Why is the answer to everything always a price cut? Its like noone expects that Sony can actually do anything to raise the appeal of the console without first cutting the price. A lot of people seem to be acting like teens as if the console is already unaffordable when the target market is mainly the 18-35 range who have jobs and an income. Anyone who can afford to have an HD TV can afford to own a PS3. The reason more people aint buying is because Sony hasn't convinced enough people that the PS3 is worth $299.

It's not just about cutting the price as you're putting it. It's about cutting it to a COMPETITIVE price.

The Xbox 360 is $299 for its main SKU

The Xbox 360 average selling price was $269

The PS3 is $299 for its main SKU

The PS3 ASP was something like $315

Whats uncompetitive about that price?

that there's is a 199 sku on the market and 299 has never ever ever ever in the history of ever have been a mass market price.
