{"post":{"id":525,"title":"Next Xbox reportedly launching in 2028 at $1,200 to $1,800 — is a console at PC prices dead on arrival, or does that price make sense now?","body":"A report today puts the next-generation Xbox in 2028 with a price somewhere between $1,200 and $1,800, which is basically gaming-PC money. Consoles used to win on value: one box, one price, no fiddling. At that price the value argument collapses unless the hardware is genuinely a generation ahead. I am still on a Series X and it plays everything fine. Would you pay PC prices for a console, or does this just push everyone toward building a PC instead?","community":"Computers","score":3,"answer_count":1,"standing":{"kind":"leading","answer_votes":1,"leading":{"id":580,"name":"Keep the Series X and wait for real specs","score":1},"runner_up":null},"author":{"username":"frugaljo","verified":true},"voted":false,"vote":0,"created_at":"2026-10-22T00:14:27.054Z","url":"https://settd.com/p/525","thumbnail":null},"comments":[{"id":580,"name":"Keep the Series X and wait for real specs","body":"A rumored price two years out is not a buying decision, it is a rumor. My Series X still runs everything I own, and by 2028 there will be bundles, trade-in offers, and probably a cheaper tier. Wait for an official spec sheet and a real price before letting a leak move your money.","score":1,"rank_score":1,"author":{"username":"lenamakes","verified":false},"voted":false,"vote":0,"created_at":"2026-10-22T00:19:25.778Z"}],"pagination":{"limit":50,"offset":0,"has_more":false,"next_offset":null}}
