We'll see another price cut in the US after March 31st 2008. (End of the current fiscal year). This will most likely happen during GTA4's Q2 marketing blitz. Since the Falcons are already out and the 65nm GPU's will be out in the summer of 08, I am expecting a drop to $199, $249, $349 price points for the arcade, premium and elite respectively. With an entry price of $199 for GTA4, it would definitely help sales through the summer lulls that historically happen over that period. With Sony at $399 right now and most likely for a while, GTA4 will be quite indicative of where the mainstream consumers will vote with their money.
