^this.... I could totally see. $299.99 for the hardware but you have to have Xbox Live which will now be $99.99 for 2 years or $15 a month. So the cheapest route you could take is to spend $400 up front for it.

And, don't get me wrong, I wouldn't like them forcing me to buy Xbox Live, but I wouldn't mind a more expensive Xbox. Yes it would take me longer to save for it, but what's the point of having it if it barely outperforms the one I already do have?

Better than $600 like the original PS3 and the only thing that really made it that high was the emotion engine for PS2 playback compatibility... Took that out and oh look we can drop the price in half!

$300 sounds about right for any console.

i always thought they took and loss on the xbox itself,and make the money up else where? so maybe you'll be getting more than you think for the price.

I like the sound of 4GB of RAM and possible X86 architecture in the Xbox 720. Maybe we can get some decent console ports to the PC now. tongue.gifthumb.gif

If this is a legitimate document then I might be interested in buying one. Decent hardware specs and a revised Kinect experience might be worth the price of admission. I presume that the $299 price point is with a 2 year Xbox live contract. It makes sense because they are testing that business model out on the current 360. However, I would never suggest that anyone ever sign up for a contract like that for a console.

I also wouldn't want to be Nintendo right now. They have less than a year to pump and dump as many Wii U's as they can before Microsoft and Sony release much more powerful and versatile systems.


EDIT: While reading through the document I found this:
Quote:
Remoting Server:
• Stream and play your AAA games remotely to any device

I bet that this explains all of the rumors about being able to play Xbox games on Windows 8. Looks like it'll act like a small personal cloud gaming service for your other devices.


Looks like they will also have a plan on keeping the 720 around for 10 years:

Should NOT require glasses or cloud processing
. Those will be layered inpost 2013.

Sounds like a hybrid cloud gaming service?

I just hope they don't cheap out on the hardware the considering the console is expected to last 10 years. Then again promised price point of $299 leads me to believe they are going to do exactly that. jealoussmiley.gif

This is pretty old(as the reporting article states), but if you look at some of the slides, it appears to be inconsistent as well. On some pages it talks about "4-6x Xbox 360" while on other slides it says "8x 360" in terms of compute density. 4-8x 360 is a fairly large difference which is essentially an AMD 7770-7850, further making these slides incredulous. Realistically, I would expect something on the order of 2.5TF of compute in 15 months, which is basically a 7870 if we're sticking to similar transistor budgets.
