The standalone ONE for $349, also representing a $50 cut if we price Kinect at $100. So this is an extra $50 on top of the $50 for Black Friday Do we have to keep getting this nonsesne in every thread on the subject of sales?

Entry price of XBone Nov 2013: $500
Entry price of XBone Nov 2014: $300
It's that simple. You can go into excessive detail regarding Kinect bundling and so forth, but the bottom line is that a year ago, in order to get an XBone, you had to spend $200 more than what it takes to get your hands on one now, and that's the only thing consumers care about.
Otherwise, PS3 didn't drop price for like 2 years because of "different SKUs" (as opposed to the universally accepted "it dropped $200 in 1 year" even though the 40GB was a "new SKU")
