That is a... weird design? But a very nice price to get in on the ground floor of the next gen consoles if this all turns out to be true! https://twitter.com/...

A first look at Xbox Series S coming in November. Incredible $299 price for a next gen console, will open the market to even more gamers. https://twitter.com/...

This is...wow. A $299 next-gen console coupled with Game Pass for a huge library of games (including new releases) will be an incredible value for the price. This is big for Xbox. Your move, Sony. 😮 https://twitter.com/...

This is a really good offering when paired with Game Pass - an affordable next-gen option. But it desperately needs a re-brand, because Series S means nothing, and doesn't get that across at all. The average consumer would have no idea at a glance. It's Wii U all over again. http…

Xbox really needs to win this console generation, imagine how more players and more eyes would benefit franchises like Gears and Halo. Xbox was on top in the 360/PS3 generation and that was the high point for Gears and Halo, can we get back there again? Let's wait and see. https:…

I like how the first next gen console to get an official price isn't the PS5 or the Series X, but the Series S console that was just officially announced today. https://twitter.com/...

I love that this happened at 12:13 AM. This console launch cycle is INSANE. https://twitter.com/...

That is kinda crazy cheap coupled with the gamepass 🤯 https://twitter.com/...

A whole gaming PC for the price of a graphics card... Your move, NVIDIA....... https://twitter.com/...

Xbox Series S at £249? Man, that's a cracking price. I still think we'll be a PlayStation 5 household but that's only going to help make next-gen gaming more affordable for all. https://www.engadget.com/...

This is a terrific price but a weird concept - a next-gen console that won't even do 4K. I guess it's a cheap version to keep the player base big until Series X gets more affordable? https://twitter.com/...

good idea: Microsoft immediately wins the price war, and further dominates value-conscious households with the All Access offering, growing the number of subscribers, which is clearly its chief goal
@alexhern Alex Hern on x
bad idea: Microsoft has doubled-down on its “no exclusives for a year” message and told would-be early adopters “here's the perfect second console for you; go out and buy the PS5 first and then pick this up when there are exclusives to play”.
