Title: Microsoft drops Kinect requirement for XBone

I can't say I'm surprised:

"Delivering more choices", more like "lack of sales"* (http://www.extremetech.com/computing/181337-microsoft-attempts-to-hide-anemic-xbox-one-sales-amid-lackluster-quarterly-earnings)

XBone is finally turning into the console most people wanted from the get go
-No always online requirement
-No required creepy Kinect

The question still stands on whether or not AAA titles will continue to remain below 60 fps at 720p (http://ca.ign.com/articles/2014/05/13/watch-dogs-is-not-1080p-or-60-frames-per-second-on-xbox-one-or-ps4)

With so many cross platform releases to PC, why not just buy a video card upgrade and enjoy actual HD at 60+ fps
