The Xbox One is launching in SA on 23 September 2014, and I know there are a few gamers who are holding out, counting the days until the Microsoft console arrives.
The standard console (without Kinect) will set you back R6,299 and includes 2 free digital game downloads. The bundle with Kinect, and the two free games, will cost R7,999.
So, you have the date, you have the price, but what about all the games and/or peripherals launching alongside the One?
