BTW, All you whiners claiming that the PS3 price cut was just a "CLEARANCE", then what is this? Aren't they clearing out current models so that they can release the Falcon model? Or is this different because it's NOT Sony?

If the 80GB model comes out at the same price as the 60GB, then that's a price cut.

 From what I can tell, MS isn't going to clearance the current 360s with a price cut and then re-introduce Falcon at the original price.  The price drop is going to stay when the  new model comes out.

The 80gb model has motorstorm and will likely be released alone for $499.99, if not stay bundled with motorstorm. And the falcon is not a new model, its a silver 360 with the 65nm chip so it would catch less heat. The system will come with the same 20gb HDD, and the ps3 will come with a larger 80gb if you were to compare it to the 60gb as well as bring a game for the price of $599.99,which to me is a price cut.
