New pictures of Xbox 360 console packaging allegedly from GameStop have been spread around and seem to confirm rumors that suggest Microsoft is dumping the Xbox 360 Pro model. The picture, shown below, shows an Xbox 360 Arcade box (left) compared to a newer box (right), with the newer box only showing the Xbox 360 Arcade, and Xbox 360 Elite versions of the console.
So if Microsoft is indeed shrinking its Xbox 360 console packs from three to two, it would seem very likely that it plans to re-adjust the Xbox 360 Elite price as well. Such a price cut soon would be advisable as Sony's launch of a new slimmer PS3 model doesn't appear to be in the distant future.
