The PS3 wont outsell the 360 in America after the pricecut... maybe for a little while... but it isnt the product if choice in america.

Count out a $299 PS3 at your own peril. You can quote me on this: The only way the 360 will outsell the PS3 after a price cut is with a huge game launch or an equivalent price cut (the 60GB going down to $200).

 

Given that the Xbox 360 is profitable if you consider this analysis. Its a given that Microsoft could do an identical price cut if they chose and cut $100 off the premium SKU. Also its not a given if Sony would and could do the same, they only recently posted a profit off the entire SCE division and thats with profit from at least the PS2 propping up the numbers.
