| Kyros said: no it isn't. When the Ps3 is at 200$ we will know reasonably well which system will finish second in the United States. Not before. |
Why do people keep jumping on this.... just because last generation 70% (or whatever) of consoles sold below that, doesn't mean it will this time.... in fact the high starting points of the two HD consoles and the continued success of the Wii without a price cut will almost ensure that won't happen.
PS3 is currently at $399... and there are no plans to drop that this fiscal year.... so why do people think it is going to drop $200 any time soon.... My guess would be there is another price drop in maybe a years time from now... if Sony are "generous" to you it could be another $100 off.
That means it's almost 2010, and the console is still $300.... best case scenario in terms of price loweing is that it will finally be $200 by 2011 (or very late 2010)... so what? suddenly PS3 will skyrocket and quadruple it's total sales? yeah sure.
