I don't agree at all.
I think Sony's tactic with the price cut, was to "push" MS to make a matching price cut - earlier than they liked. Luckily for MS, they didn't get sucked in.
The 360 still has some powerful exclusives coming this holiday season:
- Bioshock, Mass Effect, Halo, PGR, Blue Dragon, Eternal Sonata, etc...
It should also have stronger sales of Madden & NCAA (as shown in this weeks sales) - which is very important to gamers.
MS is just biding their time to announce the price cut at the right time - just before the holiday season starts. That way it will be in the minds of all consumers, and they also want time for the disaster that has been the RRoD to fade.
MS will still easily beat Sony this holiday season (at least 360 > PS3 - probably not PS2/PSP). Halo will sell through the roof.
Its just too early. Sony may have forced some momentum back in their direction - but it won't last long, unless their exclusives (LAIR) blow heads off.
