The PS3 is now down to 119k... this when one (incredibly) thought it would never drop below 250k again and some more voiced staying above 200k was possible. Even sensible fans would have not believed a drop to 119k possible. The PS3 is currently only tracking up by 20% on 2009, this means a massive drop off soon. If the current trend continues then by the end of August it will be around 1.6m up on 2009. 1m of this will evaporate during September and October... at least. I dont think the PS3 performance this year is as good as some think.

Based on my calculations thats actually a weaker response from the price drop than there was to $400. I suspect they have passed the point of diminishing returns and any successive price cuts will be weaker in the mid term (5-6 months vs same time previous year old price). I suspect we've already passed that magic price point barrier for all consoles and perhaps because of this we may not see an Xbox 360 price cut.

(no offense lol)
Tease.
