Things will be different in 2011 compared to 2009.

Smaller Pricecut
Competition pricecuts as well, MS will match pricecut or more, Nintendo has already cut price
No big franchises still coming
Nearing the end of the generation.

We don't know how big the price cut will be.  If it is $100 again, that would be a larger percentage cut that last time. 

Nintendo cut their price in 2009 around the same time as the PS3, Microsoft also cut the price of the elite to $300 as well as discounting the pro to clear its stock.

The big exclusive in holiday 2009 was Uncharted 2.  The big exclusive in holiday 2011 is Uncharted 3.  Japan got FFXIII in late 2009, it seems they might get FFXIII-2 in late 2011.

Seems pretty similar to me.
