The gadgety folks over at Engadget just posted a scan of UK retailer Woolworths' holiday catalog where it shows some new cheapified Xbox 360 prices. The holiday catalog lists Arcades for £129, Pros for £169 and Elites for £229 which is quite the nice savings from the current £159, £199 and £259 pricing.

Currently, Woolworths is in a heated retail battle to gain gaming marketshare, so for the time being we're attributing these cheaper console prices to a Woolworth driven price cut rather than an official European price cut from Microsoft. That said, North America just saw a price reduction and it seems to be paying off. Maybe MS should think about a 360 price adjustment for our friends in Europe this holiday season.
