It seems Microsoft has had a close eye and a closer ear to what the internet community of gamers has been saying about their new motion capture hardware. According to a highly-trusted source that resides within the Microsoft development team; the Kinect's manufacturing costs are said to be close to or at about $150.00. Whether this "trusted source" of information is true or not it seems Microsoft is catching wind of the negative feedback gamers are unleashing on the web about the expensive investment.
It almost seems as if Microsoft is attempting to justify the high price tag by assuring gamers that the company isn't out for a higher markup but rather taking a hit to provide a new experience to its gamers.
