Why MS is keeping Kinect and didn't sell it for $350 - $400

That's fine.  I'm sure it will have issues--just not as much as Eyetoy, PS Eye, Live Vision, or Kinect 1.0.  I'm not getting a next gen console this year, anyway.  I'm happy with my PS3/360/Wii U (got it last year).  I just see what the potential appeal could be.  I'll wait until the software and reviews come but I'm fairly optimistic.  Microsoft is betting the farm on it so they must know something.

Technically speaking, the PSEye and the Move are supposed to be used in tandem for a complete experience. Even if the camera isn't as powerful the experience quality is higher than even Kinect 2.0 on an exponential level. Kudos to MS bigggggggg time on the marketing though. Sony doesn't give a damn about whether the Move is a commercial success.

Would you believe I have a Move and PSEye?  I agree with you.  It was pretty awesome--I used it alongside my Kinect and my Wii Motion Plus.  I think Wii had the best pointer, the Kinect had the best full body controls, and the Move had the best motion.  Wish Sony would have had more faith in it.  It's been gathering dust since Killzone 3.

I think a lot of people are pretty much done with the motion control trend but I still love it!  Hope the next gen version of motion controls is a success.
