If Microsoft wants to push the download games, then why don't they just offer lower prices on new games now. If I can download a new game for 49.99 as opposed to buying the disk for 59.99 I would consider downloading the game

Valid.
So far it seems all they are doing is pinky promising that when they go digital downloads, games will be cheaper.
History would probably suggest that XBone and PS4 games will be $69.95 at retail. And at least as of right now digital copies of games are the exact same price as retail copies.

Who says they won't with the One?
They have zero incentive to lower digital pricing on the 360 this late in its life cycle.
