GZ: A closer look at Microsoft's Xbox 360 price cut announcements may unearth the reality that there's actually been a price increase.
Today Microsoft announced a price-cut on the Xbox 360 Elite to £199/EUR249 and a price increase for the Arcade model to £159/EUR199 in the UK and Europe. The 60GB Pro model is to be discontinued.
We've already touched upon Microsoft's increase of the Arcade price from £129 to £159, which the company has explained will "offset currency exchange rate fluctuations which have impacted us in local market conditions." That price increase is transparently obvious, but a price increase could be seen elsewhere.

force unleashed is a great game. Thankfully the 360 version is bc on the XBO/Series. It looks and plays even better than on original hardware.
A true classic. Recently I was experimenting with injecting ray tracing into this game using nvidia’s SSRTGI. The results were pretty slick!

Microsoft are just batting a hundred. Can they screw up anymore? Wait, don’t answer that.
Yup UK has been done over.
We better get amazing bundles = or else!
A price increase you say!
Surely MS can keep the price as it is and soak up the exchange rate issues itself for a while - they are still making billions rite?
Dont think ive ever known of a piece of gaming equipment to go up in price by this amount - or any t.v, home entertainment electronic.
