I think they took the middle road on the price cut, they basically had 2 choices:
1) Cut the price at the end of summer, increases sales + boost from Halo, BS gets hardware moving again, but leaves a lot of potential money on the table from consoles that would've sold anyways.
2) Cut the price sometime in November, but might not get as big a boost from their lineup as expected.
Buy doing half a price cut (I consider it a $50 cut since most people would buy the premium), they are splitting the difference and can still do another price cut in November if they need to.
