Recently Microsoft announced that they would be releasing an Xbox One bundle that would come without the Kinect included. This meant that the price of the console was knocked down to $399, putting it on par with the Sony PlayStation 4. This is good news for gamers who want to save money, but at the same time, what does this mean for Microsoft? Have they admitted defeat with the Kinect? Well thankfully that is far from the case, according to Microsoft’s Larry “Major Nelson” Hyrb, who recently took to Reddit to reassure gamers that the Kinect is alive and well and is still part of Microsoft’s vision.
