| Squilliam said: I did say plausible, I didn't say they would or wouldn't. In any case, if they cut the price it would likely not have a significant effect on their bottom line because the material, royalty, production, plant costs which are directly proportional to Xbox 360 production are lower than the overall revenue they receive. I do see a lot of people substituting their own personal beliefs and desires for the goals and whatever Microsoft has. A completely seperate question is this; is it likely that Microsoft would cut the price once more this year given their explicit statements earlier that they wished to retain a solid hold on 2nd place for this console generation? |
Microsoft would still hold on to 2nd place if their cut came in 2010 rather than 2009; so it sounds like you're doing a little of this 'substituting' yourself there, what with the way you loaded that final question to point towards a pricecut in 2009.
