It has been pretty much confirmed that Microsoft’s Kinect will be priced at $150. But what we didn’t know is that the games are going to sell for $60, and none come bundled with the hardware. This new Wal-Mart preorder bundle for the Kinect hardware, one game of your choice and a $30 online-only gift card for $199 also shows games like Kinect Adventures and Joyride listing for $60.
I’m guessing that is probably about twice as much as you expected. Floored us too. So you are expected to drop $210 for the hardware and a single game. That’s ridiculous. At least one game should come with it.
Craziness.

What the hell is in this thing, to make it that expensive. They probably worried that they wont see the profits over the long run if the take the hit on it now. like they did with the consul. Or they are already taking a hit but its so expensive to make they can’t take much more.
