Does the PS3 need a price drop to compete this holiday season?

This about sums it up. The price point is less of a matter during the holiday season since that's when people are actually willing to spend mroe money. It still matters, mind you, just less than usual.

Though a price cut would be really nice; I'd hate to see the PS3 lose to the 360 this holiday season. Plus, even if they lose $150 mil, keep in mind that the market share means more software supports and thus more software sales. It'll definitely soften the blow.
