Killer Deal: Xbox One X For $400 In The US

@cfscorpio: Yeah a few desperate idiots out there as usual. ;o) How about an S for just 229$ or 249$, yeah I think most would take that.

@ghost140: That's not gonna happen Sony wants your money and would not take less. It would be a great idea to lower the price of the Pro since almost all the sales are coming from the PS4 and not the Pro version of the console.

@ghost140: that would be extremely inviting for a gamer that doesn't have one.

@joannadark360: Almost certainly.

Again, buying HW just before E3 is usually a mistake.

@silv3rst0rm: I used to use my PS4 as my main console and the launch XBO was for certain games with friends or exclusives.

When the X launched, a lot of stores had great trade-in offers. I was able to trade in my launch XBO for $150 and had $50 of Gamestop rewards. I wanted a console that would really take advantage of my tv and the included UHD player was an awesome bonus.

Now my XOX is my main console for 3rd party games, because they look and perform better on it, and the PS4 has been used strictly for Sony exclusives (which are numerous and awesome games btw).

So it's not really a complete waste for 3rd party, and the few interesting exclusives, especially if you like to play online. For some dumb reason, NOBODY on PlayStation uses mics, which just annoys me, lol.

My point is that I was someone who got little use from my launch XBO and the X cranked everything up to 11. My go-to PS4 has now switched places with the X except for exclusives. And if you own a big 4k HDR tv, it's a great upgrade. Assassins Creed: Origins, Far Cry 5... I don't even know how the original XBO's can run these games now without conking out. Because the graphics, loading, and performance on the X are so much better on an appropriate tv.

It's much better if you can find a good trade program. But if you sold your launch and got the $400 console, it makes it easier to swallow. You'd be saving roughly $200. Now if the X would just support Dolby Vision I'd be set ;^)

@silv3rst0rm: But be serious: It's been a LOOOONG time since any physical brick-and-mortar videogame store had any kind of buzz in it, and the last 3 times it was for Nintendo (NESC, Switch, and SNESC).

@silv3rst0rm: Basic HATE RANT! I give it: 4/10!
