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

Because Sony doesn't have as much leeway when it comes to taking a loss on each console.

There will probably still be a $499 bundle that includes the Eye, a Move controller and a game.

Excellent decision, don't want a useless accessory I'd never want to use to drive the price up

The original SKU, if true, had to have included more than just the camera if it was going to be $500. Gotta love "sources".

They will needs a lot more than a PS Eye to make a $499 bundle... maybe one addictional Dual Shock 4 (two in total) + PS Move + 1TB HDD.

I mean the PS Eye don't add $30 to the console costs.

Greatly devalues the PS Eye for the entire Gen. If the main penalty for including it is only price parity with one of your competitors, not sure if that is worth it. Feels more like a lack of confidence in it's worth.

Is that so?

I think a good portion of multiplatform titles will have Kinect features, most of which should be available to PS4 Eye owners aswell. And most first party titles will make sure to include some Eye functionality anyway, so in my opinion there could be quite a lot of PS4Eye support due to the Kinect.

Great, I don't want to pay an extra 100$ for a camera I don't want.
