LOL, that's true..but I really think MS wants to avoid similar prices for the two consoles. They know Sony will destroy them if they do - why do you think the Arcade came down to $200? The PS3 was more expensive and outselling them for a long time..a $200 price difference is major, and is the only thing that changed the momentum in the first place. I'm not saying they don't have a trick up their sleeve..I just hope it isn't to bundle extra stuff with it, because I don't really see that helping them as much.

PS3 more expensive?  Correct.

PS3 outselling 360 for a long time?  Incorrect.  In 2008, of the 12 months of the year the PS3 outsold the 360 for around/about 7 of them worldwide.  Considering the total number of months that both were on sale, that does not constitute a long time.  If so, then the 360 has outsold the PS3 for a VERY long time.

$200 price difference?  Only if you count the Arcade SKU, which statitistics have shown accounts for around 50% of 360 sales.  Pro and Elite models have sold really well too.
