Today Asda started selling the worlds most popular gaming console the Playstation2 for a bargain £49. The slimline console went on sale this morning and has been flying off the shelves as it more than half price to most of its competitors.
What was even more exciting was Play.com reduced the price of the Xbox 360 Core system to £150 last night. Considering that this is a next generation console, what a bargain. Hopefully Asda will push the retailers into a full scale war and all of us can bag up the goodies.
One thought on “Are we on the verge of a console price war? PS2 for £49”
looks like Play may have made an error as it seems to be showing £199 now?
I also checked on Cubalaya.co.uk and it looks like this is the best price available right now…

Overall prices are definitely coming down and with the launch of the PS3 next month things can only get better for us gamers
