Title: X360 Pricedrop in Europe
Post by: Third on September 16, 2008, 10:40:58 AM: Arcade €179
Pro €239
Elite €299

BeNeLux is even getting a better deal:

Arcade € 149
Pro (60gig) €199
Elite (120gig) €249

2 Arcades will cost me almost as much as 1 Wii.

WHOA

Post by: Third on September 16, 2008, 11:05:19 AM: The Elite went from €369 to €249

Arcade is only €20 more expensive than a Ps2.

I wonder if this'll help sales...

A Ps3 costs just as much as an Arcade with 5 full priced games.

New HD gamers will definitely chose for X360, I guess..

Amazon.de still says 199 for arcade, 269 for the premium. Seems Germany is not Europe once more...Fuckers...
199 for a Premium is ace.
Can somebody from the Benelux confirm this? I might take a visit there...

Post by: Third on September 17, 2008, 05:03:43 AM: Benelux pricing will start on september 19th.

All game sites in Benelux have confirmed it

But you'll need to download a coupon after you've bought the console. Send the coupon to MS, and they'll give you money back. How much depends on the SKU.

€30 off for the Arcade
€40 off for the Pro
€50 off for the Elite

Post by: Mrbob on September 17, 2008, 04:36:42 PM: Finally MS is kicking things into gear. Get the price down, sell more hardware so we can keep on getting more real games. 360 is still a pos system, but I will buy another one as long as the software rolls in.
