Good news for Spanish gamers who want a X1!


Excellent observation here by AZWification :D

wow, another price cut?..

Technically the 1st was just a SKU introduction that should have been made available day 1.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

MS can cut the price all they want but, in my opinion, Europe is dead for them no matter what.

They still have a chance in some EU contries to sell a good amount, but in place like Spain, they have no chance. 


Which countries, specifically, would those be?  The ONLY European country that the XB1 is selling at any significant volume is the UK.  Other than that one market, the rest of the EU might as well not exist for the Xbox!

Um, I think the countries where the 360 did alright in. So France, Germany, and maybe some other Western European country.

It's translated from German, but the gist is that the PS4 is outselling the XB1 by over 3 to 1 in Germany...so scratch that country off your list.

In general, it's even worse across the rest of the EU.  If you are looking to Europe to stem the bleeding, you are looking in the wrong part of the world.

Which is why it needs a price cut...The Xbox brand is not dead in some of those countries.
