Original Xbox One sale drops the UK price to £180
When the first Xbox One S bundles hit the UK in late September, they were so aggressively priced that the original One looked ready for immediate retirement. But the console has one last hurrah in store. Microsoft announced this morning the “biggest ever sale” of original Xbox One gear, with bundles starting at £180 for a 500GB box and one game. That’s on Microsoft’s store, anyway, but similar discounts can be found at other retailers like Amazon and Tesco (no reaction from GAME currently).
We’re sure there are plenty of other retailers that have brought down their prices, or will in the near future, so have a hunt around. The Xbox One might not have the newer model’s 4K Blu-ray drive, better gamepad and slim figure, but when you can put a console under the Christmas tree for under £200, those seem like fair enough compromises. Better hurry up, though — stocks are likely to run out soon enough.
