Forums - Sales - Why is no one talking about the soft XB1 price drop

I doubt XBox fans want to be reminded of it being apparently outsold by the Wii U.

It's not a price drop, they've been giving away games since launch (FIFA 14 and 15, Forza, Titanfall, Sunset Overdrive...)

Actually, I am shocked they are charging a whole $100 more for a HDD upgrade, especially when XOne owners can upgrade it bigger and cheaper with external hard drives. Decals on the console sure are not worth that much.

Also, no Kinect bundles. Seems they are quietly discontinuing it. I think it will never go on sale standalone.

I think its the HDD and the fact that its a customized limited edition console that made it $100 more.


jup. u pay for being special

Pretty much none effect. Still gonna get obliterated by the competition.


Doesn't mean the consoles won't sell.


What does it even mean? You think without those bundles the console wouldn't sell?

Xbone has a weak showing this year and beyond, a digital game bundled won't change that. It won't do anything in Europe, MS can as well stop trying, don't think we'll see much in NA, but it's their best chance for not being embarrased by competition's numbers, and I guess there is still hope for Japan and of course China, the new saviour.

As much you jump into thread and bring ps4 name in I think Sony should give u some money for it even Sony sells 200 million console and Xbox one sells nothing would Sony give u penny for it ? No they won't money goes in their pocket try and enjoy your console instead bashing Xbox one all the time 

Did I hurt your console's feelings or what?

Point where did I bring the PS4 name in the post you quoted. I don't bash Xbone all the time as I don't even need to, sales numbers speak for themselves.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

It's being outsold, but it also has a year on the Xbox one. Everyone ALWAYS fails to bring this up

You are right, every developer and publisher should already have it figured out and just stop developing for a dying console.

Nothing will ever save the XOne. NOTHING. No exclusive, no feature, no price cut, no hardware revision NOTHING!!!!

Xbox actually has a good line-up. Its pretty much why people are saying they beat Sony at Gamescom.


Who says that exactly? MSchartz?

What new did they announce? Some new CGI's like during E3 that I have missed?

They have nothing on Sony that would turn the tides in a meaningful way. Halo will sell to the same people who would have bought an Xbone for Halo 5, Quantum Break, hmm speechless...more like the king has no clothes. SO is a wild card that won't push many consoles imo even though MS pushes that game hard. 

And what is there to keep momentum through next year? Sony having a weak line up this year as well, will still push through the holidays up till next year with 2 big titles in Q1.


What's making you this pissed? Theres more than just Xbox fans that weren't impressed with Sony's Gamescom. You guys just need to stop hyping their shows up so much and then people wont expect something that wont come. There was plenty of gameplay during the MS conference and it kept us interested.

I meant after the price drop. It hasn't really affected the sales all that much since then.

Save from what? From being second place? Yup, nothing will. Nothing will also save it from being destroyed in Europe (yes that is a prediction).

Still. Everyone knows the first year of consoles have no games, second year it picks up, gets sales up. Just like the Wii U
