This is another way of doing business.
It's a lot easier on the wallet - and eyes - to pay 35$ a month than 400 to 500$ for a console with a game or two.
Actually, this reminds me of a time where the representative of Nintendo, during the GC era, decided to sell a pack of 4 games and offer the console.
So yeah, it's a bit of how people accept this kinda model and marketing, too.
It's tough for MS to compete in prices with Sony, but this kind of practice does seem to change things in MS's favour.
