over 300 would be okay if it was worth it, but i doubt it would be much higher quality than the ps3 and that'll have to be considered,. (most people reading this on this site probably got more than their $s worth with the xbox - to most everyone else the xbox is only slightly better than the ps2)
MS definitely considered it when they sold most of the xbox1's below cost to stay competitive,.
MS makes money off game royalties not xbox systems,.
It'll be as low as possible, i'd bet under 300
MS's in a rush on this one, timing is key to successful sales of vg console units.
theyll have to beat/match Sony with the release date to more successfully market xbox2
