Do companies release products cheaper than what's out?

Not following what you mean. (http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i266/Chiprocks1/Smilies/0%20All%20Smilies/shrug.gif)
-
I mean I don't recall a company following up future releases cheaper. Typically it's better, with more bells and whistles and they keep the price the same, but rarely have I seen a company release a new product less expensive than what they've priced it previously.
I may be just talking out my ass, without much thought into this.
-
There is no price point for the Xbox 720. All talk that says otherwise is purely speculation at this time. History has shown that new gadgets like a console will cost more....not less, as you pointed out with the Bells and Whistles. That s h i t cost money and Microsoft isn't one to pass the savings onto the consumers. But once the 720 is released, you will be able to pick up the 360, which is what we all have now, at a drastically reduced price. So, if you're still on the fence about getting a console, this may be the right time for you to do so. You will practically be getting it for free.
I will definitely be getting the 720, but I'm also considering get the latest from Sony. The PlayStation has a lot of exclusive titles that I want to play and I can't do that if I own just an Xbox.

IGN News: XBOX 720 Leaked Document
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CX-0Gxd42Pw
The $299 price point to me is just way too low for a console AND Kinect 2. Don't get me wrong, I'd pick it up at that price for sure. It would actually be cheaper than what I paid for the 360 which didn't have Kinect or a Blu-ray player in-console.

Xbox Live Event (May 21, 2013) (http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/05/08/watch-the-xbox-reveal-event-live-on-ign)
I'm currently watching the pre-show before the Event. Can't wait to see what the new Xbox is gonna be. Event happens in less than 30 minutes from now (10am for those of you that can't count on your fingers).

Starting now.....

