft’s head of Xbox, Phil Spencer said "We’ve also heard from people they just like to play games with a controller in their hands," "We’ll continue to innovate on Kinect, I think it’s an important differentiator for us, but I also know there are people out there that want to make the choice when they want to make it." The $499 model with Kinect will continue to be sold, but Microsoft will also introduce a standalone Kinect sensor for Xbox One "later this fall." Most people didn't want a home entertainment system they just wanted a gaming console. I think Microsoft had the right idea and a good one but I believe it was a bit ahead of its time.
