elite: $299.99 with increased HD space of 200-250 GB. That way it matches the premium price of the PS3 while having the HD space to justify its premium price.

 

I don't see how that is a counter at all.  It will be the same price as a PS3 which has blu ray so PS3 would be by far the better value for money.  I am yet to see the benefit of having a substantial hard drive in 360.  Unlike the PS3 it is not as if you can just transfer your media files on to it (thank goodness i did not make the mistake of getting an elite instead of premium).  Only use is for people who download HD movies alot but those who would download over 120gb of movies are a very limited bunch (if such a bunch even exists). 

 

Since NXE we have had the ability to install games to the hard drive so that does give a little use to the bigger hard drive.  I don't see the need for a larger hard drive however, there are only so many games you need to install at the same time.

 

I would imagine instead of trying to cut the price by a lot M$ would actually make a small cut and then start bundling some good games with the console.  Like Halo3 or Gears.  This would give it a better draw than just a simple price cut, IMO.  Either way I wouldn't expect a knee jerk responce from M$.  They probably already have a plan ready for when the time comes.
