By the time the offer is valid only in the United States, but in the past Microsoft has hinted that there are plans to bring it to Europe . Starting from the beginning of the year, in fact, Microsoft began offering U.S. Xbox 360, Kinect and Xbox Live Gold subscription with a new payment model based on the contract.
You have to pay $ 99 just to get the console and then a subscription of $ 14 for a two-year contract. To take advantage of the initiative, initially, you had to travel to the Microsoft Store, but then the promotion has been extended to shops chain Best Buy and GameStop.
Microsoft announces new plans now that contracts for Xbox will be launched from October 28, while adding the chain Toys R Us and Walmart to partner in the initiative.
Will offer three types of payment: Xbox 360 with internal memory of 4 GB and Kinect for $ 99.99 and the subscription of $ 14 for 24 months Xbox 360 Hard Disk 250 GB for $ 99.99 and always the subscription of $ 14 for 24 months, and Xbox 360 with a hard disk of 250 GB and Kinect for $ 149.99 and the usual subscription. The latter offer is available for a limited period of time.
Matt Barlow, general manager for Microsoft's interactive entertainment marketing, recently said that the subscription model similar to that used for smartphones is critical to the business Xbox 360.
Xbox 360 is the best-selling console in the U.S. for more than 20 months. In all likelihood, this type of promotion has helped to achieve these sales results.
