Microsoft Kinect for Xbox 360 Pricing Officially Announced …

It has finally been settled. After a lot of speculation Microsoft has officially announced pricing for the new hands free controller for your Xbox 360.

The Kinect for Xbox 360 will retail for $149.99 as a stand alone product and according to Microsoft it will work on every Xbox 360 console that is already in homes across the world so no issues with compatability.

Microsoft also used the same press release to announce a new Xbox 360 bundle that will allow consumers to get the redesigned Xbox 360 4GB model along with the Kinect for Xbox 360 hands free controller and one of the Kinect specific games called Kinect Adventures. this bundle will retail for $299.

Starting today, consumers can pre-order Kinect for Xbox 360 and the Xbox 360 Kinect Console Bundle at most major retailers. Josh Hutto, director of product marketing for Xbox, said that Kinect represents a great value for new and existing Xbox 360 customers.

The press release also mentions the Kinect Experience Tour which we wrote about a few days ago.

There was one other tidbit to be extracted from this press release and that is the price of some of the other games Microsoft has developed for the Kinect for Xbox 360:

Additional games, including “Kinectimals,” “Kinect Sports,” and “Kinect JoyRide,” will retail for US$49 each.

That is $10 less than other pre-release prices I have seen on those games and the typical initial release price of $59.99.

So which is it? are you adding a Kinect for Xbox 360 to your Xbox 360, buying the bundle or keeping a wireless controller in your hands?

Update: It seems I missed the fact that the Kinect Adventures game will also be sold with the Kinect for Xbox 360 as a bundle for $149. With the retail price of the Microsoft Kinect games at $49 that puts the controller at a cost of just $100. I think that makes it a pretty decent deal. I was planning to buy before but this makes it an even better purchase.

Rory Mcilroy Girlfriend – Who Is rory mcilroy girlfriend

Despite his tender years, Rory McIlroy is of course comfortable in the media spotlight.

But it’s unlikely this the same can be said for his girlfriend of two years, Holly Sweeney.

The relatively 16-year-old prefers to stay in the background additonally her now-famous boyfriend faces the world’s press.

“Holly is fairly shy,” admitted Rory.

“This is the earliest time she has carried on in the media spotlight and she has handled herself in essence well, but I am certain she doesn’t wish to turn to a average girlfriend of a sports person, so she likes to take a coming back seat.”

He added: “There is obviously a lot of care now and we don’t would like to turn to a typical Posh and Becks-type couple. We just now want to lie under the radar.”

Holly and Rory – a former pupil of Upper Sullivan School, where Holly is bringing about A-Levels – met, possibly unsurprisingly, at Holywood Golf Club, in August 2005.

“I didn’t really understand her at school,” recalled Rory.

“She just came up with friends. I got to appreciated her here and that’s how we met.”

But although Holly can own her own with a set of clubs, she prefers to leave the hard administered on the purple to the man who caused this kind of a sensation at the 136th Open Championship last week.

“I bid her to the driving range pretty a bit, but she takes a returning seat to the whole golf thing,” he said.

“She’s essentially supportive of me and she’s remarkably proud, but she just plays golf when she feel like it. It’s not something she especially wants to do.
