41k+ lead and 360 beating PS3 in Japan!

I am going to cherish this moment, because it will probably be one of the last for a good year, if not forever, that MS will be able to grab such a big lead for a week.

I think this was more proof then anything if anyone ever doubted it; that price was the major factor the PS3 struggled for so long. Now that the price is the same as the 360's (if your not counting the arcade of course) things are going to be a lot different from here on out.

Take heart - the same thing happened last year when Sony dropped their price by $100. It's mid August, Microsoft likes to grab attention close to the holidays. Sony's sales will skyrocket for a few months, and then MS will come raging back for Christmas.

didnt sony simply eliminate a SKU and keep entry price the same at $399 last year? Thats not a price cut thats adding value to the price of the system by making it an 80GB for $399.

People are underestimating big time what the sub $300 playstation 3 will do worldwide. big time.
