Why is Microsoft holding cost of Xbox ones' be it disc or digital.
This is pushing me to purchase a new ps4 again -209 with c.o.d. 2019
Whereas I similar cost with a new xbox could be console+c.o.d. 249
Haven't mentioned online gaming services yet....
Though I agree xbox was my preferred of the two consoles -it's the youth games that put me off since I'm slightly older.

What size hard drive was the 1 at £209 ?


There's a 500GB PS4 for under £200, its on hukd.

Is there any risk going via e-bay Argos route.
I use e-bay to sell used tech though was there some sort of scam recently.
What's the best and inexpensive way to go online with ps4 I have my username .

Dont know of the scam.


There is no risk of going via eBay page for Argos, its a brand new item, you still get the same protection if you go via eBay.



Ill let you decide if to go for it or not, Black Friday isn't far away you might find a console could be cheaper.

Because they dont need to sell it cheaper.

The consoles themselves are almost certainly a loss leader for Microsoft, SONY and Nintendo. The really money is in the games and the subscriptions.

We might see a price change this Christmas and / or Black Friday.

Yes though with rumoured 1 year life span the big company's could offload loads more remaining stock @50% discount considering next gen is late 2020.
Of course I don't.t run a business ��

They'll continue to make current gen consoles as long as they sell, and they will continue to sell because they'll be cheap compared to the next gen consoles.

Thats what historically happens. Xbox 360 production continued for 2.5 years after the introduction of Xbox One.

Thanks at least c.o.d.offer is there, unlucky that Xbox offerer expired some time ago when I read your kind links.
Meanwhile I've decided not to purchase ps4+c.o.d@209 which is since raised to 249 again.
Think i'll return to xbox again.
One question does xbox c.o.d. Disc include digi download or is there a digi only version available to purchase.

Thanks p.s. I could wait until black Fri.
