Microsoft: Xbox One is worth $100 more than PlayStation 4
The Xbox One will be $100 more than the PlayStation 4 and $200 more than the Wii U this holiday season, but Microsoft is not stressing over its stance as the most expensive console.
"It’s up to us to prove that it’s worth $100 more. I think it is," senior director of product planning and management at Xbox Albert Penello told GameSpot today at PAX Prime in Seattle, Washington.
Penello said the suite of games and services Microsoft is offering with the Xbox One is stronger than the competition.
"I think we do more. I think our games are better. I think as people start to experience Kinect and see what it can do using voice, I think that’s better," he added. "I think the ability to have an all-in-one system where you can plug in the TV, that’s better. I think we’ll have a better online service."
"I just believe that we’re going to have a better system."
Ultimately, consumers want to buy the "best thing," Penello said. The Xbox One's stance as the most premium console this holiday season won't hold it back, he argued.
"$100, when you’re talking $400 vs. $500 [shrugs shoulders]. I don’t believe it’s going to be the deal-killer," he said.
The Xbox One launches in November for $500.

I personally think $100 more is not too much to ask for. The console looks really nice but I don't think I'll be buying it on day one.
I'm not really that excited for the next gen consoles :L

I feel that the Xbox One is worth the price given. As for comparing the price to the Wii U? Not even a competition...

CokesLyonAggie Well 400 and 500 dollars is really big when people are on budgets now a days.
yea plus there are new games to get so id rather spend $100 on the new games rather than kinect.
You could really only get like one game though.
rather an extra game and a half rather than a stupid kinect I won't use

DawDr-J Obviously. But it's worth that without the kinect with the great security and great updates Microsoft does.
I wish we could just get it without the stupid Kinect. Waste of $100.
yeah i agree Kinect is a waste of money !
