Greenberg: Kinect better value than PlayStation Move

July 20th, 2010, 22:57 Posted By: wraggster

Microsoft product director for Xbox Aaron Greenberg has claimed that Microsoft's Kinect - which has just been given a hefty £130 pricetag - is better value for consumers than Sony's Move peripheral.

Sony announced pricing for Move earlier in the year. It will cost £34.99 for the standalone controller, whilst a PlayStation Move Pack - which includes a PlayStation Move controller, the PlayStation Eye camera and the starter disk which includes the games Beat the Sketcher, Blocks and Echochrome 2 - will set you back £49.99.

The PlayStation Eye camera on its own costs £24.99 and the PlayStation sub-controller on its own will cost £24.99.

"Relative to the competition, we feel like we're in a very envious position," Greenberg told Destructoid.

"If you think about the console bundle as a standalone, what you have to keep in mind is, when you get the console and the sensor and the game, when you add another player to that experience you don't have to buy another wand, another controller, another Nunchuk... It's all included in the experience."
