360 and PS3 SKUs slashed in price by supermarket giant
Hot on the heels of the FIFA ’09 price battle, Asda has slashed the price of Pro Evolution Soccer 2009 to just £27 on Xbox 360 and PS3.
The supermarket chain is also giving copies of the PS3 version away with every PlayStation 3 console bought.
Elsewhere, Blockbuster has followed its FIFA offer with a similar deal for Pro Evo. The PS3 and 360 SKUs are available for £34.99 and consumers will receive a free football with every order. Meanwhile, Tesco is selling the game for £34.71 on both PS3 and 360, with Shopto.net offering both games for £32.99.
Earlier this month, Morrisons sold FIFA ’09 on PS3 for £25. However, the grocery giant has told MCV that there won’t be a similar deal for PES.
“There is not going to be a similar promotion for Pro Evo,” said a spokesperson. “We’re selling the game for £39.99.”
