Deal: Moto X Pure Edition 64GB unlocked + $25 gift card for $399

The Moto X Pure Edition has always been a solid deal, but today only B&H has a particularly compelling offer for those of you that don’t want to worry about running out of storage space on your device.

Until midnight Eastern time tonight, or while supplies last, you can score a 64GB unlocked Moto X Pure Edition in black, white or bamboo for just $399, and B&H is tossing in a $25 gift card as well. Taking the gift card into account, that’s a $125 savings.

While Motorola has damaged its solid update track record with most of its devices in the last several months, the Moto X Pure Edition was one of the first non-Nexus devices to receive the Marshmallow update, and since then, it has continued to receive security updates on a regular schedule.

Long-Awaited Xbox One Feature Still Seems Far Off

Way back when, Microsoft had a pretty good idea about how to encourage indie game development on the Xbox One. The company had seen how successful Sony had been with its indie games support on PS3, and was doing its best to make it easier and easier to get people developing small-scale games on Xbox One. The company had the idea to make every single Xbox One unit functional as a Dev Kit, and the video gaming Internet was understandably piqued by the idea. More than two years out of release, however, we’re still waiting on it, and it’s not looking all that likely.

If Xbox One Becomes Immortal, Where Does That Leave PS4?

Yesterday, news broke that Microsoft had a plan to effectively eliminate the concept of console generations for its Xbox brand altogether. By separating out hardware and software, developing games on the Universal Windows Platform, that allows Microsoft to create games for any device, PC or console, and to make all their games permanently backward compatible going forward.

‘No Man’s Sky’ Likely To Be A Full $60

There was some strange activity on the Playstation blog yesterday: a broader post about upcoming games included some information about the hotly anticipated No Man’s Sky. Hello Games’ procedurally generated Space Sim was listed at $60, coming out tomorrow, March 3rd. The post has since been amended, but Venturebeat has a screenshot of the information before it was taken down.
