Console: n. An outdated PC with a crippled OS and infested with DRM. which allows companies to sell games exclusively for one platform at a higher price.
However, due to the exclusivity of some titles it might be worth getting. And this is an excellent deal for the xbox live service...
I am buying one, Thank you op for a great deal.
