I didn't realize the Xbone comes with a year of XBLG. When you consider that PS4 now requires PS+ for online play, that's a $60 value and makes the price difference $40.

A year? Here is 14 days.

In the press release it says 14 days but that early adopters can also get a 12 month subscription. So I guess the free year applies to first run buyers and the 14 day trial probably comes with every console.

I think you only get a year of XBLG only if you preorder it.

Ohhhh makes sense... thanks.
The 12 months of XBLG for pre-orders takes a bit of the sting off although it is FAR from saying the cost is now only $440. Adding things to SKUs is not the same as reducing the price.
Not sure why more aren't pointing this out, but that $100 difference in price basically boils down to the required Kinect 2.0 in every box.

Xbox One is region locked, so good luck with that. |
Already stated that I'm immigrating to Hong Kong, which only gets imported games. Not only that, but I'll probably go digital only.

But maybe Ms is breaking even or making a small profit on every unit. after all, they did nothing but take big losses on the whole xbox family, they NEED the imediate profit.
