Wow,Kinect 2 is so expensive! MS would be smart to sell the Xbox One without the Kinect so they could undercut the PS4 by $200 - $250.


they are probably taking a lose at it as it is. i really doubt the X1 would cost around 260 to manufacture, if so, then sony is making quite the profit on the PS4. so even if they dont include kinect they wouldnt be able to undercut the PS4 by 250$ or 200$ for that matter. (releasing it for 149$?! thats cheaper than a 360!)

Yeah true. hmm, I don't trust this, cause its extremely hard to believe the Kinect 2 costs as much as the Xbox One to produce.

With a $499 price, I think MS are either breaking even or making a small profit. 


did you see titanfall the kinect 2.0 tech? its REALLY impressive and advanced. im searching for 3d depth camera costs and i actually came across and article from 2010 about 3d depth cameras (that mentions the kinect1)  and the costs of some 3D depth cameras there are 12 thousand! but more realistcally i found a site called "softkinect" they sell depth cameras that are more like the kinect, one for 299$ and the other for 249$. they of course profite from them so that doesnt show production price, but the specs are much lower than those of kinect 2.0. coming to think about it, i wouldnt be surprised if the kincet2.0 actually costs more than the console to make

there also selling these camara's at a massive profit. so i don't see it costing more then 150-200, at most
