I only need one reason: Daily DRM checking. I won't buy a console that doesn't allow me to play my games offline forever. I will never support a console that does such a stupid thing. I shouldn't have to have internet connected to the console once per day every 24 hours to check if my single player games are legit. Period. Huge deal-breaker for me. Also the Kinect being required especially if the console won't work unless you have the kinect camera facing you.
