It's you who are comparing a PC with the XboxOne S that won't launch until next year. I'm just using your comparison.

$60 will give you lots of games on PC too, you just have to take advantage of the sales that PC gamers enjoy several times each year (in the last 12 months Steam has had 4: Halloween, Winter, Chinesse new year and Summer. GOG has had almost the same).

Xbox One S will have many more years of support... just like the original XboxOne. Don't take PR statements as a fact or an absolute truth. And your "upgrade" to Scorpio consists of buying the new console at whatever it costs. With a PC, you'll only have to buy a graphics card.

The Xbox One S launches next month.

Console have weekly sales and the occasional big summer, winter, spring, fall sales. 

Ok, I didn't know that the S launched so soon.

And how big of a discount do the games use to get? Right now at Steam you can get a 40% off of the new Doom and GTA V, and a 50% off of The Witcher 3. Sure, you won't be able to get those three games for $60, neither on PC nor console, but there are thousands of other games, new and old, that you can get.
