Xbox chief says Project Scarlett ‘will not be out of position on power or price’

In Phil we trust.
Nadella gave Phil money to buy the studios, Panos Panay is now the chief product officer for Xbox and not just Surface devices and Kareem Choudhry is his right hand man for Xbox system construction now, Gamepass is popping for them. Xbox Series X is a tech beast due to Panos and his team. Nailing the price is the royal flush. $399 or $429 is not out of the realm of possibility. I was looking at things that that Microsoft has done from last generation to this generation. Take the controller for example. The Xbox One Controller is basically perfect and they put over $100 million in R&D into it last gen
Xbox One pad cost $100 million in R&D - Microsoft
I know that they didn't even put a 1/4 of that into the current controller for the Series X.
They have been working with AMD since the Xenos GPU for the Xbox 360 and have become quite good at their chip fabrication.
If this retails for $399 and Lockhart is a streaming only Xbox with a subscription that originally retails for $149-$199, then that would be the most ideal setup for them next gen.
Sony nikkaz gone be like
You know it'll be cheaper once spiderman2 and God of war 2 come out, I'll wait till then
But don't fret Sony gamers, that would only lead to Sony doing actual great things to rebuild that user base. Free games every month was a Sony idea. Haven't really innovated before or after that but regardless they did it because they was desperate. Let's hope they get that way again
