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.

Really? If thats true, then Europeans have a "unique" view on consumer products. I think most people think that way but end up getting the most practical anyway. Your point fails with respect to last gen though because the xbox was more expensive.

My 2 cents: perhaps the EU doesn't wan't the xbox 360 because it is American and thus percieved as anti-soccer lol.

 

Really? Most people I know think that the best product is one of the ones in the higher middle price range US wise.

That the top one is usually overexpensive and likely to have some flaws charging the highest just to look the best... anything cheap can't be good... so the best is the middle ranged products and that research will find the best one.

Of course that really has more to do when there are like 10+ varieties of things... not just 3 systems.
