Further to last night's report of 48,000 Xbox sales in the UK, MCV's German edition is reporting that 10,000 units were sold across the country during its first weekend. PlayStation 2 sold roughly 70,000 units during the same time period following its launch in November 2000. Several German retailers reportedly discounted the Xbox from its starting price of €479 to €399 when it failed to sell late last week. Microsoft is expected to announce its figures for the whole of Europe later this week. Related Feature - Ch€ap Xboxes in Germany!
