We all know the rumors of a Kinect-less Xbox One but let me ask: would it work for you? Would a Kinect-less Xbox One work for you?
 
Honestly. I've gotten used to kinect now that it's working without any issues on my side. I guess having it makes my gaming life much easier. No regrets having kinect on my Xbox One.
 
It would work for me if I didn't like the new Kinect so much. I've started going to the gym and have used Xbox fitness a few times when I couldn't make it and honestly? I could feel it the next day. I was in a crabby mood because someone had ticked me off so I went and did (most) of the Moussa (sp) fighting workout to receive my stress and it was one hell of a workout and the Kinect tracked me beautifully. Between that and the voice controls while streaming, I definitely would prefer a Kinect with my One. I know not everyone will utilize the Kinect though and feel that a Kinect free option may help sell some more systems due to the lower price point.

Kinect works for me as well. I'd love to keep it as long as they improve it more.
 
I guess it might work for me. Anyways I rarely use kinect for anything. Unless I'm really not into pressing any buttons. But I don't mind keeping it as well. I see that the tech has a lot of potential to grow.
 
Yeah, that's one of the things I use the most if I'm not really paying that much attention to my controller.
 
I use kinect a lot lately. Since I'm used to it I'd rather keep it. Anyways they plan on making Xbox One an all in one system, that just makes Kinect more valuable to keep.
 
Kinect is something that I can't leave without on my Xbox One. This is the absolute best tech that we have now. It shows a lot of promise and changes could be applied to it to better improve it.
 
Yeah, more things other than gaming can be done with kinect, just like the border guards are using it it korea.

I agree, to remove the kinect now... I dont think I could live without it haha. It makes navigating so much easier... turning on and off, etc... I cant wait for more features to come out for it to be honest. I dont even use my kinect for gaming.
 
if they get rid of kinect then it'll literally be xbox 720. Only thing different would be the blu ray player and the specs which really at that point it'd be smarter to just get a pc as the only thing you'd be losing is exclusives but you'd be gaining waaay better graphics as well as ability to mod.
 
wow i will be the first...

a kinectless xb1 works for me every day... my kinect never left the box since day 1.. my xb1 is in my room and the space is small and im 99% of the time laying down or in bed playing/watching tv/netflix such.

i have yet to use the voice commands or gestures or the tv tuner.. asi dont have a cable box in my room only antena.(why i want a time warner cable app)... basically i have a glorified 360 lol but i like it.

Wow, this alone has convinced me that the Kinect was meant to be bundled with the Xbox One. Well, we'll see how a Kinect-less Xbox One goes if it's ever revealed this year but still, hmmm.,.. convincing indeed.

Yeah I agree. this is really convincing.
 
I've gotten used to all the voice commands, but I suppose I could make do with out them. Really, that's the only thing I use the Kinect for.
 
Yeah, same here. well anyways the whole thing still has a lot of room to grow so we just have to bear with all the issues for now.
 
I'm not sure. On one hand I would have been happy without the Kinect (especially because the console would have been cheaper) and because I never planned to use the voice commands that much. But I've gotten used to it. Honestly if it wasn't for the occainsional times that I play Just Dance and the voice commands it would sit there unused. So yeah, in the end I'd be fine with no Kinect.
 
Well yeah, I use it too on just one game: Just Dance, other than that my wife loves it because it makes it easier for her to navigate.
