Its quite possible Sony won't make any money directly from MGS4, if the licencing fees were sacrificed as part of the exclusivity payment. I don't know. To my mind, I still think Sony will cut the PS3's price in November. I don't think they are going to be willing to just take an MS price cut on the chin. Too much userbase could be lost.

You heard Howard Striger. Even if M$ has a price cut, I don't think Sony can/will follow suit. I don't think they even want to have a drastic increases in console sales because that means a drastic increase in losses. That said, I now think the ps3 is really going to be around for a very long time. I don't see any need to upgrade after playing MGS4. If there must be a new generation of PS, Sony would definitely take the Nintendo route and profit off console sales. Even M$ would probably do the same.
