Microsoft on the new Xbox One vs. PS4 battlefield: Same price but 'we have the better games'

With the price difference out of the way, Microsoft wants to remind everyone that it’s about the games.

More change is coming to Xbox One. Microsoft is dropping the packed-in camera to make the system the same price as its main competition. The $399 Xbox One will hit stores and start shipping to customers June 9, which is the day before the Electronic Entertainment Expo tradeshow. That’s when the company plans to start introducing all of its future releases. For now, Microsoft is ready to trade some punches with Sony again, and it is starting by pointing out that consumers can forget about the price and start focusing on the software.
