I don't know about Xbox One but Xbox 360 certainly had a fair amount of hidden costs if you were oblivious to them. Xbox Live, Hard Drive, batteries etc. Quite clever and they got away with. Also, never forget RROD. That was one of the major reasons I went for PS3 despite it being more expensive at the time. Before I got PS3, I had no idea how good, games like Resistance, Littlebigplanet or Uncharted were. I had never regreted going for PS3 ever since
Xbox One, PS4 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)
