JTaylor69 Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 I have seen a lot of discussion on some gaming blogs that the price of Kinect is way too much for them. So the question is, how much would you say Kinect is worth to you? I'll get the ball rolling and say that a good price is ?100, considering what it does :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/911920-whats-kinect-worth-to-you/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViperAFK Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 It's worth two things to me... 1. Diddly 2. Squat Pretty much this for me. I really don't like this motion controller fad at all. They use it as a gimmic instead of using it to actually improve gameplay in any way.

Spookie Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 I've said it before ?50-70. I'll use it to navigate the dash and watch movies. The price of the games can **** off too- ?35 for a glorified XBLA game? Ha!

SimplySchizo Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 $49.99 at most and $19-29 for its games. not a penny more. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/911920-whats-kinect-worth-to-you/#findComment-592777544 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrunkenBeard Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 I'd say 75$, more would be too much, less would be cool but I'm ok with 75 :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/911920-whats-kinect-worth-to-you/#findComment-592777990 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJerman Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Not really a whole lot. Most real (as opposed to the more simple or arcade style) games will be too complex to use Kinect. I play NHL more than any other game, and there's no way you're going to get that to work with Kinect. It's a cool concept, and I'm sure there will be some fun games that are made with it in mind, but if the price is too much then I'm not getting it. I'd say $100 is the MOST they can get for it, $50 would be better. Past that and they aren't going to get as many sales. But hey, in the world of games with peripherals that cost $100 or more, maybe they CAN get away with a higher price. I won't buy it though.

Ji@nBing Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Absolute max would be $89.99, and even then there would have to be a game I REALLY want for me to spend that much. If it was $50 or something, I'd probably just get it to play around with.

Ayepecks Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Entirely depends on the games. If there is a good amount of GOOD games for it, I'd pay around $125, max. I'd like it to be between $80-$100, but I think we all know it's not going to cost $50 or less. Hell, the Move costs $120-$150 or so when you add all the components up. I can't see myself paying the rumored $185. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/911920-whats-kinect-worth-to-you/#findComment-592778076 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudy Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 I think I'm going to have to pass on Kinect..for some reason I don't think the game support is going to be there Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/911920-whats-kinect-worth-to-you/#findComment-592778146 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoredBozirini Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 no because then it will be as crappy as Ubuntu OS. Its already crappier than Ubuntu OS, so Microsoft should pay me for me to use Kinetic.

Smigit Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 I'd pay the asking price (I only need one so its cheaper than me decking out my PS3 or Wii with remotes). Problem is not one piece of software for it yet has interested me.
