[Official] Xbox 360 Elite Price Drop


Recommended Posts

Ok so I'm on my iPhone right but wanted to share the news with neowin first. My informer doesn't want to be named obv but this isn't one of those Leipzig rumours on the train, he's never let me down yet.

Anyway so to combat the PS3 Slim in the UK, MS are dropping the price of the Elite to ?200 and bundling 2 games: Fight Night Round 4 and Tiger 2010.

It's not the new Elite with wireless ...yet.

Happens on Friday:))

*games might vary with region but it's definitely 2.

My source said it would come with every 360 game for ?300.

So it will happen soon?

That bit wasn't actually provided to me by the source, but I imagine it will be the case once old stock has been sold and the new Elite makes it's way onto shelves. Just seems like the next logical step.

Also, this price drop will be all over the country from different retailers. The games bundled will no doubt be different, but the price is the same. He/She thinks that there will also be a 4 game bundle for a little extra (still under ?250), will have confirmation on that tomorrow.

The OP deal is for GAME btw.

Shame I didn't get the news online first, but I was close. I had the details on price and games bundled first though:pp

That's good news for Xbox 360 owners in the US but how about the rest of the world? IMO MS should do a global price cut not just in the US but for everyone else.

Not surprising. Ms knew it had the upper hand against Sony all along, so they have been waiting for Sony to issue the price drop first before following suit.

It's only a matter of time before the rest of the world gets their price drop as well.

The Elite is dropping to 250 euro's, effective tomorrow, in the Netherlands and I'm guessing the rest of Europe as well. An online games retailer just confirmed it.
