To build a similar PC it would cost upwards of $900. And that's without the small form factor, liquid cooling, etc.

You are getting a lot of tech for that $500

People complained this gen was "weak" cause the consoles didn't outperform PC hardware of a similar price.

XboX is the answer. The cost/power proposition is goat level.

I'll be buying a XboX this year as opposed to upgrading my PC:banderas:

I'm anxious to see a multi-plat running on it to compare to my pc or the equivalent system. They've really subsidized the pricing for sure.

Oh would you guys just quit it the XboX is a horrible machine and it's laughable that you think it stands toe to toe with the beasts that can be created with PC parts. A decent system would run circles around that pathetic box.

Have you ever been critical of anything Xbox has done?

If you have no PC and are interested in the best graphics possible on multiplats, then yes I would agree with the OP. The shyt packed in that box is definitely a steal at 500 bucks

People are too much of a fanboy to realize it. We are now witnessing the time where a console is more y than a PC again but I am afraid we won't be able to see the power because of licensing and marketing agreements(Sony Destiny 30fps)
Call folks a fanboy and say some dumb fanboy shyt in the same sentence brehs

I think it is very much a deal for those who have capable equipment (4k tvs, surround system) and don't wanna build a pc.

If you were playing 3rd parties on ps4/pro because of the power advantage, then you should just trade that toward the X1X.

The pro/1x don't really appeal to me, personally. Ill be ready for 4k when ps5/x2 drops.

Of course your right. But the majority of people in this forum are morons, so expect to be accused of being "delusional."

Like the Xbox 1, M$ is way ahead of its time here. I honestly think given the stupidtity of the general gaming audience, they should probably move away from gaming and focus on more lucrative avenues.
