*Customers will be able to pay around $22 per month and net themselves an Xbox One S, Xbox Live, and Xbox Game Pass for two years. Around $35 will net them an Xbox One X.

For those who don't want to take out their calculators, it's 528$ total for the ONE S + XBL + GamePass, and 840$ for an ONE X + XBL + GamePass.

In other words, buying them separately seems a better deal to me, especially for the ONE X or when there's some discount.

That's the catch with these types of business models. Buying a product on a plan will always cost you more in the long run. Much like buying a Phone on a Plan, EG - actual Phone is worth $800 but the deal adds up to more than $1200 over 2 years. (Depending on the plan you are with)

As for All Access, I can see where the market is, probably more focused on Uni/College students who cannot afford to outright pay $400+ on a console and add even more for the games. 

$35 a month for a X and 100s of games that will be free via GamePass doesn't sound like much money considering what you are getting, but MS will make there money in the long run by earning close to twice the amount on 1 console purchase over two years etc.
