| Ssyn said: Microsoft would price cut after Sony; no way in hell the other way around. The U.S. is Microsoft's only area they can win in and if the U.S. dollar is doing nothing but getting weaker they will start to lose money off U.S. sales. But it is very unlikely they will cut prices before we get out of our recession. |
They have more revenue streams than Sony - Xboxlive and a more developed download area, and their console has been out longer and has only recieved a $50 price cut in all this time. It is well overdue for a price reduction and even if they could only manage a $25 cut, it would be significant enough for people who don't want to spend any more money than they have to.
Tease.
