Microsoft said it will start selling its Xbox video game console on November 8 for $299, finalizing its plans to take on industry giants Sony and Nintendo for dominance in the $6.5 billion industry. Microsoft said it expects to sell from 1 million to 1.5 million Xbox consoles through the holiday season, despite expected competition from Nintendo, which is launching its next generation GameCube console around the same time.

Don\'t forget NFL2K3, NBA2K3, NCAA2K3 (I think), and WSB2K3. All online too.

Halo will be online too.

And It\'s called Crazy Taxi Next, not 3. I only mention that cause they might count it only as a side game w/Online, and not the real CT3.

Whoa.
Nov 8th? cheap price tag of $300?

GAmes like
Onimsuha:Special, Dino Crisis 3, StarWars:StarFighter-Special, Nfl2k3, Crazy Taxi Next, Halo, etc?
That sounds like a pretty damn good line up and an excellent price tag.

Too late. Xbox.com was showing it... it\'s over. Don\'t feel bad, I missed everything before the DC3 announcement.

November 5, to be exact.  Is three days enough to steal Xbox thunder?  I think that one is in the hands of the advertisers.
