Default Xbox European Sales Revealed

Microsoft Press Release:
Quote:
Microsoft has revealed the selling of 100,000 Xbox consoles in Europe in two weeks.
Obviously this is not the numbers I was looking for. Now Angrist has permission to laugh out of control.

DAmn thats foking crap! is that really right or is that just the UK or some thing cuss after the first day of sales they said the UK had sold 48,000 units by it's self. Oh well looks like Sony's hold on the world is still there.

Bond, I can already see the fanboy vultures circling this thread. I do believe we are in for quite a few more posts taking joy in the misfortune of others.

Hmmm I don't think this is true either, especially since I haven't seen this on any Xbox sites . Damn this April Fool's garbage .

It's too bad Angrist didn't see this thread before many of you guessed it was April Fool's. Oh well...

Meh. Even if they onbly sold that many, who cares. Xbox is still doing very well in North America. Some things just aren't meant to be.

I was going to say...it hasn't been two weeks yet...

And the link Bond provided went to Microsoft.com, not some news article.

That was a good one, though, Bond. You had me for a few seconds.

Well, I had to provide something of a link, and I didn't think people would click on it so Microsoft.com worked for me.

Hey, Strangler! There's a topic about you in the Staff Forum. I saw it right before I retired. Unfortunately, you can't see this one because you're not part of the staff.
