It amazes me the mental gymnastics some Xbox fans go through to claim Xbox never gets a price cut. They did it last gen with the "just replacing SKUs" argument, and they're doing it this gen with the "unbundling of Kinect" excuse. The XBO has had a $150 price cut since launch, just get over it. Just like if the more desired SKU gets a price cut, while the most bare bones SKU remains $199, that's still a price cut

Did Sony call it a "feature removal" when they dropped the price back then by removing BC for ps2 games, or memory card slots, or usb ports? 

Cause I remember the term "price cut" being used. 

 

I guess "unbundling" is the new word for price cut and we missed the memo. 

Exactly.  And PS fans weren't playing games trying to claim it wasn't a price cut.  We knew what it was.  Never in the history of gaming has a console's fans tried to argue so hard that their system has not gotten a price cut.  I guess we have a new breed that came about last gen.
