360 Price Cuts Also Looming For UK Market

British sites are reporting that, ahead of an expected announcement later this week, Microsoft are to copy the rumoured North American moves by implementing both a price cut and a lineup shuffle for their range of 360 consoles.

MCV say that retailers across Britain are being told they can’t order any/many existing 360 consoles, while VG247 go a little further and provide details, with the 60GB Pro to be discontinued (as expected) and the Elite to be dropped from £240 to £200. Which, incidentally, is the same price as a Wii.

I think its in regards to the ‘Pro’ model, which is being phased out.

This isnt xbox 360 lite foreshadowing
