Didn't the EU get a price cut as well?

no official ones, although retailers are cutting prices

 

 

 Interesting, I would've thought that M$ would want to fight back in EU as Sony is currently breezing by them there.

 

 When its not selling...its not selling. Isn't the arcade model half of the price of ps3 in europe? I don't think they can go much lower than that.

I'm European (that moved to Canada as a kid) and generally speaking Europeans have this strange attitude that most expensive is the best. And they want to own the best...So 360 could be free and some people would still buy the ps3. Rarely will they think that something that is cheaper can be jsut as good if not better than the more expensive product.

 

Err... I don't think overlooking shoddy designs that have fundamental flaws is a 'strange attitude' nor do I think we blindly buy the most expensive.  I might as well wonder why Americans always buy cheaper even if its flawed... the message is don't generalize you just insult whether you mean to or not.

 

OT not bad boost but it won't last as MS have stated the price will remain same as before for new SKU so this is temporary at best, plus this week is probably the biggest the spike will be.

Still, the message on price point is pretty clear so it'll be interesting if MS take the bait to drop prices properly.
