Xbox 360 Sales Boost over 40%

Following Microsoft’s master plan to cut prices on their Xbox 360 video gaming console across Europe, sales of the system have jumped by forty-percent.

Microsoft cut the pricing on all Xbox 360 models in Europe last week. The Arcade model now costs £159, the Premium model is £199 and the Elite model is £259. -Vnunet.com

Despite this jump in console sales, video game sales have failed to spike in a similar manner.

“That is mainly because the week prior there were big new Xbox 360 releases like Army of Two, Bully and MX vs ATV,” Chart-Track director Dorian Bloch told GamesIndustry.biz.

Speaking of which, Army of Two wasn’t all too great, now, was it?
