the only saving grace for the Xbox 1 was Halo. Everything on a PS2 smoked it.
for everyone saying "I'm going to get one", this system will be $599.99 ... same as a PS3.
Would you get an Xbox360 for:
Halo 3
Gears of War
or a PS3 for:
Final Fantasy 13
Gran Turismo HD
Grand Theft Auto
Metal Gear Solid
by MS raising their price, they just eliminated a huge competitive advantage.
I really think the only reason they're doing this is to gain back the next gen DVD market from Sony. I don't believe the 360 will have the console library to compete when the 360 Elite hits the shelves.
