Kinect is “Great Value” says GAME

Despite the hefty £130 price tag, UK games retailer GAME has stated that Kinect is “great value”. Well, at least their on side with Microsoft eh?

After the price announcement by Microsoft, Martyn Gibbs (managing director of GAME Group UK) issued the following statement;

At E3 in June, we were lucky enough to play with Kinect and can say that it truly is ground-breaking technology.

Since then, we’ve been driving awareness of Kinect to our customers in-store and online. We know from their feedback that they are excited about getting their hands on it and what it could do to their gaming experience.
Whether they buy Kinect on its own or as part of the great value bundle, it is going to be on the Christmas lists of both core gamers and families.

This isn’t exactly a major surprise considering how big a retailer GAME is, but I’m not so sure I agree with them. What about you guys?
