    good news. Although sony dropped the price first and microsoft followed.

    Console war taken to the next level: hot on the heels of the PS2 price drop, Xbox is now £40 cheaper


    Within moments of our speculation that Microsoft may be dropping the price of Xbox to mirror the PS2 price cut to £169.99, then Microsoft announce that, yes, Xbox will drop in price to £159.99.

    The cut - down £40 from £199.99 - is the third price drop since Xbox was launched in the UK eight months ago and represents a reduction of almost 50% on its initial retail price of £299.99.

    As per the PS2 reduction, the new Xbox price will come into effect from this Friday (30 August).

    sounds good to me, i already have a playstation, and i dont really want an xbox to play games on becuase i dont like it, what I am interested in is the DivX player you can download :/.

    Where is best place to buy?

Erm, and I think it comes down to a choice between 'The League Against Salivating Monsters' or my own personal preference, which is 'The Committee for the Liberation and Integration of Terrifying Organisms and their Rehabilitation Into Society'. Erm, one drawback with that - the abbreviation is 'CLITORIS'." - Rimmer - Polymorph
