The PS3 is really catching up the Xbox 360 in Europe.

I will LOL if that happened!

Get ready to laugh then...  it has been £129.99 since Sept '08... Xmas '09 at £99.99 (1year 2 months later)... why not?

I'd say its a certainty.  Why are you comparing it to the artificially overpriced cash cow that is the PS2??

Think about it... it will be affordable by then for MS and would kill the PS2 and cause a massive blow to the PS3 at the same time....

But MS had 2 price cuts in Europe last year (the first one did fuck all). Meaning they may not be able to afford one this year.

But that isn't automatically the way these things work.  The standardized price of the Xbox 360 will always be cheaper than the PS3, Microsoft may well have made quicker cost reductions than Sony (and there has been some evidence of this) and on top of that, Microsoft isn't losing billions as a company.
