CrazzyMan said: @Squilliam, after some time, GC was selling for 99$, BUT this price didn`t help. x360 is already a CHEAP console. The pricecut, wont help much, since it`s already at MASS market price.
While, PS3 is yet to enter to that 299$ mass market price. Also, PS3 game base is growing fatser, than x360. that`s why PS3 will be a MUST HAVE console. It will have too MANY GREAT AAA games, to be ignored. |
You're making some serious assumptions here. Theres no assurance than the PS3 will reach the $299 price point this year. Its what you would like to happen, but its not assured that it will happen. Also even if the PS3 reaches $299 theres always the extremely likely possibility that the Xbox 360 will reach the $149 and $199 price points at the same time. A $299 PS3 is relatively more expensive than a $199 Premium than it is now at the current prices.

Aren't you doing the same thing? LOL!

Microsoft stated that they wanted to secure their second place position. I have seen no such specific statements from Sony to contradict such a statement. Also when they are making money its easier to believe that they can afford a price cut, especially compared to a company which hasn't made any money so far this generation.

But you still made an assumptions. We'll have to wait and see, right?
We never know maybe by that time, PS3 overtook 360 already and gain profit at the same time or the 360 increased the gap by 15-18 million.
EDIT: I am talking about the worlwide sales not American sales.

You're using poor english! But yeah we still do have to wait and see. Though I think my position is more sane than most who wear PS3 related items in their signatures.
Though local sales do infer local support, for example the PS2 is getting far more support in Japan than any other country for example. So a console could be pulled from one market hypothetically but not another.

English is not my native language. Sorry for the poor english. Did I use wrong grammars? I would appreciate it if you correct me for my wrong grammar.
OT: I agree (bold part) but it still early to make an assumptions that PS3 will be discontinued before 2012 in America. I believe that there is still alot people that doesn't have a PS3 or a 360 or a Wii.
Great games and a pricecut will do wonders for the PS3.
