    wow very very expensive, did you watch the reveal last night, it looks like a terrible machine basically a SocialMediaTVBox. If I was gona pay $900 to watch TV I would rather just upgrade my current TV.

      Wrong. It's basically a games machine (5x power of the 360) with social media features, kinect, blu-ray and PVR thrown in.

    did i miss something? was that supposed to be a joke ?

    • very funny! not sure what the OP means

    • Because when Sony 'revealed' PS4, they didn't actually show what the console looked like. Only the new controller.

    sorry to join the neg fest, but this isnt even a competitive pre order price for australian stores

    Holy crap look at the prices of those games

    im pretty sure the price will come down by the time this gets released, and if not they are not going to do very well with regards to sales. Realistically, i think it will come out at about the $600 mark, and EB probably know this so they take the money now, then they offer you refund or credit to buy games, and hope you use the extra cah for buying games. Thats what i would do if i was in marketing in Eb, given their sales numbers recently.

  • Regardless of competitive pricing for a country, its not competitive pricing for a console, even at overseas prices. generation after generation, the big companies just don't learn.

  • Expensive in Australia. This console is $682 delivered from Zavvi on pre-order.

    No bargain to be had here.

    Then again i remember when the original PS3 was $1000 on release. Australians get ripped off with new consoles releases.

    • Surely that won't be the final price, unless EB expect the AUS$ to fall to US$0.50c

    Took 8 years before the xbox 360 become affordable for me. 2021 for my xbox one preorder

  • Where's the bargain here?

  • +3

    I don't know what's worse, the title or the commentors who think the price is legit.

    "Xbox One Console (Beat PS4, Wii U)", Xbot much?

  • I'll pass. I've been a gamer since I was a weee little kiddie and I'm not sold on the XBox One. The machine is 'virtually' just under the power of the PlayStation 4 but is impacted by 3 different operating systems… This will put pressure and restrict the processors and RAM doing what they need to ensure games are on par with PS4.

  • How much is it actually US price?

  • +1

    It beats PS4? Seriously, don't embarass yourself.

  • +1

    no bargain regarding price op just wanted to post but forgot this is oz bargain meaning bargains only, I also read xbox One is not backwards compatible with Xbox 360 games is this true if so this is another negative for me since some original xbox games couldn't even play on the 360 as well

  • +1

    Yeah this is just awful. Placeholder non-bargain pricing.

  • No bargain. Only just announced. Rubbish post.

  • +3

    You lost me at EB Games.

  • Really? Where's the deal?
