[quote]Microsoft finally got down to officially telling everyone the official price of an extra Xbox One controller, and it's $59.99. The Xbox One's headset—which isn't included in the box—is $24.99.
This is important because existing Xbox 360 controllers and compatible headsets won't work with the Xbox One (Microsoft reasons that Kinect, included with every Xbox One, can already handle voice chat for you.)
You'll get one controller in the Xbox One's box. If you want an extra recharging pack, that will run $24.99.[/quote]

I dont see the bullshit, since the original 360 controller was 50 at launch with another 20$ for a charge and play kit. That was 70$ for a chargeable controller when the 360 released. Now the Xbone controller has a battery pack in it an integrated battery compartment, so overall it appears to be 10$ cheaper. As for the headset, its 5$ more than the original one, and looks to be much better quality.
