At the end of the day a price cut IS a price cut! some stores are always doing deals but these are not RRP prices,
We can get a PS3 in the UK for £249.99 now (tesco), does this mean that an official £249.99 PS3 price drop will not be a REAL price drop then as we can already get it at that price?
Works both ways..... |
What's the major difference though in a $299.99 Elite and a $299.99 Pro? The average customer doesn't go in and ask if one has a 100GB more HDD space, all they see is the price tag. A $299.99 PS3 is different because we don't currently see that price. The average customer will know the difference between a $399.99 PS3 and a $299.99 PS3 obviously, but a $299.99 Eilte and a $299.99 Pro, not likely.
So no, it isn't the same scenario, not matter how we slice it. It's more of a price revision, similar to when the 40GB PS3 was phased out and the 80GB PS3 dropped to the 40GB price. In all practical terms, yes it was a price drop. However, the PS3 was STILL seen as $399.99, not $399.99 with 40 more gigs. And let's remember, there is an Xbox 360 that is already cheaper than $299.99, so it's not a major deal. Just a revision.
Make sense?

The Elite comes with HDMI cables...Don't pretend those are cheap...
|
And like I said, the average Joe doesn't know that. Beyond that, nobody's "pretending" anything.
@ FK: Agreed.
|
Who are these Avarage Joe's you keep talking about...It says it on the box....
|
And what will it do to change the current rate of 360 sales? Again, there is a 360 that is cheaper than $299.99 and one that IS $299.99. It won't make that big of a difference.
Nothing left to say here.

So your whole platform is that an Elite at 299 won't make a difference in xbox 360 sales...gotcha
