Xbox One price confirmed £429

[Marc_92]

The price was just confirmed on the E3 Microsoft stream.
Edit: Pricing in usd 499 and 499 euros.
Gotta love that exchange rate.

Ouch. Expect they're price gouging as they'll beat PS4 out in the UK for a while. Price will probably drop once the PS4 comes out over here.

Must admit, highlight of the entire thing for me was seeing Witcher 3 (Should imagine if Kal was watching probably same thing!! )

Surprised that they have done an exclusive on Dead Rising 3

[Marc_92]

I think the highlights for me were the halo announcement, witcher 3 gameplay and some titanfall gameplay. Everything else looks abit mediocre.

I won't be buying that 'always on' machine at that price.

Adding £400 to a decent pc would get you something pretty good for gaming...

I just looked up the dollar conversion, and compared it to the dollar price. Ouch >< Going to wait for a bit, see what bundles/price cuts they offer before coughing up that much.

It's more likely that the dollar to pound conversion will be $499 = £499.

Even so £429 is still too expensive for me

But you get an achievement and some DLC for launch day games for buying it at that price gotta be worth it surely.

Just done a conversion using current exchange rates :

$499 = £320
$499 = €376

So Europe and the UK are getting overcharged yet again

I'm not sitting up for PS4 reveal tonight but going to watch it tomorrow, I hope Sony do it right on so many different levels. Global simultaneous release, decent pricing etc

[Marc_92]

Im expecting the ps4 to come in around the same price if not a little cheaper (maybe £30-£50 if we're lucky). Both seem unappealing atm and since ms are still charging for live, thats a big turn off for me.

I won't be buying that 'always on' machine at that price.

Given some of the requirements, I won't be buying it at any price.

[Dareos]

No one just buys a machine though, they buy a bundle. It's generally two games and an extra controller, or three games and a blue ray, or whatever accessories are available. Pretty much means we are looking at £500 to get started. That is steep.

+ US taxes, but the price is still a bit high.

PS4 - £349 nuff said

[fatguy666]

They've been doing from as far as I remember, swap out the $ for a £ and hope no one says anything. Bloody joke!

Dead Rising 3 looks stunning but think I'll be giving this at least a year before I even consider getting one.
