Microsoft wont reward early adopters following kinectless console

Mark Sherwood · May 16, 2014

See the lucky thing for me is, I pretty much only have the big games (as apposed to the arcade like games) so chances are that the free games will mostly be ones I don't own anyway. I'm pretty excited for it

^^ yeah me too, my only concern is this will likely prevent sales as alot of people who would normally of bought a game may decide not to just in case its offered for free at a later date

I support all of you, I'm not kinects biggest fan, and I'm not expecting anything for my day one buy, would I have preferred a kinectless unit with a game and controller ? Yes, but I knew what I was getting, I'm happy enough to get the new console for the
children and give them the kinect I have, or swap machines if that won't be possible, but I can't see the kinect being tied to the console.

So they shouldn't. I get enough rewards from them for committing to the service. The rewards program, cheap deals, free games ect.. I am happy they are being stern on that front.

Yup me to, I am worried some of the changes will upset what they have build, but also looking forward to the future, bring on E3 already.

I have always really struggled to understand the rewards program.

It never seems to tally up for me and I've no idea if I've ever managed to get a reward payment as when I check the statement what I'm told to look for to check does not appear on the statement.

I'm not happy that MS are being stern but I don't really care. I'd much rather have something for free than pay for it. Luckily I have my Day One Edition XBox Gold Live running all the way until 2015 so looking forward to getting some Free games with games
after the first couple of months as I'll have those games already.

I knew it wouldn't be too long before the old rusty blimp made a comment ;-p