I like how instant the voice commands are. It's fluid. Still waiting on the price point....
-
No price point was announced. But they premiered Call Of Duty Ghost, which will be a launch title. OMG. Wow! The Character models look sick. I was originally intending to wait for the price drop before getting the new Xbox One console. After seeing that this is capable of and really waiting Call Of Duty Ghost, I'm 99% certain I will get the console on Release Day.
-
One thing I forgot to mention about Xbox One and my reaction to the design. It's ugly. I mean really ugly. What was great about the 360 were the lines and contours. The shape. It felt special and unique. Xbox One seems to have gone retro. All the way back to the first gens of VCR's when they first came out. Big. Bulky. Ugly. I'm curious if you can stand One on its side like you can with the 360. From the looks of it, the answer would be an emphatic no. Now, more than ever, my interest will turn back to see what Sony puts out. I'm sure they will unveil and sleek design with the PS4. Just have to wait until E3.
-
I've been watching E3 all day today as well as yesterday. I was a PS2 playa before moving over to Xbox 360. So, I really don't have a firm allegiance to one console over the other like a lot of other players tend to be. I was somewhat disappointed with Microsoft's conference yesterday. Clearly, the big winner of the day was Sony. So much so that I'm kinda leaning toward getting PS4 before I would even think to get Xbox One. I think they have grossly over priced it at $500. I said all along that I would buy it if they went over $400. So, I will just wait for the price drop on that.
Eventually, I see myself owning both. Just a question of what the plugs in the back do so. If it's possible, I would just run one console into the other and then into the TV. If not, then I'm gonna get really tired of unplugging one console for the other as my mood shifts.
-
Another thing, I talked to an Xbox rep today to find out a bit more regarding some of the things that were left unclear at their press conference yesterday. It was mentioned that anyone that joins Xbox Gold on 360, starting in July will get 2 free games for that month. What was unclear is if it's month to month or if you have to get a year subscription. The rep said it was month to month and was confident in saying it was official, but I'm still under the impression that it's a year long subscription.
It may in fact be month to month, because in the conference, they said the deal was only good up to the release of Xbox One, and that drops in November. Clearly not a year from now. Also, none of the games we get on 360 will transfer over to Xbox One, including any and all Arcade Games you currently have sitting on your 360. So, if there are a few games that you love and want to continue playing, you have two options, re-pay for them on Xbox One and / or just keep your 360 plugged in somewhere in the house.
-
interesting.
Was talking with the guys at the UPS store today and my guess for the new xbox price point was it would be $560. Now that is not the MSRP. I knew walking out the door with the next console people would be dropping around $560...whether that's with a 1 or 2 year warranty, an extra controller.
the price was SO predictable in fact I think I nailed exactly what people will be spending if not about $20 more taking it to $580 out the door/...why are they charging that price?...because it's exactly price people would go up to...doesn't matter what the thing costs to make.
I knew that would be what they thought an average person would or could spend.
NO ONE would go over $600 so they took it as damn close as possible with the extras...and trust me, it's IMPOSSIBLE to not walk out with one thing more...a chord you are going to need, the gold card upgrade.
F%%% these companies.
trust me I am not saying Playstation won't do the same damn thing.
-
Well, I was always of the mindset that I would be waiting out the initial impulse to rush out and buy on day one. I knew that it would be pricey, but what Xbox is charging is ridiculous. What makes it worst is that the parts and components of this next gen console isn't nearly as robust as the PS4, and yet they are charging $100 less. So, it has absolutely nothing to do with parts, but more about how much Microsoft can "get away" with bilking their customers.
At the end of the day, I actually see myself owning both consoles which isn't something I've ever considered doing with the previous consoles. Each new console offers me something that I want, but not enough at the price that they are charging. I can probably swing a deal for the PS4, but given the fact that I see myself owning both, I will definitely have to sit out Xbox One for a major price drop.....or find one dropping off the back of a truck to take possession of it.
One last thing, I think that Xbox showed off more games that I want compared to what Sony rolled out this past E3, which is going to make waiting out the price drop on the Xbox even more excruciating for me. Where do you see yourself with the consoles?
-
I honestly think these game console in some ways are becoming almost obsolete and this is a last gasp effort for both companies with this type of set up.
a very smart business person could merge PC gaming and these consoles and basically be the next must have item.
this is like putting a new veneer on basically a computer...but not as good of a computer as you can buy for $600...too many people are scared to switch over...but lets face facts.
one that does both perfectly...but appeals more to gamers...will win. I'd have mine come out with both keypad and mouse and 2 traditional game controllers...charge $650 and have it be a 2 terabyte hard drvie with 6-8 gigs of RAM.
nuff said true believer.
-
it would come in black and a limited edition silver version.
because collectors eat that **** up.
;)
-
That's why Microsoft is trying so hard to merge the console into an all-in-one entertainment center. Someone, if not the Big 3, could definitely swoop in and do the PC thing. It's just a question of who's got the balls to go up against the big boys and getting publishers to make games for them.
-
There was actually another upstart company that E3 tried to get shut down because they had set up shop across the street and they felt that they were in direct conflict with the Bigger companies. They even went as far as calling the cops on them. It's all on video. I'll dig it up. They seemed to have something interesting going on. Hell, they were at least smart enough to give out free beer all day long to generate foot traffic to their booth. I'd like to see them succeed.
-
yeah I mean....I'd almost have the tower more like the Xbox 360 I just got...that sexy black 320 gig hardrive one...or whatever it holds.
RAM is cheap as **** now...so pack the ****ing thing to the gills....I am serious man...take it to at least 6-8 gigs...if not 10-12...sounds crazy but I am telling you it's not...and a 2 terabyte hard drive would be a good start I think...I'd like for them to opt to taking it to 3...but I would NEVER store more than 4 TB on any one thing...way too much **** to risk losing.
then you have a remote keypad and mouse so you can do all your gaming and computer stuff with that and for pure gamers who ONLY use it for gaming have it come with 2 traditional controllers....not everyone needs them...but I mean....charge a SOLID price for this thing...I think around $650 is perfect...it's a LOT of money...but hey you are getting all this amazing stuff that has NEVER been offered for a gamer in one killer package.

just popped on Martin Scorsese's shine a light The Rolling Stones film concert documentary. 5 minutes in this thing is already amazing. Its crazy because even if you're not a Rolling Stones fan you can appreciate how much these guys have done and Scorsese's directing is incredible. one thing that is really insane is how scarred and creased all the guys in the band faces are. it looks like their faces have traveled a million miles but they all have full heads of hair!!! go figure.
Lol!!!
-
I forgot all about this one. Thanks for the reminder.
-
no spoilers but it's interesting because it's a concert hosted by Bill Clinton and they have some really cool stuff with Bill Clinton and the stones talking.

Xbox One S Overview Trailer - E3 2016
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKP0wVh9IAE
Well, my patience will be rewarded. News just dropped today that the new Xbox One S (Slim) will also included a 4k Blu-ray player. Nice!!! I passed on the original Xbox One console, which is already 2 years old. I hated the design and the fact that it had to lay flat was another turn off. The Slim will finally allow us the option to stand vertical which is a must since I don't have much space as it is. But yeah, 4k blu-ray. Check. Vertical Stand. Check. White coat of paint. Check. Smallest Xbox Console yet. Check. Comes out in 2 months. Check. All that is left for me now is to decided which Storage size I want: 2 TB, 1TB or 500GB. I already know I'm not getting the 500 version.

The Big News out of E3 today is the official announcement of the Xbox One X (formerly the Scorpio). $500 price tag. I actually thought this would be around the $800 price range. So, this is good. I'll wait though before jumping in. I just recently bought the Xbox One S....so, I'm good for now.
