Microsoft reveals $400 Xbox Kinect bundleDVDBack23 @ Sep 09, 2010 03:09 | 9 comments
The bundle will come with a 250GB slim Xbox 360 console, the Kinect motion control system and Kinect Adventures game for $399.99.
If purchased separately, the console would cost $300, the motion system would cost $150 and the game would cost $40, so the bundle does in fact offer a decent savings.
The bundle will be released in Europe on November 10th, and later in Japan on November 22nd.
You can pre-order the bundle now from Target, Amazon, GameStop and Best Buy.
"All you have to do is play [Kinect], or watch people play it," says Takashi Sensui, head of Microsoft's home and entertainment division in Japan. "It's nothing you've seen, and it's a brand new experience that I think a lot of people will be attracted to." |

Comment by: Jemborg (Sep 10, 2010 09:25) The Kinect is meant to be able to read sign language, apparently there's an app for it.
Its a lot easier being righteous than right.

Comment by: Kinect (Oct 04, 2010 04:27) lol, how do you play a game in sign language? Whatever the case, Kinect rocks. I've already pre-ordered the Xbox Kinect Bundle which has the best of everything, IMO anyway. |
