| BHR-3 said: if u look at recent sales u'll c that if there were no arcade skus ps3 vs 360 sales would be pretty damn close since the arcade is 200$ cheaper than the cheapest ps3 idk the exact ratio for arcade pro and elite but im pretty sure it's bout 50% arcade the other 50% are pro and elites ps3 would outsell 360 ww if a 299 sku or 299 80g were to come out march resulting in a "turn around" (because the cheapest ps3 would only be 100$ off of the arcade sku) until or if MS cuts prices in Sept i doubt it would cut it march-august 09 if a 50$ MS price cut were to happen in fall 09 sony would have to cut it by 50 also to continue to outsell it for the rest of 09

And the move from Sony in 2007 with the 40gb version wasn't desperate? Cutting away functions like SACD, 2 usb ports, PS2 BC........?
And if Sony cuts price in 2009......isn't that being desperate since thay are the one being outsold right now?
Looking at economy Sonys moves can be considerd most desperate since they are the one creating least money on the next-gen machine. At the end of the year the machine will have gathered around 4 billion in just sale losses.
You are tight that each company have got great boosts with price cut and that is likely to continue for both of them, none of them are being desperate but the competition is very hard and I donät think anyone often wished the fast pace pricedrop.
Predictions for 2009:
360: 39-42 PS3: 31-34 Wii: 67-70
Future projection
Wii will hit 100 million before christmas 2010 (made december 2008)
NDS Family will have sold and shipped more then PS2 at the end of 2009 (made january 2009)
