Best of luck... I'd think having sale prices before or during black friday would be better but a sale is a sale. Anyone who has been holding out will likely jump in.

Although, I'd also think anyone who was looking to buy a gaming system this holiday has already gotten it. So this could be too little too late. We'll see at the end of the year if this had any impact (pos/neg).

It still won't help unfortunately

GamerRN144d ago

Why not? A discount in a great gaming machine right before holidays is perfect to get people involved and clear out inventory

recoctimocassirnff144d ago (Edited 144d ago )

It will help a bit, unfortunately.

Parents looking to buy gifts this season that don't know any better and don't have time to do their research will be gipped into getting this deal.

For Christmas? It’s discounted because it isn’t selling.

BeHunted145d ago

That's like saying PS5 discounted because it's not selling.

BehindTheRows145d ago

Difference is PS5 IS selling, while Xbox is down by quite a large percentage from last year. And it will only get worse when the padding of the holidays is over!

Barlos144d ago

Yeah, but in the case of Xbox it's actually true.

I think the rumor report about the next Xbox releasing before the PS6 in 2026 might be true. Microsoft knows its the only chance they have

Series s £209.

Practically giving them away

It’s the Gillette razor business model.

Give the Handel for free/cheap then charge extortionate amounts for blades

Chris12144d ago

Using your own analogy doesn't that mean Sony are charging an extortionate amount for the handles and an extortionate amount for the blades?

purple101144d ago (Edited 144d ago )

series s digital only, have to buy games at the store prices. I buy my games on ebay half price, about a month or two after release, I then put them back on eBay (or sometimes keep) and get almost all the value back, so I pay about between £15 to £20 overall per game. except for cod, and GT7, which I've kept to play regularly.

ocelot07144d ago

Look at the second hand market. S can be had for about £120.

Barlos144d ago

Very good, very tempting.

If I had the room (and the time) for another games console I'd dive in, but I don't even have enough time for my PS5 and steam deck as it is, so I don't want to add another machine to the mix.

TMNT Arcade: Wrath of the Mutants Xbox Series X Review – Half Shelled - The Koalition

Adam Vale of The Koalition writes: So based on the response that I received from friends and fellow online gamers, it appears a large majority of people were not only unaware of this game being in arcades but that a port was also in the works for all current consoles. I must admit that I was also late to the party on this one, but not by much.

Hopefully they won't have any trouble delivering 60fps on consoles then.
