Bargin bin ... dear lord. $400 to $350 a year after launch is not bargin bin, and I hardly see this hurting MS/XB1 ...

They're devaluing their product by doing constant price cuts and free game giveaways.

A product that is popular and selling well doesn't have price cuts and free game promotions every month. It doesn't need them.

BTW, the Xbox One launched at $500, not $400.

New sku minus kinect, not price cut. Big difference. If I was in the market for an XB1 today I would have to pay $450, that's only $50 less than what I got it at launch. (Because I would want Kinect model).

They're not devaluing, they're becoming competitive. And they're doing it to beat PS4, not because it's selling badly (not that I think it's selling fantastically either).

Some incredible reaching going on in this thread.

So the logic here then, is if they remove something, then it isn't a price-cut?

So when sony did the ps3 redesign and took out a bunch of stuff like backwards compatibility, that wasn't a price-cut? I'm trying to think now if ps3 ever had a price-cut now.


u should compare to the x360 core, arcade, pro and elite version

if u got a 349 bucks 250gb elite version
release a 199 bucks 8gb arcade edition and cut the elite to 299

do u have a 150 bucks pricecut?

Short answer is no.


Good to know, PS3 did not have any price cuts. Bought mine for 399 euro without ps2 compatiliblty in 2008. We only had one version.
