    Good on MS for at least giving it a game. It would have been a horrible mistake for them to not bundle a game with it.

    That holiday bundle may save they ass.


    However, at $150 I still predict Kinect to be a failure.

    300 buckaroos? sheeet!

    MS should bit the bullet and release it for $250 like the original Wii, at $300 and with the current cheap-ass economy nobody is gonna buy this.

    Taking advantage of the huge userbase of the X360 with a less analraping price for kinect alone would be a better strategy.

    BTW is me or it seems like the bundle comes with no controller?

    $300 bucks for a console + this thing...and since it's some 8 GB model, you practically need a hard drive too, so that's what, $50 extra?

    4GB.

    It also seems the 4GB is internal flash, So you can install an HDD but the problem is, It looks like MS won't be selling the HDD at launch, so you'll have to go with a USB drive/flash.

    -edit-
    Another huge blunder for MS. It seems 1st party Kinect only games will be $50. 1st party Move only games will be $40 from sony.

    £130 is there abouts what I expected. I'm happy that it at least includes Kinect Adventures for that price.

    As for the new Arcade, I really thought it would be white, not completely matte black.

    Hey Guys & Girls, MS want's to show you the bang up deal you're getting. You'll save soo much with them vs the competition...

    So what if you already own a system? Well here is the cost for you!!

    See, even if you already own a Wii. It will cost you sooo much more to add a second player. More so then buying a Kinect.

    :lol::lol::lol:

    It does kinda make sense to promote the fact that you only need one of these things for multiplayer. But you know what makes even more sense? Buying a second controller instead and playing better games than this waggle bullshit.

    You don't like Kinect - we get it, already.

    (We're all going to be quite annoyed if Kinect/Move end up being hits.... :lol:)

    Not me, I was looking forward to kinect beating the wii and sending nintendo back to the drawing board instead of making yet another remake of the same ol' game.

    But right now all bets are against that.
