A price cut could really help out PS3 sales. It is currently the most expensive console out of the three.

The PS3 is the most expensive console out of the 3 because it costs the most to produce, i don't see why sony should cut the Price of the PS3 unless the unit cost with the introduction of a new superslim is less than the $200 magical barrier everyone wants. With their current financials they should be happy to sell 12million consoles all at a profit than 14-15million all at a $10-20 loss. Also i doubt a 360 price cut (Unless its the kinect bundle massively discounted) would lead to any meaninfull increase in sales ouside the USA, as despite what some people on here may believe USA doesn't =The world. Also i only think Halo 4 will only sell 8.5million lifetime with it being this late in the cycle and with COD Black ops 2 releasing 3 days later.    

Really? I'd be willing to be that Halo 4 will reach 8.5 million by Jan 1, 2014 (AKA about 1 year, 2 months after release)

I think with the current downtrend in software sales with many games posting really dissapointing sales and the fact Halo 4 comes out only 3 days before BLOPS then some previous halo fans will instead buy BLOPS. Its unlikely that people would buy two heavily multiplayer games only 3 days apart, so i think the bulk of that prediction comes from the lower first week sales.

Why would any Halo fan buy Black Ops 2 over Halo 4 especially given how good Halo 4 looks like. And Battlefield 3 and MW3 proved that you can have two FPS's very near to each other and both still sell more than the previous installment. I'd be extremely surprised if Halo 4 doesn't get to 10 million.
