The Xbox One and Kinect Divorce

Despite what UK marketing chief Harvey Eagle told us all in February about “[A Kinect-less Xbox One] is not in our plans at all,” and “As we’ve said from the very beginning, we believe Kinect is an absolutely integral part of the Xbox One experience.” We all knew this was coming.

With E3 on the horizon, it's time to celebrate being a gamer and we should all forget these fanboy wars, arguments and one-upmanships battles for a while. No matter what console you own, we can all unite in wanting E3 to be about the games.

However, in light of recent events, we fear the next few weeks may turn into more of a price war.

Would you say absolutely horrible hyperbole? :D

Halo 5?....pffft to each his own but Halo 5 is a great game, every Xbox owner I know enjoyed it, the campaign was nice I like the teamwork concept and the multiplayer keeps 'em coming back with great gameplay & modes so much content, 343 did a helluva job.

@4Show: Uh... going to assume that's a comment intended for someone else.

Not Halo 5. It had a bad story COMPARED to past games but it didn't have a bad story overall. The gameplay was top notch, and multiplayer is still one of the best on the market right now. Custom games browser is the single greatest thing 343 did which I'm grateful for.

ninsigma2545d ago

Nah it really was a bad campaign. MP was great but seriously, that was a hugely terrible story mode.

spicelicka2545d ago

The story maybe, but some of the missions were extremely fun. The Sangehlios ones are right up there with the best missions in the franchise.

Kingthrash3602545d ago

Halos mp was great but became boring quicker than most.
The story. Naw that was bad and it's marketing was a lie. Made it seem like old master chief was gunna fight that new fake master chief but the conflict ended up being a one punch cgi sequence.
Not to mention fighting the same boss over and over and over....plus add the no split screen mp and whala! You got the worst canon halo ever made

brich2332545d ago

Compared to Halo 4, Halo 5's story was trash and not memorable at all.

ninsigma2545d ago

That's not really saying much though cuz that was pretty bad as well.

ninsigma2545d ago

Agreed on sanghelios. That was one of the very few times it actually felt like halo.

Halo 5, FarCry 2, Dragon Age 2, Nuts and Bolts, and Gears of War: Judgement were all far from bad games. Hell, even Crackdown 2 was pretty fun.

There's a difference between a lesser sequel, and a bad game.

rlow12545d ago

With a Title that says "horrible sequels", most of these are far from that. Better title should be disappointing sequels. But I'm sure they went with the former to get clicks and bring in the fanboys.
