    If Starfield (and to a lesser extent Fable) is a success, you can combine that with Xbox having the cheaper option “Series S”, and I think Microsoft and Sony will be far more on par at the end of this generation.

      I was hoping Xbox would be even more aggressive with the Series S pricing given its downsides, in my region they actually charged a lot more than the advertised 299 USD, even after a not so good exhange rate, taxes etc.

      Our local currency has fallen a bit more since so it is around par, but 2 years after launch and it’s still 2/3 the price of the Series X.

        You’re right, I think they should have definitely priced the new 1TB model at $299 and dropped the 512GB to $249.
