Now that the Xbox One has fallen firmly into second place as the PlayStation 4 continues on its tour of world domination, fans of the Microsoft console are looking for answers. The $100 price difference between the consoles has clearly been a factor, but the wave of negative PR that surrounded the announcement of the Xbox One hasn’t helped either. How can Microsoft turn this console generation around before it completely loses momentum? Is it already time for price drop?
Not according to Forbes contributor Erik Kain:
“Cutting the price of the Xbox One this early into the console’s life-cycle would be a mistake,” says Kain. “If Microsoft slashes the price of its system from $499 to match Sony’s $399 PS4, the tech giant would lose money—quite a bit of money—on each unit sold.”
Here is the release date and time countdown for when the WWE 2K24 CM Punk ECW Pack DLC will come out along with the price.

Insider Gaming sits down with ExoCross creative director Paul Coleman to talk about the game's development, features, gameplay, and more.
Makes sense. The loss on hardware just wouldnt be made up by games. There simply isnt enough X1 exclusives to really make consumers come running.
Ugh why is losing money on a console so strange to microsoft it is the main rule of console manufacturing... take a hit on the hardware and make it back from the software unless said manufacturer is exceptionally greedy!

Not if they released a Kinect-less version.
I keep hearing the argument over and over that without Kinect the Xbox One would be just like the PS4, please tell me what Kinect 2.0 adds to the system?
A way to turn your system on without a remote?
A way to switch blades without a remote?
Really? Are you really holding on to the notion that waving your arms around is somehow easier than using your finger to press a button?
Well Kincet 2.0 has Voice controls too!
Ahh.... yeah, you can do the same thing with a headset.
Face it, Kinect is a gimmick, if you like that gimmick that's fine but don't force it on the rest of us.
Keep defending that anchor called Kinect and it will drag your system down even further into murky waters.
Fall further behind or take the hit in attempt to keep up. If I suggest the third option ill be set upon by angry wolves
