Cheaper Xbox One set for 2014 release, report claims
A new, cheaper Xbox One SKU will be released in 2014, a growing number of reports have suggested.
The claim first emerged via a whistle blowing NeoGAF post, which suggested that Microsoft is planning a new $399 Xbox One model, possibly minus a physical disc drive.
nformation contained in the post has since been verified by multiple publishing sources cited by CVG, The Verge and VG247, that latter of which credits "trusted publishing partners" as verifying the new Xbox One SKU, which it says will be cheaper than the current $499 USD / £420 model.
Although the original NeoGAF post states the new Xbox model may be released without an optical disc drive, this has not been verified by any publication.
It has also been claimed that Microsoft will be releasing a white Xbox One in October, to tie in with the release of Sunset Overdrive, as well as a special Titanfall edition of its new console in March. The white Xbox One rumour has been backed up by sources cited to tech site The Verge.

daRealRush I don't think they should release an Xbox One without a disc drive, because not many people have what you would call 'fast internet.'
You don't need to have fast internet to play. Only to download. I you have slow internet, don't make a purchase. stick with the other

Miss Sounds a lot better in my opinion. Install everything on the HDD making it quieter and games load up faster. Looking forward to purchasing this one if any model.
Agreed :) No more scratching discs and no longer being able to use them :D

Has anyone thought that maybe there is a disc less console already? It'd make sense as a dev console.

Yeah.. I would not enjoy this.. Maybe when I move houses I could experience the benefits of not having a disc drive, but until then.. No bueno.
