I was originally going to hold out but the main game I was getting it for, Dead Rising 3, was having huge frame rate problems this close to launch so I would rather wait and see instead of betting that everything will be fixed on day 1.



Also that Kinect having to be plugged in for the system to work creeped me out. I know it will likely not be a big deal but I still haven't heard a good reason why it needs to be plugged in for the system to work.

Will likely get it eventually but don't think I can justify a day 1 purchase. Ironically enough i think this video was the initial turning point that got me thinking about cancelling my preorder.

Fwiw, Dead Rising 2 had some insanely stupid bugs earlier this year on the 360. You had to limit the way in which you completed some tasks so as not to crash the game. Makes me wonder if the problem might lie more with the dev than the mfr in this case.
