Ok, the only way I can even imagine this happening is this.

1. 360 premium stay >= $300
2. A PS3 sku @ $300 (40GB) and @450 (80GB)
3. MGS4 and Killzone 2 released. (FF13 given a solid midyear 2008 date)
4. 1 and 2 and one of the games in 3 all happen by xmas.

Other than this. Nope. Not gonna happen.

 

Not that hard. One game could seriously drive sales this year, we will see how Uncharted and UT3 do. Also look at the releases in early 08, very stacked.

kaz is saying it because he knows when and how much the price cut will be. A low cots entry PS3 at $350 my guess, 80gig $400(2008) and a big ass 180 gig +game bundle for $500

Uhm, first of all the fact that you seem to think the PS3 could get a $150 price cut this year is...well insane. But you take it a step further when you say that you think in 2008 when they lower the 80GB model they are gonna drop it $200 instead of the $100 everyone else is expecting which is also insane. 

I would be very interested to know how you think Sony could finance such an endeavor and why you think they would be willing to shovel that much money into the console right now.
