A little push in Europe by way of a price cut and this would have happened.

Could you change the record, please? It gets really tireome that every post of yours ends with "pricecut"

Here is a little info about "pricecuts" - looking at prices (which include all store margins and taxes, start of December prices - current prices):

PS3 160G $229 - $259

PS3 320G Move bundle $289 - $329

PS3 320G Plain Silver box $333

XBox 250G bundle (incl. 2-3 games) $199 - $199

XBox 250G Kinect bundle (Box, Kinect, 3 games, 3month free Live) $289 - $259

Standalone Kinect bundle $139 - $99

As you can see, PS3 prices actually INcreased, while XBox stuff is sold at a (considerable) loss to MS. No surprise that more XBoxes are sold than PS3s currently over here.

1st off no doubt MS has been working more with retailers in the US giving them incentives to promote and the 360.
2nd Kowenicki was referring to Europe anyway.
3rd Where did you get this information. Although the 360 has been far more promoted the PS3 has had discounts as well and I cant recall anywhere that the PS3 160GB had its price raised to $259.99.



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.
