A new, cheaper Xbox One will launch here before the end of the year, apparently.And when it does, it's likely the £429.99 existing Xbox One model will drop in price to compete with the £349.99 PS4.http://images.eurogamer.net/2013/articles/1/6/5/1/3/9/1/139117630356.jpg/EG11/resize/300x-1/quality/70/format/jpgThere it is. Grows on you.
That's according to veteran reporter Matt Martin, a new hire at VG247, who heard from a "a well-respected source" (http://www.vg247.com/2014/01/31/senior-publishing-source-confirms-new-cheaper-xbox-one-release-for-2014/) that Microsoft had been briefing publishing partners about just this.The source did not confirm whether this new model would be the 1TB Xbox One that,yesterday (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2014-01-30-xbox-one-firmware-update-due-in-march-report), was rumoured to be arriving in November. Nor did the report say anything about this Xbox One not having a Blu-ray drive, nor being the white Xbox One that's rumoured to arrive in October.Those aren't the only Xbox One rumours doing the rounds. There's another about Halo 2: Anniversary Edition and Halo 5 beta arriving in November, and of Crackdown 3 being in development."We do not comment on rumour or speculation," commented Microsoft.
