Its a joke when you lower your console $50 - $70 and it doesnt even double the sales.
But no Sony's price drop wasn't desperate. They released a new SKU to take the 599 model's place didnt they? yep the 80GB is now in place and the 60 is being phased out like the 20GB model was.
I think the true price drop will happen in November when the PS3 turns 1 in the USA and Japan or when the 60GB is sold out, whichever comes first. All I know is that the 80GB model will sell faster then the 60GB one at $499 even without Motorstorm just because its a larger HDD and people want more storage space hence why M$ released the elite and 120GB HDD.
