I find it funny to see articles titled "Sony losing money while Xone is becoming more powerful" as if the unbundling of the Kinect will make the system that much more powerful. These articles are really trying to spin it like Sony is going down the drain meanwhile the Xone will become the dominant system in terms of capabilities. Or that the two things have any real relevance to each other.
Famousmortimer pointed this out. Are we going to pretend that Microsoft hadn't already reduced the dedicated CPU power to the Kinect from 10% down to 2%? So what now? Anyone who doesn't have a Kinect plugged in gets 2% more CPU juice? Cool. Story. Bro.
