Xbox 360 sales predictably spike in UK after price drop

Joystiq - September 1, 2009


Submitted by afsplat (34) at 2:06PM PST on September 1, 2009

With Sony's PS3 Slim model expected to hit the region this week, it'll be interesting to compare the percentage increase in sales for both consoles. We'd prefer actual sales numbers instead of percentages, but that's apparently not happening.
