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.

Too pricey for a console these days, might as well spend it on a PC and build something better.

XeX_DuBwooferxJelly_Bean $499 and 10$ a month is alot thats $120 a year not mention the games your going to buy...
Its going to cost $299 for the people who take out the 2 year $10 a month subscription
Well I think that's a fair price. $299 dollars for the console and an extra 200 for 2 years of live. Personally I like most people will just get the $299 one.
