Xbox 360 Launches In Europe

Posted by Zonk on Friday December 2, 2005 @05:11AM from the next-gen-old-country dept.

The Xbox 360 has launched in Europe, to similarly high demand as in the U.S. The BBC has details on the long lines and consumer reaction, and Next Generation has some information from Microsoft on how the launch is going. From the BBC article: "The technology giant has been forced to defend itself against accusations it has failed to provide enough consoles ahead of Christmas. Some 300,000 Xbox 360s are likely to be available for Friday's European launch, though demand is expected to far exceed this."

I wonder what biased Slashdotters would say if Nintendo fakes a shortage of Nintendo Revolution when they launch time approaches.

My guess is that the M$-bashers would believe there really was a shortage of Revolution (since Nintendo is such an awesome company and they aren't some evil corporation, right?).

Why do Slashdotters (Especially those M$-bashers) have to be so god-damned biased????

YES WE GET THAT YOU DON'T LIKE MICROSOFT.

Give a rest people.
