UK 360 Finally getting price cut
It’s about time that we get a price cut for the 360 as America, Australia and Japan have had one so people will be glad to hear that Microsoft has finally seen the light of day and announced that there will be a price cut from this Friday.
First on the list will be the new Elite that will now retail at 299.99 instead of 329.99, the Premium will get a 30 pound price cut dropping the price from 279.99 to 249.99 and finally the core will drop from 199.99 to 179.99.
Stephen McGill head of gaming & entertainment for Xbox in the UK said in a statement that “Whether it’s our lead in console sales, record-setting games and accessory attach rates or our leading online service, evidence is everywhere that Xbox is thriving.”
He went on to say that “When you combine that momentum with these great-value offerings with our unbeatable Christmas game line-up, it’s clear that Xbox 360 is uniquely placed to take the UK by storm this Christmas.”.
The drop comes on the same day as Microsoft release two of there big games Bioshock and Blue Dragon and should increase the sales of the 360.
