It is but considering the kinect bundle was the original SKU, it was never created to be a bundle so its not priced that way, it is a bad deal. $50 exra is a lot as well. Usually a bundle with an accessory wouldn't save you that much. Plus, as someone pointed out, the kinect does cost them less than $100 to make so they are selling this super high to get lots of profit. It seems they aren't bothered about sales of kinect too much

It just same as 360 Kinect price when it launched at 2010

So that was either a blatant lie or the X1 could be a lot cheaper.

Not for 360,since 2010

lol, $150 X1's for the holiday season!!!

I doubt it will sell well at that price.

sounds like a lot of money though they need to have it cost significantly more than $100 so that if people want it, they'd be more likely to buy the bundled one.

He probably meant the whole development, not just the actual construction of the finished product.

The timing is ideal as it leads well into the holiday season in the US and other countries, making the add-on an excellent gift for those who already own an Xbox One without the next-gen accessory.
Perfect if you like the look of disappointment on the receiver. They're going for $50 on Ebay, $70 buy it now.

Is anybody here gonna buy this? XD

I wonder what the breakdown is between Xbox Ones sold with and without Kinect has been since they have offered the SKU without Kinect. I am probably a minority but I love my Kinect for voice commands. I get kind of upset when an app doesn't support voice commands.
