Next Xbox expected launch in November,$499 or $299 with subscription
Paul Thurrott, who nailed the launch date of the console, is back with more information and seeing as he got it right the first time around, we have reason to believe his new information is as credible as the first wave of content. According to Paul, the next Xbox will launch in early November and will have a price of $499 or $299 with a monthly $10 subscription.
In addition to the above information, the console will have a Blu-ray drive and as previously expected will be based on the core of Windows 8.
The critical information above, if accurate, is the release and price as Microsoft typically holds this information close to the vest before letting the public know these two crucial pieces of information.
We fully expect Microsoft's next console to be a true media hub in the living room with a significant focus on content, as well as gaming. Seeing that Microsoft is building out its Windows 8 ecosystems with phones, tablets, and PCs, the Xbox is the missing link for the ecosystem.

I don't know why people are freaking out over a small $500 price tag. For something you're going to be using more than anything else in your house, it is worth the one time price.

What good gaming PC can u get for 500 dollars
Well you can spend an extra hundred dollars or two and it will probably beat the Xbox 720.
I can easily make a Gaming PC for $500 that would beat the 720 or PS4.

I prefer consoles even though my pc is way more powerfull.

I am probably one of the only smart people here and just getting another Graphics card for my PC with that money. Also I will get more games and a new PSU with what is left. PC gaming FTW!
