PS2 and XBox Price cuts!
As taken from here.

However, the news of this drop presents many questions. Why are they doing this? Is the XBox really doing so terribly in Europe? Is the XBox following in the footsteps as the Dreamcast (although without anywhere near the same quality of games)? I think that MS are becoming desperate in Europe, they need to start shifting some XBox's and I believe this latest price cuts exemplifies that. SONY don't need to worry, with close to 30 million units sold they are more than safe.. but what about the XBox? I don't know, but I have a feeling that in Europe at least, the console war is over. - S |
MS is just trying to put xboxs in homes. If the ps2 is cheaper, then not nearly as many xboxs will sell and ms knows this. But on the other hand, if the xbox was cheaper, it would beat the pants off of ps2. Anyways, MS's big goal is really just to put xboxs in homes.

I think it is because Microsoft is just desperately wanting/needing to sell more consoles and develop some kind of fanbase. I mean, come on. TWO price cuts within the first year?!?
If I'm not mistaken the box is still taking money away from M$.. I can only see a service like XboxLive taking a bigger chunk out of there. Always possible that I'm wrong about this, though. |

Wait so does dat mean that Ps2 will be cheaper than 199.99 bcuz I just bought 1 this July

How could you say I don't give a crap? :nerv:
I do, but I seriously can't see how M$ is gonna profit even enough to recoup it's losses from Xbox Live! European internet infrastructure "sucking" being a major part of the problem. Even here Broadband isn't all THAT common. And it's expensive, at least here in Cali. (40$ a month in comparison to 20$ for a Mindspring 56k connection) |
