I agree in that situation it is not 150 dollar price cut. Still its quite confusing, did ps3 get price cut or not? from 599 to 399 euro it was new version without ps2 compatiblity and other stuff. Or can we only count price cuts from 399 euro, because it was the same version?


New console versions and price cuts are not as black and white as people want to make them out to be.  I got my original PS3 Fat with backwards compatability for 600 or whatever it was at launch.  I bought my most recent 120gb PS3 for 160 or something a couple years back.  Did the ability to play PS3 games become cheaper as the consoles life went on?  Yes.  Did you get the same or greater value (minus the backwards compatability thing) by buying a cheaper version later?  Yes.  Do you define that as "price cut"?  If so, yes you got a price cut.  If you don't, then you paid less for a cheaper version.
