Even MORE expensive than the US version! And after the economy is so low..LOL..on top if that the LAG is terrible on this thing!..seriously LMAO microsoft.

£370 for a PS3 Slim and a full move setup.
£329 for a 250gb 360 and a kinect setup.
£249.99 for a 4GB 360 and a kinect setup.

Prices are still silly but they've done it. Both are going to look bad but pump out enough games for kids, women and drunken people and the price will matter.

read above post by threedog. its still cheaper then a move setup (although he says full, its full 1P setup).

lag is lag. anytime you introduce a camera to interpret movements there will be lag. this includes move.

Yep add £110 to the PS3 per player.. assuming you will play one wand, two wand and one wand + nav configs with a limit of two-four players depending on the configuration.

Microsoft better borrow some of that Apple Reality Distortion Dust to sell this puppy.

got to say "what a bunch of dicks ms are"

for f#cks sake i can buy a brand spanking new 120 gig elitew with 2 games from tesco for another £15.

Single player Move is cheaper than single player kinect
Three player Move is cheaper than three player kinect (since you'll need a second console and second kinect, and second copy of the game + 2 xbox live subscriptions to get them actually against each other)
Four plater Move is limited to what controller requirements there are, four player kinect has same problem as above.

Kinects only advantage is if you are playing with two people, and really like the idea of shovelware.

Those who don't look to the past are doomed to repeat it.

Mega CD and the 32x....both overpriced accessories with a lack of good games (except 1 or 2 e.g Sonic CD), sound familiar?

really?
1 move starter kit + 1 additional move controller + 1 nav controller = way more than kinect, a second player set adds almost the full price of a second kinect.

that said if my ps3 was useable (thanks sony) i'd still be far more interested in a mii2 set than a kinect simply because despite the mii2's shortcomings its closer to the usability of the wii m+ remote than kinect could ever be without additional handheld controllers.

moves only advantage is if you are playing with 4 players at $500+ and really lke the idea of wii port shovelware.

your comparison is mute.

ill go on the record and say it, kinect will outsell move.

err there is no 4 player on kinect only 2 player and move is limited to seven devices so if play requires 2 devices then 3 players is the maximum, only single controller games can be four player so your costs dont work out.

i'll go on the record and say wii will outsell both kinect and move combined.

it was already stated that kinect can support more then two players, it just wont have full blown body recognition.

No in the uk its £110 for move starter pack and navigation controller and extra move motion controller when kinct is £130. So move is cheaper going on your options.

And who says you need all that you may just need a motion controller and camera so the basic for me is £35 for motion controller and a game of course. Since ds3 can be the navigation controller its not correct until we see a trend of controller options for it to make such guesses. It might be like the few wii games that support motion plus and be an option to use the navigation or second motion controller.

That is correct in the EU the Kinect has a higher price over the single player bundle, The advantage on price with Kinect is a new buyer bundle with a console. USA prices on Move/Kinect on their own are flipped. Price depends on region here.

/Unrelated to quoted post.
I see people are going nuts about this to the extent of spouting unverified mis-truths and im rolling around laughing... All this has proven to me is that Move/Kinect both s*** and a waste of money and the people trying to appear neutral are certainly trying to defend things to the best of their ability today
