This shipment arrives after the event, and its still listed at a four hundred dollar price point. Do we actually believe any retailer is smart enough to not slip on this banana peal? Please every price cut has been confirmed by retailer incompetence one to two weeks in advance. I am not buying that they suddenly became brilliant. While the absence of evidence isn't necessarily evidence of absence. There is such a thing as what lawyers like to call circumstantial evidence. You may not be able to convict on that alone, but it should show you where you should be leaning. You cannot just discount something, because it doesn't suit your purposes. Unless you have some evidence even circumstantial of your own. Then what justification do you have to play this down. I really do not understand the absolute fixation with a PS3 price cut. This just isn't very likely to happen. With a recession, Sony losing money, and the console spending its entire cycle in a deep hole, and lest we forget. Sony is in a distant third place facing competition that is profitable. This would have been a very hard sell for all involved. There just isn't any justification for one, and unlike the double slash in year one the console isn't any peril of being pushed from the market. The install base is sufficient to support first party games, and licensing revenue. |
I'm sorry did Sony stand you up on a date or somthing? You seem to have an unbridled anger and vhelemence twoards them.
The op is trying to dash hopes about a post E3 price cut. But there are no hopes to be dashed. Everyone who assumes that PS3 would get a price cut assumes that it would come during the back to school/holiday season. September or october area.
So relax, take a chill pill and I'll have sony send you a text or somthing.
