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.

barker212-Alex-2oh9- I love how everyone just has a complete change of heart about microsoft after they got rid of that DRM, I hope they come back with something worse. Like raise the price of live again and again and again...
i think microsoft should have kept the DRM policies, noone moans about steam so they wouldnt moan about that. so if your saying the DRM policies were a bad thing i think you are wrong
No one moans about steam because steam doesn't have bs restrictions. Plus, you assume that it would've EXACTLY like steam. That's not the case. With drm on X1, you wouldn't even own the game that you paid $60+ on. Yeah that's real legit. There's a reason ms kept reversing its policies, because they knew no one would give the x1 a second look.

I am so freaking hyped for this console, my pre-order has been placed and I am ready. Also 100$ difference isn't that much. Also if you are poor or broke why would you waste 500 or 400 $ on a console when you can barely pay your bills?
