Roughly three months after the Xbox One hit stores, its price was cut.
On February 24, Microsoft lowered the retail price of its next generation console in the UK from £429.99 to £399.99, the equivalent of a $50 price cut in the U.S. At the same time, the company unveiled an upcoming Titanfall bundle in both regions, which includes a copy of the system's most anticipated game at no additional charge.
The bundling of such a big game raised some eyebrows, but the UK cut really set gaming forums ablaze. Was Microsoft acknowledging weakness in Xbox One sales? Was it "pulling a Nintendo" to remain competitive? Was the company throwing in the towel?

The pre-load for Activision and Iron Galaxy's Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 is now available, and the download size has been revealed.
I wish they’d do a proper switch 2 update for Tony Hawk 1+2 me and my 7 year old daughter love playing it in split screen and it plays great but it looks absolutely terrible. I would say it looks like the resolution drops down to about 540p in order to keep the framerate up.
The Ace Combat series celebrates its 30th anniversary, and Bandai Namco revealed interesting initiatives, on top of a poignant message.
That controller looks like a cheap knockoff... it should have been a proper DS5 design.
Can we get a new Ace Combat, with full vr and not just three or four levels, for PS5 and PSVR2
Also if we could get a remake of my all time favorite, Ace Combat5: The Unsung War, again with full vr for every mission with DualSense and flight stick haptics.
I just want them to remaster AC4 and AC5, a new AC with better more realistic looking world and planes would be great too
No doubt MS is feeling the heat with the success of the PS4.
Yes price cut had little affect in Europe PS4 is running a train on the competition this is with out any big releases this should be very concerning to Microsoft.
Absolutely not. The ps4 is womping on the competition by comparison, but xbone sales are also incredibly impressive. Both have had massive outings and have had have enjoyed several months of strong sales so far.
I think earlier when someone said feeling the heat is the best way to describe it. They are not in trouble, but they know they have a lot of ground to make up and they stumbled out of the gate compared to the PS4. They will turn it around though. Last gen the roles were reversed and it came down to a very close amount of systems sold. I see this generation ending very similarly.
No it isn't in trouble, but I don't think it is a run away success like they suspected it to be.
