Read a comment regarding all the stuff above:

"This is Phil Spencer cleaning up Don Mattrick's mess."

Truer words could not have been spoken.

Really excited about all the changes. I'm not a fan of the removal of Kinect, but I'm a bigger proponent of them hitting $400 to compete with Sony, and if they had to drop Kinect to do that, then so be it. As long as I'm able to continue using my voice commands and whatever, it wont bother me too much.
