is this the week that the XB1 got its pricecut?

Edit: so it is. also the week the PS4 got its price promotion. seems PS4 won the week easily. 

I'm not sure but if it is we have even more proof that price was never the issue.

edit: Yep, I think it IS the week the XB1 got another price drop.

MORTAL KOMBAT TAKES SECOND CROWN

27/Apr/2015

There’s no change in the Top 3 as Warner’s ‘Mortal Kombat X’ (-64%) takes a 2nd week at No1, Rockstar/Take 2 are No2 with ‘GTA V’ (-50%) and EA’s ‘Battlefield Hardline’ is No3 (-26%).

All versions are developed by Haemimont Games in Sofia, Bulgaria and the PS4 version debuts at No7 on the PS4 chart.

Good to see current gen finally taking over.

This is also the week when ps4 got a 50£ promotion.

What's up with Minecraft PS4?

GAME is offering a PS4 bundle with Minecraft for £290.
