yeah! you CAN buy battery packs, but here in Canada the controllers cost 80 bucks PLUS the 20-30 for the battery pack...

PS4 controllers cost 75 and no battery pack

Switch Pro controllers cost 90, also no need for batteries. 

So in other words.. because of $20 I wont by a Xbox. Gotcha.

Its a one time purchase and I am still using my battery pack since launch.

Are you being dense on purpose? That's not the ONLY reason, it's one of many. No games, what games it does have are on other systems, UI is not appealing,  it tanks my internet every time I use it, the network seems shoddy as hell for wi-fi, AND the controllers need batteries or battery packs. 

They need to get with the times. PS4 controllers have battery packs already in them, as do PS3 controllers, WiiU controllers, and Switch controllers. The fact that Microsoft still either requires AA batteries or a 30 dollar battery pack is laughable to me, and sort of the cherry on the cake. 

Don't try to misrepresent my points to make my argument look absurd. That's called a strawman fallacy.
