um actually the 300 dollar subscription model is better than the 500 model...basically looks like you adds up to 540 vs 500 and Xbox live is 60 yearly which would be 120+500 vs 300+240 no way i believe Microsoft would do this

They have a $99 360 subscription plan right now that works out the same way, it's basically $40-50 more expensive than retail.

Which is massively cheap compared to what you'd normally pay in mark-up for these contract type deals.

Yes but that's $40-50 more expensive on top of xbox live. That one is 99 + 14.99 a month for 2 years = $458.76 which is $338.76 if you take off live at $60 a year.
That $300 one comes to $420 after 2 years if you take off live. So maybe a basic model?
