Europe foots the X-Box bill for Microsoft | |

It's no great secret that most of the gaming industry views Europe as something of an afterthought, despite the fact that we're already the world's second biggest market for video games and still growing fast. The latest company to catch flak over this attitude is Microsoft, whose Xbox is (finally) launching in our neck of the woods on March 14th at a price of £299 / €479, compared to the US list price of $299 (£210 / €340) and the recently announced Japanese launch at ¥34,800 (£185 / €300). | ||

| It is a little expensive there! |

| More than a little - but then again if you spending over 300 pounds on a GeForce 4 card why moan about the Xbox cost!!! |

| #5 I agree with most of that - but the playstation 2 right now is too popular to compete with, thus pricing the Xbox at £300 won't help, Nintendo for once, have the right idea. |
