Well maybe because sales are good in USA and you get all your games alot earlier than us, we are still waiting for DX2 and PoP:SoT etc :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genius Posted December 10, 2003 Share Posted December 10, 2003 This is great news, but @my country[Poland] all the consoles are damn expensive, and X-Box costs about $250 so I really don't think that it will cost less on Christmas time either:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jago Posted December 10, 2003 Share Posted December 10, 2003 The Xbox is a complete failure in Japan so of course they are gonna release a bad ass bundle in order to try and draw in more buyers. Even tho I have all 3 systems...I'd pick the Cube over the Xbox anyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about time us Americans finally, FINALLY get the good stuff first. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
