| fallen said: That's it. Xbox One could drop to 399 or even 349 provided they're willing to drop Kinect, which I'm betting MS suits are getting ready to do right now (probably at E3 orf course) in view of weak sales.
So lets say a $349, no Kinect, Xbox One existed. The question is, could it outsell PS4? Just in North America/UK or worldwide? Or is the most powerful hardware impossible to overcome? Would people still prefer the $399 PS4 for more 1080P games?
I think that's the question MS has to be scared of, if the answer is no. Then, like Wii U, they truly are trapped. |
I really doubt MS will drop Kinect. As many here have stated, its part of their value proposition and something that PS4 doesnt have. I think 399 with no game is a good price for MS to remain competitive. 450 bundled.
This way the price is the same. PS4 has its advantages (power), Xbox has its advantages (integration, multitasking). You take away Kinect and Xbox loses that.
The million dollar question is MS willing to sell xbox one as is for 400. I'm sure they will be losing money at that point.
