I don't have any problem before the christmas period but considering ps4 will be ahead in the following months (based on current amazon rankings), I don't see the need of a price cut any time soon unless microsoft does another desperate pricecut.

I'm not saying there WILL be a price drop, I'm just saying if there is it would be better to drive sales prior to Christmas and then let the exclusives drive even more sales through Christmas. That way they can maintain great sales for much longer rather than risk shortages because both exclusives and a price drop hit at the same time of year.

maybe I see things different but IMO pricecut doesn't work or has the same effect on people when it's new vs it has been on the market a little bit longer and even tough August could be considered to be in the holiday period, sales don't really explode until end of october so a pricecut in August could start things strong and finished the holiday season strong, I don't considered August as part of the holiday period.
