Phil Harrison - We couldn't be happier with the price we're starting

One other area where Sony won points was its pricing. At £349, the PlayStation 4 is £80 cheaper than the Xbox One's RRP of £429. It's not an insignificant amount of money, but Harrison is confident that the Xbox One will justify the extra. "We feel great about the value of Xbox One," he says. "It's a unique architecture, with Kinect and the power of the cloud. What we showed yesterday was the most incredible games lineup in any first few months of a platform launch, many of which are exclusive and all of which have advantages being on Xbox One. That's what's really going to drive value. We couldn't be happier with the price we're starting at."

In those few occasions you don't have access to your usual broadband connection, you could tether your Xbox to your mobile phone. The 24-hour ping takes kilobytes of data.

TEH POWER OF THE CLOUDZZZZZZZZZZZ!

They should throw in a year of XBL and a headset and it would be a better price.bobbetybob

I think it'd be a lot more competetive that way. 

$50 difference instead of $100. Makes it easier to swallow if you're an Xbox fan.

He may be happy, but I'd be happier if it were $399...:evil:

did he say that kinect is the most fun he's had with his clothes on???

Woah, wait a second That last part about the mobile phone If the check in is only kilobytes and Jesus, thats a great idea.

You're right, I mean sure its an extra step but tethering your phone to any device is too easy.  

Well in 2009, they decided to drop core and go upwards of 65% casual with Kinect(lol) garbage to chase the Wii's pot of gold.Heil68

The power of the cloud!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

....

....

So he says tether. Unless I am mistaken isn't that usually an extra expense? Or will the xboxone let u tether free just for check ins?AutoPilotOn

I hate the idea of kinect....I'd rather not pay an extra $100 for something I'll probably never use.
