Xbox 360 Drops 10 Pounds in Europe

by Ingrid on August 27th, 2006

 

The beloved Xbox 360 has gone on a low-carb diet, and dropped 10 pounds since its release. And by ‘pounds’ I mean British pounds. Though, it would be funny if people rushed off to weigh their Xbox 360s.

From GBP 209, the console is now at GBP 199, which is a nice round number. It’s almost as if they planned it.

Earlier this week, Microsoft had denied that an official lowering was in the works, saying: “Retail price is set by our retail partners. Retailers are already selling Xbox 360 Core System from £199.99, which we believe is outstanding value to consumers.”

But the retailers gave a completely different story to the website. “The Core version has dropped by £10 today - they’ve issued it directly so it’s not been driven by retail,” explained a spokesperson for a leading entertainment retailer.

Don’t everyone rush at once to purchase the Xbox 360 now that it’s become so much more affordable. I’m sure there will be plenty for everyone.
