£129.99... Looks like I was only £5 out with my estimate that they should be £125..(working on an exchange rate of 80p to the dollar.. being generous there too.. it's more like 58p) still screwing us it seems.
that reasoning is completely rubbish, we're lowering the price to let more people into our Xbox 360 community basically, it's because they are threatened by Nintendo Wii's complete superiority and PS3's upandcoming sales, Microsoft may have considered the price, but it doesn't change that it's as (or more) unrealiable as an iPod... (average life around... 6-8 months?). i think development of a new console would be in Microsoft's interest, as they can easily fix everything wrong with the 360 in a few modifications.
unless the Xbox 360's errors are fixed, the price wont matter, i wont buy it... just stick to my PS3... (vaule for money, is better.... come on!)
