so what happens next year when Sony drops the price?

MSFT will wait for a few months and then drop the price too.

 

 

can they afford it?

 

Well, if you look at the balance sheets then they are in a better position to do so than Sony. Sony is going to get crushed this holiday season, not just from the PS3 but just about everything they sell.

 

 

come on, they are still making money on most of their bussness and so far, PS3 is selling even more than their own expectation also, a price cut is a lot more effective when u are selling a expensive item a price cut on the xbox360 will be less effective : in a way : it is already very cheap. While on PS3, considering the brandname, the BR player and the exclusives games ...

 

So far is the key... So far meant before the total economic collapse.

If you hadn't noticed, the economy has melted to into a steaming pile of goo since September. Circuit City has declared bankruptcy and Best Buy has said this will season will be nothing short of terrible. And you think this won't be highly detrimental to Sony?
