Microsoft cuts Xbox 360 prices across Europe
BetaNews | at | by Mike
Microsoft moved to adjust Xbox 360 prices in the European market, likely in an effort to both line up its cost with other regional markets while also taking into account a weakening US dollar. The changes are taking place in both the UK and markets where the Euro is the currency of choice. In the UK, the base Xbox 360, the Arcade, will fall to $159, down $20, the standard model to $199 from $49, and the Elite $259 from its original ??299 price.
In Euro markets, the new prices will be 199 euros for the Arcade, 269 euros for the Premium, and 369 euros for the Elite console: a drop of 80 euros across the board.
