XB1 S is a Better Value than a $400 PC

[JEMC]

If you are only interested in gaming, maybe (just maybe) an XboxOne is better value, in the short term.

But, why are you comparing a PC from today to an XboxOne S from the future? By next year, AMD will have an APU that's as powerful as the xboxOne, making the PC just as fast as the console, for about the same price, with free online and capable of playing not only MSoft games but also games from Steam, Origin, U-Play, GOG, etc. And on top of that, you'll be able to add a graphics card in a couple of years to improve its capabilities into something like the Scorpio, something that you won't be able to do with the console.

Value is a very subjective term.
