Xbox 360 Completely Absent from Toys R Us Catalog in Spain

Xboxist.com writes:

"Millions of kids all over Europe today received their mega holiday Toys R Us holiday catalogs in the mail. While flipping through its pages looking for items to fill out their wish lists to Santa, there is one thing they won't be able to do - find any information about Microsoft's Xbox 360. We eagerly grabbed our catalog here in Spain when it arrived, and we noticed something strange in the video game section. While Sony has a lot of coverage, there is not a single mention of Microsoft's console or its games."

Appearing in the Toys R Us catalog is actually a pretty big deal. Millions of kids use those books to pick out what their xmas presents will be. This is very, very bad for Microsoft in Europe and very good for Sony.

I wonder how much space the Xbox 360 got in America?

Enough is enough! I have had it with these mother******* RROD's on the mother******* 360's!

when advertisers would leave the ps3 out of flyers sometimes and have 2 pages for the 360 and i would say to myself "Huh...what the hell wheres the ps3 stuff"

vhero5281d ago

Would be a good deal if Sony did a deal with toys r us but even if they havn't it makes sense after all the complaints they had with customers returning 360's. Especially since Toys R Us give extended warranty on consoles.

Before you take away my bubbles...
think of the story last week where none of the kids in the survey said they wanted an XBox for Christmas. Why would Toys R Us waste money on advertising stuff kids don't want.

Guys got a point thats probably why the psp go not in there too

gtamike1235282d ago

Maybe cause people keep returning it cause of Red Ring of Death.

Nathan Drake25281d ago

clinker5281d ago

The PSP is in the catalog, just not the PSP Go.

Remembering Medal Of Honor: The Forgotten Master Of WW2 Games

Ibrahim from eXputer: "The Medal of Honor franchise was once the crown jewel of FPS war games, later defeated by the tides of time and poor development."

They tried to turn it into Call of Duty and it killed it off. They should reboot it and go back to it's roots. But they'd ruin it with online-only/multiplayer style bullshit so why bother? I have very fond memories of these games, but this series can stay dead as far as I'm concerned.

Was literally just thinking of this game the other week with the secret nut cracker mission and the shooting Bismarck dog lmao. Loved these games as a kid

Strictly for the campaign

I have fond memories of playing the Medal of Honor Breakthrough MP Demo. It had two maps and custom servers. Living on campus, I had it downloaded on one of the PC Lab servers so I could access it on any computer at the university. Joined a clan and made friends that I still keep in touch with today.
