Woobie Yeah it's great for people who want to watch the NFL and use Skype.. but what about the middle class teenagers who just want to play CoD?


What middle class teenager doesnt watch the NFL or use skype?


Then you put in the disc and play call of duty? Is it that complicated? You sound an old man complaining about a smart phone because all he wants to do is call his grandchildren.

Sorry $499 is not fair. Maybe if they had a model that didn't included stupid kinect I would buy that but having to pay extra for something I don't want or going to use is not fair. IMO.

ShadowBoltDashie Don't know why they had to defend it, I thought it was pretty reasonably priced. I was thinking it was going to cost around $600.


Well that depends on where you live because the xbox one in Australia is $599 the ps3 as well is $550.


Oh I live in the US. I was thinking it was just an average $499 everywhere(As well as for other money like 318 pounds which should come out to $499, I used Google for that so forgive me if that is incorrect.)

I agree, I thought it was going to be higher then it was and it is only $499 because of the Kinect which a lot of people were going to buy anyways.
