NJ5@ In order to be profitable they still need a level of market share , if the XBOX 360 was to start outselling the PS3 by large margins then it may force Sony's hand.
I think the success of the 360 will be the determining factor of a price drop , keep in mind though that the 360's price drop did nothing to damage PS3 sales in europe , it only stopped the 360 from becoming irrelevant. A price drop would make the 360 more competetive but then I don't think it would affect PS3 sales too much.
Only time will tell really.
