Why would you stop posting here if that's what you're trying to accomplish?
the kinect one will also monitor your heart, if your heart rate rises too much the xbox one will assume you're having too much fun and it will lock it self down for 48 hours, thus preventing a fun overload

in other news all horror games are banned from xbox one
I think Microsoft is trying to make the video game console equivalent of Springtime for Hitler.
[QUOTE=Rockeiro123;40794945]I'm pretty damn sure most laptop's webcams don't have facial recognition software, or can detect your pulse, or can count how many people are in the room.[/QUOTE]
Maybe the Kinect has the same issue as valve:
There are 1....2.... and I forgot the other but there are more than 2 in the room
I'm actually surprised that a device that watches you and listens to you 24/7 will get sold without much legal trouble.

IIRC Germany is one of the bigger video gaming markets. Baning the Xbox One, while probably not dramatic, will make a blow to the profits.

Well, it's not just the German market that'll suffer from it. Everywhere else, people'll be like "Hey, I heard the xbone was banned in Germany, how come?" "Oh, it watches you masturbate." "Well hot damn, better not buy it!"
Any device which has remotely to do with surveillance is instantly disliked by everyone, nobody wants something that watches you or study you. I am usually a guy who is defending consoles but this is just unacceptable.

Oh, they want to put the "gamer" in control. Guess they don't care about all the people who want to watch subscription TV on the Xbox since they don't want to put the TV watcher in control. God dammit microsoft I hate you so much.
I'm no console gamer by any means, but I think Microsoft has stepped completely over the line here. I mean what's next, Windows only working on PCs with a camera?
Why is your console holding you under 24/7 surveillance opt-out instead of opt-in?
because big MS is watching over us ALL
