dallas said: Don't beleive it. Why would Sony announce a price cut until it was ready to make a decision to cut the prices? They won't b/c the people that would have bought a more expensive PS3, sooner would instead choose to wait. So no, they will keep saying this, until we read in kotaku that Sony has announced a price cut.
Nobody said you had to believe Sony, I wouldn't. And yes it's obvious that pre-announcing a price cut would be suicide, I don't think Sony is that stupid. I'm just pointing to Sony's official stance instead of speculating.
Stromprophet said: Sony can say whatever they want. The fact is, WHEN 360 price cuts they are not really gonna have a choice. They compete for a lot of the same market that 360 does. 360 IS price cutting this year, that's a fact.
I agree if the 360 drops, it will force Sony's hand and they will probably have to drop their price as well. But it is not a fact that MS will drop their price, did I miss some press release? Is MS that stupid to pre-announce a price cut. I think it is likely there will be a 360 price cut sometime this year, it would make sense to try and undercut your competitors if you can. But I don't think it's a fact. Stromprophet, as someone who seems to be clamoring for evidence this entire thread where is yours to back up your fact.
Stromprophet said: I just don't think a price cut is as far away as you all do because of outside circumstances that are going to force a price cut.
I think you are in the majority of people, both Sony lovers and Sony haters are expecting a price cut from Sony soon within the next year and a half. They may be forced to by a 360 cut, or they may have to do it to try and stimulate sales.
