Next Xbox expected launch in November,$499 or $299 with subscription
Paul Thurrott, who nailed the launch date of the console, is back with more information and seeing as he got it right the first time around, we have reason to believe his new information is as credible as the first wave of content. According to Paul, the next Xbox will launch in early November and will have a price of $499 or $299 with a monthly $10 subscription.
In addition to the above information, the console will have a Blu-ray drive and as previously expected will be based on the core of Windows 8.
The critical information above, if accurate, is the release and price as Microsoft typically holds this information close to the vest before letting the public know these two crucial pieces of information.
We fully expect Microsoft's next console to be a true media hub in the living room with a significant focus on content, as well as gaming. Seeing that Microsoft is building out its Windows 8 ecosystems with phones, tablets, and PCs, the Xbox is the missing link for the ecosystem.

630630 Monthly subscription? What is this like a phone contract? They've lost it on this one.
They have had the monthly deal before, it just means that you get the system cheaper but you have to pay a more expensive price for live and have to sign a 2 year contract.

Xbox 360 launched for 500$ dollars if you wanted the 120 GB HDD. 200$ with no HDD, and 300$ for a 60 GB HDD.

Love how every just says it to exspensive when your poor and that was what the xbox 360 was worth when it first came out. So quit complaining and get your bands up. Not hard to save $500 for a quality system!

Definetly not getting this.. Atleast not till some more insight.
I think they pretty much **** up the console if most rumors are true. Also yeah the price is a bit high (yes I know its mainly inflation..) but still. Not getting this, maybe later if I hear some positive feedback and the price drops
