So it wouldn't be surprising if they got that chip in the system by the end of the year. If they get that chip in by November, and MS selling 360s like mad (like I expect with the new price point), then it's not out of the question we see another November price cut for Sony. In those last three months of the year, so much software gets sold that console makers can actually afford to take losses on hardware and still show profits for the quarter. Just look Sony's financial results last Christmas season when they showed a profit after the 40gb release. |
Your acting as if they would cut the price by some drastic amount. True if they cut it by $100 that would be insane and sales would diffinatly be increased but whos to say they wont slash it by $50 If they serisouly go from 65-45 (Cell) and 90 - 65 (RSX) I doubt they'd see much loss on a $50 cut.
