Motion controller BUNDLE will be under 100, and that is a game (60) and a pseye (20 maybe?) so the PS move would actually only be 20.

wow you're way off.

pseye is currently ~$30 and the game bundled in that full set for $100 (less than 100 is always 99) will be that sports game as it will be similar to the cheaper tech demo/games Wii has used to bundle its products.

This means the controller set by itself will probably be ~$60 or the same price as a Wiimote+nunchuk and the sports game will probably be $10-20 stand alone.

How am I way off? You are just speculating too, so you could be way off. The point is, no one knows it's price as of yet so people should stop complaining about it.

We know the PSeye is $40 new (list on amazon), so you are off there. There is no way they release a bluetooth controller for $20. The liscensing fees for Bluetooth alone would prevent that from happening. Odds are (with an educated guess) you are low on the controller, and high on the game. My bet is you save $20 by buying the combo. So something like (for list prices) $40 PSeye, $40-50 controller, $30-40 game.

Not really. You're prices for the baseline are actually wrong as well as your speculation doesn't hold up to logic.

They said the starter bundle would be 'less than $100' which we all know always means $99.99 or at best $89.99.

So, starting with the $100 bundle price and taking out the current cost of the PSEye which is $40 (or typically priced at $35). That leaves ~$65.

Considering a little logical price points and the fact that the game bundled will definitely be the demo game that is the sports game the Move as a set with a game will probably be $60 stand-alone OR $50 (considering a DualShock3 is $45) and $20 for the game by itself.

That would make the bundle an actual discounted bundle while still being competitive with all other controllers in the market.

$20 for the Move is "way off" and simply not logical.

And you're just assuming tons of stuff until you come up with numbers you like. That does not make them fact.

If they aren't going to support the Move wholeheartedly then their Move accessory can only be a halfhearted attempt. I don't understand how people think its a good thing. If a game concept has to be able to be done with a controller then that will limit the potential of what they can do with a game.

They are really stretching themselves in a few different directions between Move and their 3D push. I hope we don't see them falling flat on both due to dividied attentions.
