THE Xbox 360 games console has been slashed to its lowest ever price.
Two weeks after Microsoft cut the cost of its machine, supermarket Sainsbury's has axed a further £30 off the basic arcade version to £99.97.

It is also reducing Nintendo's Wii console by the same amount to £149.97. The reductions run until October 12. A spokesman said: "Games are one of our fastest-growing products."

Neil Long, editor of games industry magazine MCV, added: "This marks the most ambitious move yet in the price wars. Gamers would be well advised to snap these up now."


Personally If I was to invest in a console i'd buy another PS3 but still - its good to see the prices coming down

I would rather pay more for my xbox and have a console that doesnt die on me, and doesnt sound like a ****ing jet engine. I have some great games on my xbox but they just don't get played due to the noise that thing pumps out.

Forget about gaming at night, you have to have the volume so high to hear dialogue that you wake up your entire house and your neighbours.

Please microsoft fix these issues you plonkers !

I love my XBox too but wouldn't dream of watching movies on it because of that darn noise. I'm waiting for it to blow up any day now...

Yes it's prone to exploding, yes it's noisy, yes Xbox Live is full of tiny, pathetic, 5-year-old Americans, but I love it anyway. And at this price, you can't go wrong with the games on offer.
