If they are the only ones selling it at that price i doubt it'll last long, as most people will buy it there instead of other stores, so unless Amazon is sitting on an entire warehouse of them, they'll go out soon-ish

MS does have deep pockets and can do whatever they want to throw money away. Apparently they don't want to sell the Xbone at $350 during the slower times of the year when they can sell a comparable amount of consoles for $50 more. |
you made me spit my coffee. Shame on you
OT: this is silly. They must have been taking significant losses to raise it back up. It looks like they are still bundleing the games tho. I wonder if they will keep this bundle or if its just leftover stock. Good job MS on great end of 14 sales tho.

yeah, thats why i said i didnt knew how many consoles they would sell at that price since everyone with common sense would just buy it from them.
CGI-Quality said: I wish I could find the thread where folks laughed at me when I called the promo temporary. Microsoft sang that song from every mountain they could! There was no reason to believe otherwise. In regards to them losing money @ $349.99, I suspect, but can't confirm, that. |
Well, we can keep expecting them to drop the price... let's see how long it will take...
Vanilla at 350 probably break even or made small loss, but with 2 games bundled it certainly lost money.

Oh man that's awesome but I said nothing about the PS4. |
Oh are you talking about selling comparably to the higher price? That's even worse!
Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

There's probably no point for anyone in getting the console until black Friday or holiday this year. We will see a permanent cut at e3 and a halo 5 black Friday bundle possibly even cheaper. $300 maybe
They actually went through with it. It would not surprise me if they sell more consoles weekly thanks to this strong holiday season but the PS4 is gonna take advantage spike is price. It would be mind blowing if the PS4 reduced their price before E3.

Actually Nadella stated multiple times the importance of the Xbox brand to Microsoft and it's consumer electronics division (which Xbox is under). It's the most important of all of them. And he believes Xbox will keep Microsoft in the minds of consumers.
