I personally don’t feel that the holiday season is right around the corner, but Microsoft feels that and seems anxious to make its customers who will be looking to purchase gifts to go for its gaming consoles. That’s why the company decided to cut prices of the Xbox 360 Elite, Xbox 360 Pro and Xbox 360 Arcade.
According to the latest press release from Microsoft, you’ll be able to get the consoles for lower prices dropped by $100. Suggested retail prices will be of $299.99 for the Xbox 360 Elite console, $249.99 for the Xbox 360 Pro and $199.99 for the Xbox 360 Arcade console.

These good news are meant to offer gamers more entertainment for the lowest prices, Xbox 360 allowing you to play hundreds of games, watch TV shows and movies, view photos, listen to music and access Facebook and Twitter. And, if you haven’t heard yet, all the Xbox 360 consoles sold now will support Project Natal controller-free gaming.

“With the holiday season right around the corner, it’s already time to start looking for entertainment and gifts that everyone will enjoy,” said Shane Kim, corporate vice president of strategy and business development for the Interactive Entertainment Business at Microsoft Corp. “If you’re looking for deep experiences that don’t require deep pockets, now is the time to purchase an Xbox 360. We’ve got the best games, a vast library of TV shows and movies, new music experiences, more ways to connect friends and family, and so much more on the horizon including ‘Project Natal’ — no controller required.”
