Came across this post in Forbes Magazine.. from a Microsoft analyst that states the next generation Xbox (commonly called Durango or the 720), will be sold at a $500 price point, or a lower version for $300 (plus a mandatory subscription to Xbox Live.)
I swear, if this is the last generation of pure consoles, it will be because the main players completely misread the market, or worse yet, ignored their core markets while trying to expand it to new areas.
Combined with the recent issues where a Microsoft executive made some bizarre statements to try to defend the rumors that the next generation Xbox would be an "always on" console.. it really makes me shake my head.
We're in a time frame where they should be building interest to the new console, and all they're doing is taking out the trusty foot gun, and putting it on automatic.
