Lets not forget that the price cut is TEMPORARY. Once the existing 60gig models are sold out, it reverts to the OLD price (+ free game).

If you think this price drop is temporary you got another thing coming. The 600 dollar version has MS pack in game in it and it says limited edition on the box.

The new pricepoint is 500 dollars for the console alone and if the 60 gb gets phased out then the 80 gb is going to be 500 dollars.

Also, Sony said they aren't phasing out the 60 gb version.

Are you even paying attention to what you're typing?
