What the hell are you talking about? Trying to get people to buy your console is a bad thing these days? I guess you just want MS to roll over and let the Xbox die, smh. 

No, but this does devalue the console, don't you think? I mean, the price has been dropping so fast.


Devaluing a console during the Holidays? Everything gets "devalued" during Holidays. Patcher probably just knows MS's Black Friday deal.



Won bet with t3mporary_126 - I correctly predicted that the Wii U's LTD at the end of 2014 would be closer to 9 million than 10 million. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=6673287

Microsoft: "Thanks Pachter for telling people to not buy XB1s now!"


Not only that

Sony: Thanks for nothing Patcher...  Showing loyalty to MS by not telling us about the promotion, while at the same time blowing our cover by telling everybody we tried to spy on the promotion.

Hopefully a Masterchief collection bundle for $399.

Patcher on the MS PR payroll today?

If he is he's doing more harm than good by telling potential buyers to not buy an Xbox One.

Maybe they're just going to start giving them away for free.

Price cut?



S.T.A.G.E. on 15 September 2014

MS is going to cut price and take a loss. I'm calling it now. $349.99 sku for the holiday season. Master Chief Collection bundle for $399.99 USD.

Lol NO! Wait for Wii U Smash bundle or something, or buy one early

Pachter is definitely biased to Microsoft. He always has been. Of course he's given Sony credit where credit is due, but he is generally more in talks with MS.
