And this is one of the games they were giving away with it:

I'd say that's beyond desparate and entering the realms of stupidity. There's going to be a huge crash in XB1s sales come Q1 of next year. This is why the PS4pro is actually one of the smartest moves Sony has made in recent history. While MS are trying to devalue current gen consoles, Sony has infused the market with value and enabled them to keep a decent top line.
People make me laugh when they go on about Sony not having AAA games for Christmas. This year they're relying on hardware and AAA multiplat deals to carry the torch while similtaniously giving them selves a huge arsenal of AAA first party games and console exclusives to kick Q1 off. Couple that with the slowing down of XB1s sales as we get closer to the Scorpios release and we could be looking at one of the biggest slumps we've seen in years. And here's a prediction: Christmas 2017 WILL release a AAA first party exclusive or two, and we'll see a $50 price cut across the board. It could be more but only if Sony decide it's necessary.
The PS5 Exists.
