| Dodece said: I wonder if the community understands that this is pretty damning evidence that a price cut is not coming. The original poster made a point even if you did not comprehend it. 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. |
1. Evidence? Since when limited editions bundles are evidence of anything? Were the GTA4 360 bundles evidence of a 360 pricecut not happening?
2. That doesn't mean the price-cut is not coming LATER, as in when this LIMITED edition is out of stock....
3. lol. sorry, irreleavent and see point 2.
4. My thoughts exactly, why do you care so much?
5. Obvious, old news.
6. Oh, you mean the Wii, right?
7. Year one, that's 2007 right? PS3 SKUs reduced from $600 and $500 to $500 and $400 (and still current prices 2 years later) how's that double slash ? And the SKUs priced $100 lower in 2007 were significantly cheaper than the previous SKUs (chipset, hardware parts, BC) are you actually telling us after 2 years and several hardware revisions Sony's been unable to cut the costs of the PS3 so they can price it a little more competitely?
I think you're just playing out your own delusions and wishes, but we knew that without having to read any of your babbling.
