It's $130, how expensive did you expect it to be?

Yeah, you gotta buy the other control too, on top of the bundle.

Kinect is a better deal overall cause you only have to buy it once. Move is like the Wii where you have to buy additional remotes and nunchucks (forget what it's called for move). Can get pricey quick.

I don't know if Kinect will have the type of games I want to play though...great for parties and whatnot, but i haven't seen much past the "wii sports" type experience so far.

Oh, I thought it was $40 or $50 or whatever. Screw it then, I'm not getting this.

(accessory hardware doesn't reduce in price often, either)

I didn't realize either that the second controller was not included in the $99 bundle. Talk about being expensive if you don't have the camera. Then if you need more controllers for others to play, you are spending money like the Wii to get more for your family/friends.

The Move controller by itself is $49.95 and the package with a game pack-in is $99.95.

Wow, that's like saying a calculator is the same as a PC. True in basic theory but so wrong in application..

That's missing the $30 nunchuck, making it $130

Yes, but I'd skip on the game and I already have the Eye. Does that make it $80 for me?

Still too expensive though. I'll pass.
