Forums - Microsoft - 360 to get a $50 price drop?

I wonder how the price drop will affect all the models. I will probably pick up a 360 eventually to play all the JRPG's I missed out on. Might have to go with the core though and the by then ludicrously cheap memory cards just to save some dough though.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

wow 100 euros in europe ?

In a way, it is expected, europe is Sony/nintendo territory so they truly need something to boost the sales.

Core at 199euros = good for Xbox360 sales

Time to Work !

Is it confirmed that the Elite and core are also getting 50 dollar cuts?

Beyond that, good luck paying 250$ for the core and not having to pay extra to actually save stuff...

I think many assumed the 80 gb would be at 500 dollars after the 60 gb unit runs out before this move ever happened.



Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

Just got this ad from one of our biggest electronic stores here in Holland and the 360 Premium is advertised for 349,- euro's. Also HD-DVD player for only 166 euro's. It does not say a price drop or anything but the 360 is priced for 50 euro under the normale retail price. So maybe a $/€ 50 price cut worldwide? Here's a pic from the ad.



You aint found shit!

Does that seriously say "Cheap Ass Gamer"??  Or is that a watermark added by the person who scanned it?



lol lol lol I didn't notice that the first time lol... I think it's the guy who scanned it lol....

and if price drop it is i'm pretty sure you gonna have a second one before christmas especialy with the new chips if they come in time... LGC and TGS will be the time to do it.... LGC for a price drop in north america and europe and TGS for a major operation in japan.... and if they don't it's because they feel like they can still make more dough thanks to the exclu for chrismas than Sony and will do it during the first or second quarter of 2008 and just keep the 50 drop for now...
