No cover is a bad move. The majority of the community want this, and it doesn't add any advantage/disadvantage, so why not add it? It works great in GoW and RB6V. Cover has essentially become a must have feature in todays shooter games.

Thanks for the review. I may have to look into getting a set.
I'm kind of biased since I am the one that did the interview. I can say this: after conducting this interview with Michael Klucher, I am confident that Microsoft has their stuff together. They just "get it". They are very aware of what it will take to make XNA a real conduit for developers, and they are acting on it. It's great to see Microsoft working so hard to give developers the tools to make game development easier. In the long run, I can see this really open the doors for some...
