Yea that sucks they should proly sell it for 399 euros 499$....since euros are worth more but I'm really talking about U.S gamers because 500dollars isn't much at all. And you getting 10 years out of it...and price will drop just wait

Everybody can buy one specially with Obama in office all the poor people can use there handouts to get an xbone . I'll buy food stamps 25 cents on the dollar if anyone needs yo save up.

Bad economy or not people are going to continue to buy. 100$ more isn't Mich to ask from brand loyalty and it is a good value great gaming and all the other stuff I do on my TV pliss more in one box its a game changer. Did ps4 finally show its product?

What does any of that have to do with a fedora? And PC gaming is the only gaming were steady professional esports can take place because the majority of games played prof don't release new version every year. Don't get me wrong I love my Xbox and ps3 and play console games but my computer will always look spectacular compared to any console. That's why PC gamers "oversimplify" because console gamers have one option to buy xbone or ps4 PC gamers have about 15 decisions tied to 1000 diff options on what gfx or CPU or motherboard they need to run games at full spec. Its really not oversimplifying the question. BC the question is simple and so is the answer

Um PlayStation 3 was suppose to have better CPU and ram and all that and it was garbage. Thing I hate about gamers is they complain so much its ridiculous. So what 8 years ago Xbox 360 launched at 400$ people are complaining about 500$ (with a kinect) have you heard of inflation. 500$ is not much money if you know have a job, if you can't shell out 500$ for something that is going to entertain you and hold up for 10yr life span then you don't deserve one. I mean seriously the this Xbox can do so much and everyone complains about used games...if developers didn't have to spend money on sending discs to distributors and them selling them they could sell new games just like they do on PC for waaaay much cheaper because that variable cost is gone. But they got rid of that possibility with removing always online which sucks who doesnt have an internet connection? Also I paid 500$ for the graphics cards in my computer. Regardless of all the complaining people are going to line up and buy.
