Hard to say. Xbox has the Xbox live network you have to subscribe to for muliplayer. Playstation network is optional and sometimes gives free games.

500 bucks is too much if they can get it under 400 it will sell more and they make the difference up in selling games.

Multiplayer on PS4 requires paid subscription too. Both platforms give you 'free' games each month (with only the previous gen games on xbox still playable if your subscription lapses)
Thank you for correcting me. I haven't used a PS4 yet. I don't think people should pay for multiplayer over the Internet but I guess it is their business model?
