Next-Generation Xbox will make Kinect mandatory according to reports
Every console will be coming with a Kinect, although it will be a much more advanced version of the Kinect, right out of the box.
The new Kinect will apparently be capable of tracking up to six people at the same time, and can track smaller things such as hands and fingers, facial recognition, and even facial expressions.
According to reports, the next-gen console will also have multi-tasking capabilities, including the ability to run more than one game at a time. Another feature could be one that allows you to "suspend" a game, meaning you can switch to another game and then back without losing your exit point in either.
Also, reports say that unlike the Xbox 360, all Durango consoles will come with a 500GB internal hard drive. Also, full disc games will require mandatory installation on the first boot-up, but the installation can be done in the background while you are playing the game.
Recently, reports from Edge have come out that the new Xbox will require an always-on internet connection, which will allow Microsoft to detect and block the people from playing used games.

Zwrq My bad, I meant to say how I think they'll be poor quality like the original Kinect.
I don't agree with the whole motion sensor thing at all haha

MTVCenturial Never used kinect.
I did. It was fun with a few things, It was kind of scary when you're downstairs alone and the Kinect all of a sudden moves.
The only reason I would end up buying a kinect is if it came in a bundle or just to test out those fun games like kinect sports, I don't even know if they are fun but whatever... :P

ZwrqME0WZwrq I really hope its just an option, like the Kinect...
It's pointless to make it mandatory imo.
They might though... :/
I don't care if they do end up making it mandatory, as long as it's included with no extra price charge.
