The PS3 had gyro with its Sixaxis controller in 2006. Not sure what took Xbox 17 years.
Edit: After reading certain comments, it seems that The Verge could have misunderstood the use of the accelerometer. It appears to be for the “lift to wake” function rather than gyro.
Wow finally gyro support. That’s the biggest info nugget for me.
