Pretty sure that died away when people realized you can't actually get a good workout through a video game. Just turn on p90x instead.

Also, who gives a shit if Kinet is more accurate and can read my heart. Why would I want to controll a game with my body instead of a controller again?
Can't get a good workout through a video game ... turn on a non interactive video ......

Yup that was just said. The thing isn't you can't get a good workout through a video game it's that all the attachments and stuff for the console to work with you on it is subpar at best. Attachments to monitor heart rates that aren't wireless and controllers you have to hold.

What if they harnessed the new 1080p Kinect and made a P90X interactive video? Would your mind be blown then along with your new and awesome physique?

I almost guarantee you that Comcast will find a way to block that shit, it will cut into their box sales/rentals.
I'd think Comcast will be ok with it - they WAAAAAAY overcharge for cablecards which you need to translate the cable signal for other boxes. $3/card for the same card on FiOS now that I was paying $10/mo for on Comcast. (Plus MS/Comcast were in bed with each other until recently)

The guy on stage doing the demo specifically said he was using Comcast, lol. They also had a DirectTV logo in one of the Wired videos. I don't think there are going to be any provider issues.

As long as you live in theUnited Statesand have either Comcast or DirectTV. I'm sure you're fucked if you use anyone but them and maybe Verizon. Though I haven't had TV in forever, can you even get it from anyone but the super big guys anymore? It's also confirmed that it's pretty much US only right now (which is basically a massive provider issue).

Assuming a normal CableCard style decoder setup - UVerse, Dish, and a few others aren't in the game - only FiOS/Comcast/DirectTV can cablecard to my knowledge.

ITT: Americans getting butt hurt that a system is going to work perfectly for them, and acting like they give a fuck about anyone else.

You know what would make an Xbox One a day one buy for me? Programmable Illumiroom. Did they talk about that?
