not happening WW this yr i promise

$50 cut this fall and again next fall i believe all 3 will get a $50 cut this yr

the wild cards are 360 with a HDD going to 200 and arcade gets axed and the PS3 going to 200, 360 with a HDD going to 200 is more possible of happening in my eyes

 

if i were sony id do 50 everywhere WW except americas and $100 off for americas this fall, similar to how the 360 is cheaper in EU than the ps3 and wii compared else where WW

I voted 2014 but I don't know.  I kinda like the idea of PS3 being the premium gaming system.  Selling it for cheap makes it seem kinda.......cheap.



If the PS3 drops to 199 this year, the NGP is gonna look silly at the 299.

I do think PS3 will drop to 249 in 2011.



PS3 will drop dowbn to US$199 when The PS4 is anounced or just before it is anounced.

so I would say late 2012 erly 2013.

It depends on what Microsoft does.  Probably next year 2012.  That's what I voted anyways.  It really does depend on what Microsoft does though, and they tend not to drop prices until necessary.

The people saying Xbox is $100 cheaper though, come on, it's a crap unit with a four gig hard drive.  Cant even download DLC with that.  The 360 and the PS3 basically cost the same price.

The PS3 may have 90 less gigs, but at least it's compatible with external hard drives and accepts any SATA drives as well.  And it has Blu-Ray.

That's strange didn't you used to have in the signature something along the lines of "2011 PS3 will be $199 and sales will explode" or was that 2012? 



Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

The end of world is in 2012 so they better hurry up with price cuts.



more than half of the people said this year or next year lol.

you guys expect too much for your money.
