$499 for Xbox One X

Maybe the price is like that so they can drop it for Christmas?

Xbox One S was dropped to $199

doubt so, I wish for the xbox fans that it would be the case but the price is above the price of the hardware, they are already barely making any margin on that console if they do any

you have to keep in mind that it was customized hardware made especially for the console and that isn't cheap to produce

they knew they couldn't sell it above 500 bucks so they probably settled for that price for the time being

They nearly have a Trillion dollars, I'm sure they can take the hit

I'm not telling that they can't take a such loss / low margin

I'm telling that they probably won't lower the price soon because they have to be bankable for the shareholders

Then after, they'll make it up with XBL and videogames

Sony did that too with the PS3 at that time, I know it's possible, but the price didn't go down for quite some time

just the price of the cell processor at that time was around 800 bucks

it was a powerpc arch with 8 physicals cores back in 2006...

I heard a lot of games ran better on the X360 than the PS3

if you want, we can talk about architecture and SDK optimizations, that's not the point though

Heard a lot of issues with the cell processor and split memory

again, that's not the point, but if you want to know it was mostly an issue with multi platform games

games developped especially for the PS3 didn't had any issue and ran better than xbox360 exclusives
