What's so hard to understand! The price is going back to $399 after the Holidays. That's it. Microsoft is done losing money.

Yep, they're done losing money. With the price back up they can concentrate again on losing market share :)

If it does go back up it will be a bad move.

Nah, the next 3 will be fun. Another landslide win for X1 and then a total crash in January and then February to see if it crashes even further or can stabilize.

We all knew this was coming, but damn, that's a great move if your plan is to kill your momentum.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

If they raise the price then it will be a terrible decision but not unexpected. MS is known to do some really stupid things. I do think they will make $349 permanent though.

The effect of losing the price advantage is just as interesting as getting it in the first place. Fluctions are interesting good, or bad.

I see it but I just can't believe MS is going to raise the price back up... If they do they are hurting themselves... They just can't compete at the same price as the PS4...


They're hurting themselves right now that's the problem with the price being that low. If they weren't they would just raise it back up. They're hoping the holiday buyers will spread the word and get people to keep on buying it.

Well Microsoft cant lose money for that long(it cost $401 to make a kinectless xbox one)

they lose $50 for each one sold

That is just false.  Even more false a year+ after launch.
