I will gladly play a match of Pong if you discover the meaning of a poll.

Only if needed to outsell Sony.

no i dont, its possible but if it was quiz question or something id say no

the new 360 250gb already got a price cut at E3 when it was announced at 299$ super elites were 349$ plus they added wifi, touch sensitive buttons and 2 more usbs

i can understand the old skus getting a price cut but this is a totally new 360 we cant use past data to say this year MS cuts there prices b/c last year they didnt its a new ball game everything starts from scratch now

also theyve said that the 360 has another 5 yrs left or that kinect will make the 360 last for another 5yrs something like this i believe this also i see no new consoles coming out from sony or MS till 2014 this makes me believe MS needs to save there price cuts for later down the line when its competitor sony drops there price b/c if MS were to drop it this yr there will be little left to do in 2011 and beyond when MS are really are going to need help

if anything i see the 250gb going down to $250 but the new 360 arcades staying at $200 but will have alot more features than the past arcades think incultion of a HDD just like sony they have 2 skus separated at $50 by HDD size

the best time to drop the price of the new arcade would be at launch it wouldnt make sense for it to release in sep for 199$ and then a few weeks later go to 149$ what was the point in having it 199$ a few weeks ago? so come fall if we see it launch at $199 it would make it more unlikely to get a 50$ in a few weeks

im just talking about the HW sold separately i havent given any thought to bundle pricing my guess for kenict bundles would be another 100$ on top of that to make $300 and $350 or $399

Yeah.

I expect the pricecut to be announced.

Kinect pricing to be announced.

Kinect 360 Bundles to be announced.

All at Gamescom.

Although, after the added value to the console, i would only expect a small cut. $50 probably. They will want to keep with the current profitable 360 plan IMO.

So what are your predicitons for those?

Let's assume Slim 250GB will drop to $250. Then what will stand alone Kinect cost and what will the 250GB Kinect bundle cost u believe?

Absolutely no idea. Way too many price rumors are being thrown around.

I would guess anywhere from $50 to $100 would be ideal for it. But I could see it going to $150. No idea at all though...

Aren't there 2 versions of it though? A "Special" version with the motorised moving thing?
