Microsoft will reintroduce the Xbox One in a live press event that is intended as a fresh start in their relationship with the media and consumers. They will directly address the concerns about the Xbox One and start generating positive momentum in time for the November launch.

 

According to an inside source after the E3 conference there was a massive and frantic internal review of every aspect of the Xbox One compared to Sonys direction with PlayStation.

The 24 hour check-in and disc-DRM policy was reversed to prevent the negative press becoming so widespread that it damaged the Xbox brand. Every other criticism has also been examined to see if it can be improved. Multiple changes have been made and Microsoft feel confident in a product they know the public will respond well to.

There have been discussions about creating price parity between Xbox One and PlayStation 4 by reducing the Xbox One price to $399/399. Conversation has centred on bigger losses per unit sold versus loss of sales traction.

Microsoft will make public their plans for Gamescom later this week. Its expected they will be hosting a press event presented by Phil Spencer, the vice president of Microsoft Game Studios and Phil Harrison, the corporate vice president of Interactive Entertainment.

Price it at 400$ and either remove the Camera or keep it, either way that would really sell people on it, and perhaps even myself.

Gotta give them credit for making the effort, unlike Sony who just sat on the PS3 trainwreck at launch and did nothing

Yep. I am a White slaver and Arms dealer. There is no way i've letting a NSA bug into my Villa by choice.

 

They will never just give the Kinect bit away for free you will always pay for it. If they remove it they can charge less. I've used the first kinect and it was really bad.

they are never losing the Kinect, this Kinect is 10 x's more powerful than the original Kinect.    SO one one hand you are so nervous that it will spy on you and be a NSA trojan horse, and on the other hand you bring up up the original Kinect and say it was really bad??   ok well they arent losing it, so good luck on the PS4.

yea because it's not exactly the same as the policies they had on the 360 or anything like that. the ps4 came with these brand new ideas that has never been done before. ever. :lol:

lies. if they drop the price to $400 you'll get it with or without kinect

most likely you will get it with Kinect, its intergrated into the system.     Wow if its 400 dollars at launch with the Kinect.   I think Sony would be in trouble then.

If they change the price to $400, I'm buying one. The problem is, they won't drop the price this early, so I'm not buying one.

Its still inferior hardware and the eSRAM will be a problem for lazy 3rd party devs (A problem in the meaning that they wont bother going far into optimizations).

bit of a reach there.   current 360 has edram and wiiu has esram, it might not be as easy as the ps4, but its easy enough.
