Gamespot: Sony cut PS Eye from PS4 to beat Xbox One price

[Hynad]

It's a smart move.... But I will hope they will include it with every PS4 when the time will come for a first price drop.

Include it with the system, instead of dropping the price.

I don't really care about motion gaming. It's good for some titles, but most of the games I play do very good without it. But the camera would share the very same fate as the PS Eye if they don't plan on bundling it with every PS4 down the road.

It's ok for them to drop it from the launch package, because most people who will buy the system at launch are hardcore fans who will most likely get the camera down the road if the games warrant the purchase. But for the common folks, if they adopt early... I don't know, I understand the point in bundling Kinect with every console, since it allows the developers to include features that take advantage of it, not having to care about whether or not people will have what is needed to use such features or not...

The PS4, by not including the camera at launch, takes the risks of having its camera being left to the oubliettes just like the PS Eye was this gen...

Of course, they could do like this gen and create a premium bundle... But it just won't be the same as if the camera had been bundled with every single console.
