The Kinet was never going to work in the real world for the vast majority of games and it takes up space that I don't have in my living room so I for one am glad to see the back of it. Also I don't see why people should have to have highspeed internet in order to play games on their console that they paid for. You see I like ten percent of the country live in an area where there are no highspeed lines and that whole satilite based internet thing costs too much money and doesn't work for gaming(I know because I tried it)so I am glad to see Microsoft getting rid of that too.

The Xbox one is in an odd place right now, sort of a worst of both worlds. Sure, the online requirements were terrible and M did well to ditch them but it's still a system that is HEAVILY reliant on bandwidth.

The system itself cannot do anything until you download and install the operating system and many games require a 'day one' patch that can be up around 6 to 7 Gigabytes.

If you live in an area with poor internet speeds or reliability then your time with the system will probably be frustrating.

The company was WAY off on what they thought people wanted and now we have this weird hybrid. System updates have been coming in rapidly to implement things that should have been there from the start.

It's a good thing that Don Matrick left when he did or Ballmer may have had him skinned alive.

Wow,6 or 7 gigs,really?! Well I guess it still not the system for me,too bad:(

Six gigs of updates for each game,that five hundred gig hard drive will fill up fast and there is no way I can do that much updating for each game on my internet.

Shame because I was looking forward to getting an XBox one but boy they have really screwed up. I picked Xbox for the last two generations,way to screw up microsoft.
