Yeah, it doesn't make much sense. Question is if Microsoft thinks Xbox will appeal only to hardcore gamers in Europe and to a broader consumer segment in other markets. I belive the appeal to gamers regarding a certain system is similar between European and American markets, but perhaps not so for the Japanese/Asian market. Anyways Microsoft is screwing the European consumers.
