Why is the Xbox One priced higher than the PS4?

You people are saying that a piece of hardware has a fixed cost for both companies and that should determine what the final cost should be. This is wrong...

- We don't know what kind of cost the software development had for both consoles
- Microsoft is making their cloud services available to everyone for FREE. This costs money
- all the cable features that come with Xbox one probably cost more

And then you have things like bundled kinect, possibly a pack in game...who knows.

Don't you need Live for that?

Im talking about developers. If youre making a game for Xbox One you have access to Microsofts cloud services for free. With Sony you have to provide your own servers or talk to sony to have them subsidize the cost.
