Not going to bother; not at that price.

Considering I just picked up a working 360 bundle the other day for $15, no way will I be buying this for a very long time.

Looks like Sony is gonna get the better sales.

Wow $500, is it the year 2005. I think people are smart enough or at least I hope so... not to buy the console at that high price. The Xbox360 and PS3 were so expensive when they came out and now they are 1/4 of the price.

So the UK have to pay roughly $150 more than the Americans. £430 = $655

I think i will just upgrade my PC's graphics card instead.

The ignorant masses will line up for this thing. Too bad.

LOL... $500 for a SpyBox One? No thanks.

Come on guys. Cut MS a break.

Naturally it has to be expensive... it's can't be cheap for MS to get businesses to sign exclusivity deals so they'll only advertise on LIVE and not PSN.
