This sounds powerful ... And potentially expensive.

Around 800$ if you're buying PC with similar specs right now (7870 as GPU) - than again, it's not PC, they have massive discounts from manufecturer and it won't be out for at least another year - all considering, I'd guess  199$-249$ + 14.99$ per month for 2 years, with Xbox Live included. Maybe even less if they are willing to loose money initially like with 360.

I'm not sure whether it is an awesome plan, or the most stupid one.

Just because it works for phones, doesn't imply it will work for home consoles.

Well, considering they are testing this approach with 360, I'd say it's very plausible they gonna have some sort of subscription based offer in addition to regular model. Will it work...don't know, it just might - people just love when they see low prices on expansive stuff, deliberatelly pretending there's no hidden costs. ;)
