Everywhere in the world, the idea of business is to sell. A popular way to sell more is to drop the cost of somthing you're offering. Well, someone needs to remind Microsoft's European Division of that.
In Britain, the price has actually been increased on the cost of the 360 console. The reason? The british pound (their common unit of currency) has dropped in value, compaired to the Euro (Europe's common unit of currency).
By equivilance, the cost is increased by $50 in U.S.D. currency. Maybe it'll be cheaper to import them into Britain from a nearby country than buying it locally.
