I strongly doubt Sony will cut the price until holidays 2015. It's not like MS is cutting Xbone price anytime soon too, they already did it three times in the console's first year.

Sony has zero reason to do a price drop right now.

I'm having a tough time remembering the M$ price cuts.  Can you remind me?

I don't know about in the US, but in the UK it's had 3. It was launched at £429, was then cut to £399 (with TF being given away for free), then they released the Kinectless version for £349, and then about a month ago they cut it again to £329. The last price cut put it under the PS4's price.

The removal of Kinect isn't a traditional price cut, but i'd say it's worth listing with the others. A lot of people (such as myself) didn't want a Kinect, so to them it's functionally a price cut (which was MS's intention of removing Kinect).

Sony haven't yet made an official price cut, but i do expect one within the next few months (or at the very least big holiday cuts). Sony were pretty clear that building the PS4's install base is a priority for them. Price cuts aren't just to help boost low sales, they're to maintain high ones or potentially lead to even higher sales. That's a concept many don't seem to understand :/
